Loanhead Of Daviot submitted by Suncircle49 on 23rd Aug 2022. 19/06/2019 08.41: A beautiful sunny morning, perfect for flying a drone. The aerial photos showed clearly the shadow in the slit of the recumbent, ending midway along its length. However, what was interesting was the shadows of the standing stones which touched the inner ring of the RSC. The next morning at Easter Aquhorthies I saw similar shadows.

Log Text: All very new posh presentation showing through the ages.
If you like a romantic Lord of the rings type view of the Neolithic, with ‘ceremonial’ musical accompaniment you’ll love it. You may go away with the idea that all neolithic people did was stand around chanting and burning things.
If you ever went to the old museum you will miss the coracle, lithophone and swan bone flute.

Kemp Howe submitted by nicoladidsbury on 29th Mar 2004. This is the remains of what must have been a beautiful stone circle. The stones are pink granite and have a lovely glow. Unfortunately the ambience has been shattered by the "wonderful" victorians, who built the railway on top of it.
