Tullich

This Class I symbol stone was found in 1866 by the Reverend John Michie, minister of Dinnet, built into the north wall of the church where it was either being used as a lintel over a window or to block an old doorway. It was subsequently removed and placed in a railed enclosure against the north wall of the church along with several cross slabs. It is currently being stored off-site for conservation with plans to display it in a new shelter in the kirkyard.

The stone is carved with a double disc and Z-rod above a Pictish beast with a mirror below.
