In the lower part of the field that lies immediately S. of the ruined house of Glen Ellrig there is a standing stone measuring 3 ft. 3 in. in height, I ft. 3 in. in breadth and 9 in. in thickness. It is probably not a prehistoric monument.

Standing Stone, Glen Ellrig 2.

This stone stands on a knoll overlooking the River Avon, in the centre of a small wood enclosed by a drystone dyke, and 320 yds. nearly due S. of the ruined house of Glen Ellrig. It is a slab of freestone with one upper corner broken off, and measures 4 ft. 6 in. in height, 1 ft. 8 in. in width, and 6 ½ in. in thickness. Like its neighbour (above), this stone is probably not a prehistoric monument.
