Leys Of Marlee

Nearest Town: Blairgowrie, Perthshire
OS Grid Reference: NO 16 04 38
Directions: The B947 heading west from Blairgowrie passes directly through the centre of this circle! I would advise parking in the gateway of the waste plant some 50 m further down the road. Traffic is sparse, but fast, so take care when walking in the road.
Site Notes: Why? Why did they have to drive a road straight through this circle? I do despair at the idiocy of our more recent ancestors compared to the people who originally constructed this site. Anyway, sometimes referred to as Ardblair, this is a cool little six stone circle that you can drive through as many times as you like. The stones have been moved somewhat to allow for the road, and one has been poorly repaired, but the circle is worth visiting nonetheless.
