A lot of references are made to, what is called 'the most outstanding church building in the Hebrides, in canmore database (NG08SW 7.00) with a serie of nice photos of the in- and exterior. No mentioning of a carved stone in the tower though. There were three major restaurations which took place in 1784, 1787 and 1873. Now in the latter year the significance of carved stones were known but, apart from that, I can fully understand why this marked stone of different colour was choosen as a corner stone. There are more 'disc-like' cups known, mainly in the Highland region, and we have added less significant ones to BRAC. So for us: its a possibly re-used/shaped block with a disc-like cup and ring. Cheers, Jan PS: 1speed; is it OK with you when we use some of your pics on BRAC? http://rockartuk.fotopic.net Thanks! "Less significant ones"? Wow!!! Thanks for the insight, Jan. By all means feel free to use my pics if you want. I only actually took the three I've posted here - if you want the full size originals just give me a shout and I'll email them to you.
