KlyghoarpRhu visited on 12th Jul 2014 - their rating: Cond: -1 Amb: 3 Access: 5 I visited this site in July, 2014, and spoke to the owners of the home here. They informed me that there was once one standing stone here, but it was moved to the Kirkhill churchyard, a short distance away. They were kind enough to give me directions.

New location is in the cemetery at Migvie Kirk, near the entrance. Not to be confused with the Pictish symbol stone held within the Kirk.
