    Tips

    Whitehill is a good example of a recumbent stone circle. That doesn't mean the stones are all fallen down; it refers to a large stone laid on its side at the southern side of the circle. The recumbent stone is flanked on either side by a large upright flanking stone. In the case of Whitehill one of the flanking stones has fallen, as have several of the other stones arranged around a raised bank.
