Archaeology Notes

NS67SE 25 67 74.

(Area NS 6774). An inscription was copied at Auchendavy Farm in 1826 by the Rev J Skinner but the stone was apparently lost before 1844.

It is thought to have been a tombstone as the cemetery at Auchendavy (see NS67NE 13) is known to have been disturbed (Macdonald 1934) however its layout and shape suggests that it was a dedication inscription (Davies 1976).

G Macdonald 1934; A S Robertson 1973; R W Davies 1976.
