A burst of sun through the morning cloud catches the Kintraw Standing Stone with its adjacent trees and adds a golden glow to the numerous Gorse bushes,,,,,,,, Large view if possible please Stopping at a conveniently positioned lay-by and a short walk down hill to grab a couple of shots between the traffic. The Pip has been previously posted, but it gives a larger view of the stone. Standing at the head of Loch Craignure the stone is part of a complex that includes three burial cairns, It is a slender monolith that stands 13 feet (3.9m) high and is 3'6" wide. the stone is thought to have been erected around 1800 BC. Finally some relaxing music while you view, Solitude, Joan Chamorro www.youtube.com/watch?v=n1ppw5ckhGo

The prehistoric remains here include a large cairn which has been badly robbed of its stones,This is at Kintraw, in Argyll and Bute, Scotland, But for Iperrnity purposes it hopefully serves as a wall, The Pip shows another part of the site, Which includes the 4-meter-High Standing Stone of Kintraw. It has been suggested that the stone marked the backsight position for viewing the setting sun at the winter solstice, HWW to everyone.
