The six stone circles on Machrie Moor are thought to have been erected in the Neolithic era, in about 2000 BC. They are one of Arran’s most marvelled and studied archaeological sites. To get to the stones is only a 30 min walk via a clearly marked path from the dedicated car park in Machrie (which is on google maps). The archaeological landscape includes six stone circles, standing stones, burial cairns and cists as well as hut circles and a field system, all dating between 3500 and 1500 BC. The stone circles were preceded by timber circles, in the same patterns, suggesting the site was associated with religious activities going back 4500 years. Human burials and cremations were also found in the circles, but placed there long after they were first built.

Lovely flat walk. Dogs must be kept on leads. Information boards on the different standing stone circles.
