Leys of Marlee
Also known as Blairgowrie; Leys, Essendy Road; Ardblair
This splendid-looking collection of six stones in a ring about 50 feet across is quite...umm...exciting to view as there is a road running through the centre of it and the traffic moves very fast. Most of the stones have been moved and re-erected at various times, some of them having been hit by fast-moving vehicles. The stones are between four and six feet in height.
