NN72SE 9 7702 2204.
(NN 7707 2206) A very definite, rather circular hillock called Tom-na-Chessaig is close to the river Earn a few yards south of the lane between the Public Hall in Burrell Street, Comrie and the east wall of the U F Church. It is said to be the site of a stone circle which was partially destroyed when the church was built. One great mass of whinstone, with a jumper hole in it still exists.
