Moss Farm Stone
Date Added: 26th Sep 2010
Site Type: Standing Stone (Menhir)
Country: Scotland (Isle of Arran)
Visited: Yes on 8th Sep 2008
Moss Farm Stone submitted by AngieLake on 8th Sep 2008. This is the view of Moss Farm standing stone looking towards a boulder which has been inscribed as a present-day memorial. (Hence the fencing around it.)
I wasn't sure if the boulder was brought there recently or always stood in that place, to the NE of the standing stone.
(The flat face viewed here is the stone's West face, the other facing East.)

Tormore 2
Date Added: 26th Sep 2010
Site Type: Chambered Cairn
Country: Scotland (Isle of Arran)
Visited: Yes on 9th Sep 2008
Tormore 2 submitted by AngieLake on 9th Sep 2008. Going by my sketch on the day, this view is looking towards a gap in the hills to the NE.
[Checked this site grid ref on www.danu.co.uk/gallery/info/stones/mosscairn.html. Calling it "Moss Farm Cairn", "grid ref NR 90590 32367", they say that it is: "An excavated cairn circle which lies in a field south of trackway to Machrie Moor just west of Moss Farm."
It was definitely between Moss Farm Road Circle and the main Machrie Moor circles.]

Dunchraigaig Cairn submitted by AngieLake on 25th Sep 2008. Walked past this one on the way to Ballymeanoch monuments in 2002. Maybe it suffers from lack of interest because of visitors' urge to see the other site?

Mardon Down N
Date Added: 26th Sep 2010
Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: England (Devon)
Visited: Yes on 21st Nov 2008
Mardon Down N submitted by AngieLake on 21st Nov 2008. Mardon Down Cairn Circle (N) on the lower northern slopes of the ridge, overlooking the rest of Devon. As a guide, Cheriton Bishop, on the A30, would be in the distance here.
To access this site, keep going north on a narrower track when by Giant's Grave, instead of following the main ridgeway path. As seen here, the track then heads away diagonally to the right, and rejoins the main ridgeway track, going downhill towards the menhir 'Headless Cross'.
