    This stone is now located in the mort-house just to the East of the entrance to Abdie Old Kirk. Both side are apparently carved but only one is visible without a couple of strong men to assist in moving/holding it.

    The stone was previously re-used as a sundial and is defaced by markings associated with this and a surveyor's benchmark.

    For information-
    This stone was uncovered in a roadside hedge during the 1950s by my great grandfather at the Grange of Lindores, while working as a forester on the local estate. It was removed to its current location then to help shelter it from the elements
