Clach nam Breatann, Ancient boundary marker in Glen Falloch, Scotland

The stone marker rises 12 feet high with a base circumference of 180 feet, standing prominently on the slopes of Glen Falloch between Crianlarich and Inverarnan.

The megalith marked the territorial boundaries between three ancient kingdoms: Dal Riata, Alt Clut, and the Pictish lands approximately 1500 years ago in Scotland.

The stone represents early Scottish land demarcation practices, reflecting how different groups established their territories through permanent geographical markers in the landscape.

Located at coordinates 56.357497, -4.693122, the stone marker requires navigation through the countryside paths and consideration of local weather conditions for safe access.

The surrounding grassy mound contains numerous boulders, leading to ongoing discussions about whether these formations occurred naturally or through deliberate human placement.

Location: Scotland
