Clach an Tiompain, 'The Eagle Stone', 'The Sounding Stone' or 'Marriage Stone' is a Class I Pictish stone located off Nutwood Lane in the village. It dates from the 6th-7th century AD and stands upon a mound (tumulus). An eagle and a horseshoe are carved on the stone which is some 2 feet 8 inches high. It may have originally stood lower down the valley whence it marked the graves of Scottish clansmen killed in battle (1411). One local legend associates the stone with the Brahan Seer (Coinneach Odhar (d 1660).
