Hi guys!
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?
