Easthill stone circle (grid reference NX91937388), also known as the Seven Grey Stanes, is a small oval stone circle 3¾ miles south-west of Dumfries.[1][2][3] Eight stones of a probable nine remain.[4][1] Despite being considerably smaller, the shape and orientation of the circle link it to the nearby Twelve Apostles and the other large ovals of Dumfriesshire.[5][1] It is a scheduled monument.[6]
