What is recorded here
CrookedStane Rig reaches a height of approximately 300 metres and is part of the Southern Uplands geological formation, characterised by folded sedimentary rocks. Its name may derive from a local standing stone or irregular terrain, though specific folklore is not widely recorded; it matters as a modest but distinctive landmark within the South Lanarkshire landscape.
