Stone buildings in a grassy field.

Kirbuster is a farmhouse built in 1723 that now houses a Farm museum organised more or less along the lines of "put stuff in a room and let people look at it". We picked it randomly for a visit from the tourist map which showed it as close to the Earl's Palace at Birsay.

Green fields rising up a low hill.  A single standing stone is visible, surrounded by a low fence.
This is the Stone O'Quoybune which is almost entirely unremarkable but we stopped to take photos of it since it was between Birsay and Kirkbuster and I feel, in principle, one should stop and look at minor standing stones as one passes them.
