Cnoc Dubh

Stone Circle

BigSweetie Feb 23, 2004

A stone circle once stood here on the knoll known as Cnoc Dubh (black hill). The stones were removed early in the 19th century to build Balnadrum farmhouse, and Cnoc Dubh was levelled to build a tennis court in what is now the grounds of the Pitlochry Hydro.
