This recumbent stone circle at Midmar Kirk is likely to date from the Bronze Age and consists of eight stones making an incomplete ring with a diameter of 17m. Midmar Kirk was built deliberately closely to the circle due to the 8th century belief that the monument was a druid religious structure. At the time Druidism was thought to be an offshoot of christianity.
