Aberlemno Pictish symbol stone stands next to the B9134 road outside the village. At 5 feet tall it is carved with symbols, a double-disc, serpent and Z-rod. It was probably a boundary stone that was Christianised in the 6th-8th century. On the reverse side there are cup-marks which could mean the stone itself is prehistoric.
