Tyrebagger, Stone circle on Tyrebagger Hill near Dyce, Scotland.

The circular monument consists of eight upright stones and a central recumbent stone weighing 24 tons, arranged in an 18.5-meter diameter formation.

Built during the Bronze Age, this stone circle near Aberdeen was transformed into a cattle enclosure during later periods through interior modifications.

The monument belongs to a collection of over 70 recumbent stone circles found across Aberdeenshire, reflecting prehistoric ceremonial practices of the region.

Visitors need to walk 15 minutes from the parking area near Aberdeen Airpark, following farm tracks and crossing a field to reach the stone circle.

The grey granite recumbent stone contrasts with red granite orthostats, creating a distinctive color pattern within the prehistoric monument.
