Standing Stone, Fordell South Lodge.
On the crest of a rising ground immediately to the north of the railway bridge at Fordell South Lodge, and about 100 yards to the west of the Lodge gates, is a roughly rectangular block of sandstone. It is rudely weathered on the upper portions of its sides into a series of deep grooves, in the same manner as the cup-marked standing stone at Torryburn [NT08NW 3]. It has been set up without any apparent base-packing, at an elevation between the 100 and 150 feet contours and with its main axis due north and south. It is 6 feet 6 inches high above ground and has a girth of 8 feet 5 inches at the base, expanding to 9 feet 10 inches at the middle and then diminishing to approximately 6 feet at the much weathered top.
