Standing Stones -Baliscate, Tobermory, Mull

Alignment NM499542*

How to find : One kilometre south of Tobermory on the A848 look for a rough road on the right at Baliscate. You may wish to walk up this road rather than drive it. The stones are visible in the field to the right after 400m. (Site also referred to as 'Tobermory'). 

Best time of year to visit : Any clear night or midday. 

Aros Park

The park is very well maintained by Forest Enterprise and has been developed as a recreational woodland. The company has gone to a lot of trouble to provide good parking, disabled access, clear, unobstructed paths, barbeque facilities and toilets.  All these are free of charge. 

 

The park is on the site of Aros House, and the Allan family developed the grounds during the period of 1874 to 1959.  The house was unfortunately demolished; however, the heritage of this magnificent woodland remains.  There still remain some buildings associated with the house, for example, the generator shed by the stream which gave power to the house.
