Inveravon (1) submitted by wallace : The four stones have been moved from their old location outside the church to a new location inside an old entrance to the church. The stones have strategically placed lights to show off the designs to their best. (Vote or comment on this photo)

One of a collection of four: this and stone no.2 are reputed to have been part of the foundations of the previous church.

I visited the given location (NJ 188 376) and found nothing. I spoke to the occupant of a nearby house who told me he had farmed land around there for years and had never heard of any such stone.
I suspect this page is meant to refer to Stone No.2 of the four pictish symbol stones mounted on the outer south wall of Inveravon church, in which case the location given is merely a typo for NJ 182 376.
