hallsifer visited on 29th Jul 2022 - their rating: Cond: 4 Amb: 4 Access: 5 Gorgeous stone that’s very easy to find with the driveway to Brodie castle going right past it, makes for fab access. There’s an info plaque that’s brief but still great, ogham is unfortunately incredibly faded away.

Brodie, Moray NH95NE 3 - “Rodney’s Stone”; Class 2; Ogham is on each side of the front and on the back of the slab and considered to be the longest Ogham inscription in Pictland. The characters are well weathered and include “EDDARRNONN”.
The Ogham characters seemingly spell out a personal name. The same characters are on the Scoonie Stone and are considered to be a Brythonic personal name.
