  6. Part of the Ring of Brodgar stone circle, superbly located between the Loch of Stenness and the Loch of Harray on Orkney's West Mainland. When erected, over 4,000 years ago, 60 stones stood here: now there are 36. More pics and info: undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/wes

  16. We found this A/P etching by Dennis Ward in a vintage place in Leith today. Titled ‘Confrontation at Brodgar, Orkney’, it has a brooding light-and-darkness quality reminiscent of many of Orkney’s landscapes.

    It turns out Ward was latterly Professor Emeritus of Russian Studies at Edinburgh University, and in fact the first Professor of Russian there, and was chair of Edinburgh Printmakers in the late 1990s.

  21. @Broadfork @mark_ohe
    Yes, pretty much. Those in the second pic aren't at Stenness, though, but the Ring of Brodgar, less than a mile up the road from Stenness. That part of Orkney Mainland was very busy in Neolithic times, and there's an amazing collection of remains.
    Here are those stones in May this year from a different angle.
