Class I Pictish symbol stone. A slab of blue mica schist, it was recovered from the foundations of the northeast corner of the old parish church in circa 1800 and now stands within the porch of the new church, built into a wall. Its precise find-spot could not be ascertained. It bears an eagle above a chariot and z-rod with floriated ends. The symbols have been blacked-in.
