| Barmore Fort | Hillfort | Scotland | Cowal | Saw from a distance | 21st Sep 2017 | 3 | 4 | 4 | Barmore Hillfort, Ormidale, Argyll: We saw this hillfort from a distance only.

| Ardachearanbeg Standing Stone | Standing Stone (Menhir) | Scotland | Cowal | Visited | 21st Sep 2017 | -1 | 4 | 4 | Ardachearanbeg Standing Stone, Argyll: Hunted all along the fence line, peering into the river and along the banks for around 100 metres each side of the grid reference and couldn’t find this stone. There was no phone signal, so wasn’t able to call up the Canmore record to double check. Later ... Read More |
