Full Description
Pictish symbol stone with crescent and V-rod and notched rectangle and Z-rod. Said to have originally stood at Tom-a-Char (NJ 430 048) to the north west of Logie Coldstone, it was later built into the wall of the Mill of Newton and by 1903 it had been relocated to the grounds of Tillypronie House. In 2006 the stone was moved inside Migvie Church for protection (NJ40NW0042 // NJ 4367 0682). The stone is a whinstone.
