Standing Stone
About
Found on Isle of Arran, Standing Stone carries the postcode KA27 8EB and is reachable from the island's main settlements at Brodick, Lamlash, Whiting Bay, Lochranza, Corrie, Blackwaterfoot and Kilmory. The site is an attraction, and 15 reviewers have given it a 4.2 out of 5 score.
Standing stones of this kind mark Arran's earlier inhabitants, and the setting on open ground means visitors walk in from the nearest road rather than arriving at a built entrance. The 4.2 out of 5 rating from 15 reviews suggests a modest but steady flow of visitors rather than a crowded draw.
First-time visitors should expect rough ground underfoot and changeable weather, so waterproof layers and sturdy shoes make the outing easier. There are no facilities on site, and the surrounding farmland is working land.
Arran's position off the British coast means rain falls throughout the year and Atlantic gales are common in autumn and winter. Island life centres on harbours, lifeboat stations and the RNLI, with regattas and fetes in summer. English is the main language, with Scottish Gaelic on some Hebridean islands, and seafood is central to island food, from crab and lobster to scallops, mackerel and oysters landed by small boats.
