Cullerlie Stone Circle’s eight stones surround an area which was likely used for cremation. Eight small ring cairns within the stone circle were likely built later. Each contains a cremation. Cullerlie stands on a low gravel ridge at the bottom of a valley. It is possibly a later development of recumbent stone circle found in Aberdeenshire. These monuments were often designed to have impressive views to and from them. It is an unusual monument – there are few others like it in the region – but it may be that others were destroyed by agriculture or development in the past. Easily travelled to from Copper Beech.
