Arthur's Stone submitted by hamish on 2nd Aug 2002. SO 318431.
Take the B4348 from Hay on Wye to Dorstone,go through the village and at a cross roads go straight on-there is a sign here.Follow this road and take the first turning to the left,about half a mile on the stones are on the left.Plenty of parking,wonderful views and peaceful.There is an information board here.
Afterwards go back to Dorstone and follow the signs to the pup also well worth the visit.

Auchterarder
Date Added: 12th Jan 2011
Site Type: Standing Stones
Country: Scotland (Perth and Kinross)
Visited: Yes on 28th Jul 2005
Auchterarder submitted by hamish on 28th Jul 2005. This is the stones just on the outskirts of Auchterarder, easy to see but not so easy to access. The one in the middle of the island is of course the first you visit the second on the edge of the hedge you can touch, but the third is most difficult with rusty barbed wire and nettles and brambles.
