Newton House 1

This Class I symbol stone was recorded in 1760 on the march between Newton and Rothney around 0.8km west of the Newton Stone and around 1.6km south of Newton House. It was moved to the grounds of Newton House in 1794.

On the south face of the stone are carvings of a double disc over a serpent and Z-rod.
