Easter Aquhorthies Stone Circle

Easter Aquhorthies Stone Circle
Inverurie, United Kingdom (GB)
Easter Aquhorthies is a stone circle located in the Scottish county of Aberdeenshire and dates back to the Neolithic era and the Bronze Age.

The stone circle is one of the best-preserved examples of a recumbent stone circle, and one of the few that still have their full complement of stones. The stone circle consists of a ring of nine stones, eight of which are grey granite and one red jasper. Two more grey granite stones flank a recumbent of red granite flecked with crystals and lines of quartz.
