Questions about Beltany stone circle
Is Beltany stone circle on the National Inventory?
It is on the Sites and Monuments Record (DG070-026001-), the State’s list of archaeological sites.
Can you visit Beltany stone circle?
It can be seen from the street; whether you can go inside depends on its owner.
Is Beltany stone circle protected?
Being on the National Inventory or the Sites and Monuments Record is a record, not protection by itself: buildings are protected by their council’s Record of Protected Structures, which each council keeps and no national open list gathers, so this page can’t say which are on it.
