Loupin' Stanes NY 257 966 NY29NE 11 & 25 An oval circle, measuring 10.4m by 9.5m, is situated 570m NE of the Girdle Stanes (NY29NE 13 & 24). It consists of twelve stones set into a low bank 3m in thickness; two of the stones on the SW are taller (1.4m in height) than the others and appear to mark 'the entrance' to the circle. A group of boulders immediately to the SE has been claimed as a stone circle but they are merely glacial erratics.
