Battle Moss Stone Rows
Date Added: 5th Aug 2011
Site Type: Multiple Stone Rows / Avenue
Country: Scotland (Caithness)
Visited: Yes on 21st Jul 2011. My rating: Condition 3 Ambience 4 Access 3
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.
