[Situation] About 1 mile N [North] by W. [West] of Craig (house).
A Small hill on the farm of Culcronchie its Surface Consists of RocKy heathy pasture. On it are two Semicircles Composed of large Stones about 3 to 10 feet apart from each other, No information Can be gleaned in the locality Respecting them. In a BooK Called "The Battle of Craignilder" Says "The hill of Culcronchie is Separated from the Door of "Cairnsmore." a deep Ravine of Flow Moss, and on the hill many large Stones. that at one time have evidently formed a Segment, if not a complete Circle, enclosing an area of about 30 yds, [yards]. for what purpose the erection Could have been Raised must ever remain a matter of conjecture. "The Stones are all of a great Size; &. have Stood from 3 to 4 feet assunder, It is within the Memory of Some of the oldest living (of?) being, in a more perfect State, but many of the Stones have now Rolled down the hill . Whether this has been a Celtic place of worship, or erected for defence, must ever Remain undecided". - |
