Scope and Content Cross-slab known as Fowlis Wester 1 at Fowlis Wester, Perth and Kinross The Fowlis Wester cross-slab is the tallest symbol stone there is. It is also unusual in that the arms project out from the side of the slab. The stone was moved into the Parish Kirk, though a replica stands nearby on the original site. This is a drawing of the stone which appeared in John Stuart's 1856 publication 'The Sculptured Stones of Scotland'. This side is carved with a number of figures, some of which are on horseback. Near the bottom is a crescent and V-rod and an eagle. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
