 The Bordastubble Standing Stone, it is claimed, is the largest standing stone in Shetland.
The massive and irregularly-shaped stone is a 12 foot high stone with a girth of 19-1/2 feet at its base and reaching its maximum girth and width of 22 feet at 4 feet above the ground.
It is packed at the base, but its major axis is now bent NW-SE.
