NX86NE 7 8657 6668.
A stone circle near Kirkgunzeon manse was destroyed between 1790 and 1870. (Information from J Gillespie)
F R Coles 1895
According to Mrs J Moffat (The Shop, Kirkgunzeon), the oldest inhabitant in the village, a circle of stones c.30 ft in diameter with a small mound in the centre stood on flat ground at NX 8657 6668. Over the years successive farmers have removed the larger stones and now only the slight mound, c.4.0 m diam. x 0.3 m high, with several clearance stones on top, survives to mark the site of the stone circle.
