There are many prehistoric monuments scattered across Kilmartin Glen, but perhaps the best known and most intriguing comprises the remains of two stone circles at Temple Wood. This may be because a stone circle is by its nature more interesting than a cairn, and there are the remains of two of them here. It may also be because an early landowner, Sir John Malcolm was so fascinated by the place he planted a wood around the circles at the end of the 1800s, which he named Temple Wood to reflect what he thought to be the purpose of the site.
