Strathgarry Farm standing stones is a Bronze Age monument comprising multiple upright stones situated in Perthshire, Scotland. The stones stand upon bedrock of the Argyll Group, a sequence of metamorphic rocks—psammite, semipelite and pelite—formed during the Neoproterozoic period. This ancient geological foundation has remained stable for over half a billion years, providing an enduring base for the monument's erection approximately 4,000 years ago. The site's location in the rolling terrain of Perthshire places it within a landscape rich in prehistoric activity, where Bronze Age communities established ritual and ceremonial places across the Scottish mainland.
The standing stones represent a significant form of monumental expression characteristic of Bronze Age Scotland, when communities marked significant locations with upright stones for purposes likely connected to ceremony, burial practice or territorial significance. The Argyll Group bedrock, formed through ancient processes of sedimentation and metamorphism, would have been known intimately by the Bronze Age peoples who selected this location.
The monument is protected by Historic Environment Scotland under reference SM9514, recognising its importance as a surviving example of Bronze Age monumental architecture and its contribution to understanding prehistoric settlement patterns and ritual practice in Perthshire.
