What is recorded here

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Stob Stones as Boundary Marker(s) (period Unassigned), Standing Stone(s) (prehistoric). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 10m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Stob Stones are likely prehistoric standing stones, possibly dating to the Neolithic or Bronze Age, and may have functioned as boundary markers or ritual monuments. Their exact meaning or use remains unclear, though such stones often held ceremonial or territorial significance in ancient Scottish landscapes.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
