Fettercairn, Burgh and Market Cross NO 650 735 NO67SE 8
Fettercairn was erected a burgh of barony in 1504. A market cross standing in the village square is said to have been brought to Fettercairn in 1730 from the burgh of Kincardine (NO67SE 5); the head of the cross, however, which bears the date 1670 and appears to be later than the shaft, was probably made for Fettercairn.
