The Drum Stone

Natural Rock Feature

Folklore

1411 was the year when battle of Harlaw took place slightly to the north of Inverurie. This stone had stood for centuries until this mob disturbed it's rest.

"Traditionally it was at this stone that the Laird Of Drum halted his men on their way to the battle of Harlaw. At this point he rested and arranged his affairs."
