Threestoneburn submitted by Creative Commons on 19th May 2013. Also known as Ilderton Stone Circle. The view here is easterly, with your back to the forest fence, looking back down the valley towards Threestoneburn House.
Some of my friends taken on the long walk here would have said, "OK, it's a stone circle but it's hardly Stonehenge or Calanais, is it?".
No it's not Stonehenge or Calanais; it's a north-east stone circle. We do it differently up here. We put rough stones in a rough circle. Job done. Not for us this hacking great lumps of stone...

Log Text: This is not an easy row to get to and some might wonder whether the effort is worth it. Bridleways shown on Ordnance Survey maps do not exist and visiting it on the hottest day of the year is not recommended. Sadly in common with many rows next to forestry you will need to watch out for ticks. The route described below worked for me, but alternatives may exist. Park at NT 96325 23259. Cross the bridge and follow the footpath to NT 96195 22029. From here the best way is to follow the quad bike track on the southern side of the wall. This will take you to the access gate into Threestoneburn Wood at NT 96970 20964. From here follow the forest track to the row and circle.

Tom Nan Carragh

Tom Nan Carragh submitted by cosmic on 4th Aug 2004. Tom Nan Carragh at NJ011246 in Highland region is a dog leg of three stones. The end stones are not visible form each other due to the lie of the land although all three stones are about seven feet high and about 100m apart. The bearing between the East stone and the middle is about 40 degrees whilst between the middle and West it is nearer 80 degrees.

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 west to SS 80073 43241. The row is a short distance to the east. Having made the effort it is worth having look at the nearby rows at East Pinford and Trout Hill.

Log Text: This line of stones is probably entirely the result of field clearance. The largest stone at the northern end clearly sits on top of stones similar in size to those which lie in a line parallel to the field wall. The proximity of the stone circle has probably influenced the interpretation of this site as prehistoric. Whilst a prehistoric date cannot be wholly discounted the feature as a whole has the appearance of being the result of field clearance.
Tormore 2

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.]

Log Text: Car parking is available at ND 16869 50479. From here follow the wind farm road to ND 15079 49832 then head west towards the row. In 2016 a twin wire electric fence was encountered but was high enough to pass under. Obviously care should be taken and it also best to assume that it is live.

Log Text: Parking is available at NB 09964 36016 and access to the field at NB 10019 35867.
The stones appear to denote the edges of narrow, parallel banks which are on the same alignment as the lazy beds in this area. Whilst the reason why the banks in this area were denoted with edge set stones is not clear, it is possible to be confident that this is not a prehistoric stone alignment. The adjacent cairn may be the result of field clearance.
