Standing Stone / Menhir

As Mr Sweet has said, this is in the grounds of a school, so ensure that you ask before visiting. This is a large, almost triangular stone, around 8 feet tall, with no visible markings.

This stone originally stood at Wester Tarsappie (NO 1272 2102) until it was blown down in the winter of 1895-96. It now stands in the grounds of Craigclowan Preparatory School.
