A village in an Aberdeenshire parish of the same name, Lumphanan lies 3 miles (5 km) north west of Torphins and 27 miles (43 km) west of Aberdeen. The village developed as a railway settlement in the 19th Century, but its church, rebuilt in 1762 and enlarged in 1851, is thought to have been originally dedicated to St Finan in pre-Reformation times. To the south west is the Peel of Lumphanan, a flat-topped mound or motte on which there once stood a 13th-century fortification and a 15th century manor house called Halton House which remained standing until 1782. A cairn known as Macbeth’s Cairn, situated between Lumphanan and Perkhill to the north-west, marks the spot where Malcolm Canmore is said to have killed Macbeth and on 21st July 1296 King Edward I of England is thought to have received the submission of Sir John de Malevill at the Peel of Lumphanan.

A dilapidated recumbent stone circle with an original diameter of about 45 feet. The recumbent stone faces SW and is 10ft long, 4 1/2ft high and up to 3ft thick. The flanking pillars have gone and all the stones of the circle except six earth-fast stones set close together on the west side, three of which remain erect. The most northwesterly stone is 5 3/4ft high, 3 1/4ft broad and 1 1/2ft thick. The recumbent stone has six cup marks on its outer face, though four are very shallow and lichen grown. Nothing is known locally of any finds (J Ritchie 1918; 1919).
