The Dunning Stone

Ordnance Survey Map Reference NO019146

The stone looking east

The stone looking north


In the Perthshire village of Dunning, where the Dupplin Cross is housed in the local kirk, this stone stands just down the lane from the church a short distance into a field. There was a very limited area round about it, and several signs of damage in the form of scrapes and traces of orange paint show that the farmer here does not care for this megalith the way we would hope for. No distinguishable features apart from the damage.

This stone is linked with the Gray Stone due to the Battle of Duncrub, fought near here in 965 AD.
