Hill o' Many Stanes, Archaeological stone site in Caithness, Scotland
The site contains over 200 stones systematically arranged in 22 parallel rows forming a fan pattern across the hillside slope.
Constructed approximately 4,000 years ago during the Bronze Age, these stones represent an organized human activity from prehistoric Scotland.
The stone formation provides evidence of early architectural planning and reflects the technical capabilities of Bronze Age communities in northern Scotland.
Located near Mid Clyth, visitors can access the site through a small parking area off the A9 road, with an information panel on location.
Local records from 1871 indicate the site originally contained up to 600 stones, suggesting a larger configuration extending toward the eastern section.
