NJ65SE 12 6782 5051

Not to be confused with the similar monument at Tillyfourie (NJ61SW 3), to which the name 'Whitehill Wood' has also been applied.

(NJ 6782 5051) Stone Circle (NR) (six stones shown)

OS 6" map, Banffshire, 2nd ed., (1904)

Of this circle, shown on the OS 25" map as having eight stones, only seven remain, and of these only two are standing, each being 4ft high. It is not certain that the small stone on the NW - 'e' on the plan (Coles 1903) - is part of the circle.

F R Coles 1903.

No trace of this stone circle was found, despite thorough perambulation in the surrounding area.

Revised at 1/2500.

Visited by OS (WDJ) 14 September 1964.
