Glamis Manse Cross Slab

Description

This impressive Pictish cross-slab stands in a private garden. Tours have been organised by Historic Environment Scotland on behalf of the owner.

On one side the stone bears an elaborately decorated cross and characteristic Pictish carvings including mythical beasts, a deer, triple disc symbol, and two people fighting with axes. On the other side there is a snake, a fish (probably a salmon) and a mirror.
