This stone was found at the farm of the same name at roughly NJ692276 but moved to its present location a long time ago. It is now located by the start of the parking spaces in the driveway to Kinellar House just off the A96. Its conditionis not particularly good - the top is supposedly a mirror case with a double crescent near the bottom with a crudely drawn oblong (a later addition) in between.
