Standing Stone in Perthshire. For this one Canmore say: Both the 1st and 2nd editions of the OS 6-inch map (Perthshire, 1866, sheet xcviii; 1902, sheet xcviii.NW) depict a standing stone on the South Inch; it has since been removed. The date and purpose of the stone are unknown, and it need not have been an antiquity.
