Full Description
A cross-incised stone, one of two cross stones now in the walls of the steading at Milton of Crathes (One of the two crosses recorded as NO79NE0018). It is built into a low wall opposite the door of the poultry house. The equal-armed cross lies within a circle, dividing it into three equal parts in which there is a small circular hollow. The stone is said to have originally stood near Canniehill (Candieshill NO7496) at the side of an old drove road about half a mile from its present site, to mark the spot where some traveller dies.
