The Breemie stanes form a modern stone circle built at Lyne of Skene, Aberdeenshire, Scotland in 2004. It was erected in 2004 on the land of farmer and landowner Allan Brownie, by Jason Schroeder, who organises visits to neolithic sites in the local area. The circle is inspired by the many recumbent stone circles in Aberdeenshire and has their typical features. Thus, the largest stone is a recumbent with a flanker on each side and the stones are graded in size, becoming smaller as the distance increases from the recumbent. There are eleven stones in total, all granite. Next to the circle, two labyrinths were constructed. It was built for a ceremony on summer solstice, the shortest night of 2004, which was attended by about 3,500 people.
