East Moor stone row

East Moor stone row submitted by TheCaptain on 25th May 2010. When visiting East Moor stone row on Sunday 23 May, I found the row easily without resorting to my new GPS.
While part way walking along the row, which I thought would be recorded as a part of my track, an idea came to me. My new toy could be used to record each stone as I found it by making a waypoint.
Now its just a case of figuring out what to do with all the data. Here is a first attempt to show the results by simply reading the data into Google Earth.

Log Text: This is not an easy row to reach. Car parking is available at SS 83523 42234. From here follow the footpath west past the Madacombe stone row and then head towards the footbridge at SS 80325 42848. After crossing the river follow the footpath to SS 79811 42666. Then head north west to the row. Having made the effort it is worth having look at the nearby rows at Tom’s Hill and Trout Hill.

A closer view of the stones
It is said that these stones were erected here by Fingal and his fellow hunters to suspend a pot in which whole deer were cooked over a fire to make venison stew.

Eyre Stone Rows

Country: Scotland (Isle of Raasay)

Eyre Stone Rows submitted by SandyG on 6th Jan 2018. Length of field boundary previously identified as a double stone row. View from south east (Scale 1m).
(View photo, vote or add a comment)
Log Text: The feature described in Canmore forms part of a field boundary that extends further west to NG 57452 34870. The length that was previously described is hidden by bracken making photography difficult in the summer months. The features described are however all discernible. The pairs of stones described are almost touching and represent two sides of an incomplete wall. Walls of this type are present in the vicinity and it was probably intended that the wall would have butted a nearby field boundary at around NG 57541 34821. This is definitely a field boundary and not a stone row.

Fernworthy stone row SE
Date Added: 14th Jan 2018

Country: England (Devon)
Visited: Yes on 28th Apr 2013. My rating: Condition 1 Ambience 3 Access 4
Fernworthy stone row SE submitted by SandyG on 28th Sep 2014. Tiny stones protruding through the turf make this row difficult to photograph. A useful reminder however that many rows include stones which would have required very little effort to move and raise. This does not detract from their significance although it is perhaps remarkable that they have survived so well for so long.

Finlaggan submitted by Andy B on 13th Jun 2011. Finlaggan Standing Stone
A solitary Standing Stone , naturally predating the Lordship of the Isles. As ever various theories surround the placing and use of the stone. However in 1994 Geophysic surveys by the "Time Team" suggest that there may have originally been a line of stones marking the way to Jura.

Log Text: Limited car parking is available at NT 95789 02379. From here follow the footpath south westward to the row. In common with most rows next to forestry watch out for ticks, but another hazard here was clouds of flies – fortunately of the non biting variety.
