NT 54848 34177 These stones, which were assessed in May 2014, form a group of additions to the existing carved stone database. Seven of them were excavated by CFA Archaeology Ltd, and were catalogued at their warehouse. The remainder are located in Historic Scotland’s store in Edinburgh. Most of the stones in this group are unremarkable, with cylindrical column shafts and a vault rib included among the collection. One fragment of a column capital is worked in medium grained sandstone, and comes from the upper edge of a waterleaf capital, with just the tip of a fleshy leaf now remaining. This and other inventories of carved stones at Historic Scotland’s properties in care are held by Historic Scotland’s

Collections Unit. For further information please contact
