The three decorated stones at and around Balholmie House
This cup-and-ring marked stone was “raised” prior to 1867 by Mr A. Ferguson, school-master of Cargill.
It is recorded in Canmore under NMRS-number NO13NE 8 (Newbigging/Balholmie House) and NO13NW 9 (Balhomie/Balholmie).
The original finding place is not known and it is not clear when and why it was moved to Balholmie House.
From PSAS 6, 1864-6, plate V, fig. 3
