Tour Scotland photograph of the Orwell Standing Stones, Perthshire, Scotland. Drive from Milnathort towards Balgedie on the A911 and you pass, on your left, these Standing Stones. Both of these standing stones are of whinstone. The western one, rugged and angular, is over seven feet high, while, while the other, smooth sided, is over nine feet high. The discovery of cists and cremation patches in the same field in the early 19th century suggests that the stones have acted as a focus for such burials.
