A plain cross-slab (with the cross repeated on both sides of the stone) is to be seen "at the side of the Dunkeld road on the farm of West Haugh of Tulliemet, 10 or 12 yards from the high road and on the S side of it." It is said to have been connected with a chapel of St Maroc on the terrace above. The stone is 6' in height above ground and 8" - 10" thick.
