Borve Standing Stones

Site Type: Standing Stones

Visited: Yes on 26th Sep 2011
Borve Standing Stones submitted by Andy B on 26th Sep 2011. New Use for the Standing Stone at Borgh!
The 1940s OS map shows two standing stones at Borgh. The current map is correct in showing only one remaining upright - the southerly one has fallen over. It looks as though this remaining one could give way quite soon with this usage?

Battle Moss Stone Rows
Date Added: 17th Sep 2010
Site Type: Multiple Stone Rows / Avenue
Country: Scotland (Caithness)
Visited: Yes on 4th Jul 2006
Battle Moss Stone Rows submitted by Andy B on 4th Jul 2006. Very difficult to find, even with a map. Realising I was on the wrong side of the loch, and the other side was very marshy, I took this above telephoto shot of the row and gave up. Unless you are very dedicated, stick to the more impressive Hill O' Many Stanes nearby.
