In the heart of the village is the ancient Pictish cross and the slightly more recent 19th century post office, or as it's Categorically Listed, a "simple single-storey rubble domestic with attics...and the Standard K6 telephone kiosk. Designed by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott, 1935."
Just beyond them rests St. Bean Kirk...

...and just beyond it is an ancient, possibly Druid, stone circle and cairn.

Houses in the village often have names, like Blenkiron, Easter Cottage...
or Abercairney...
