A cist, c.7ft long by c.2ft broad, was discovered, about 6ft below the ground, in the area of the burying- ground at Coupar Angus but 'apparently beyond the limits of the abbey walls', in the summer of 1887. It had no cover but was paved, and the sides were made up of blue stone slabs, set up on edge.

A Hutcheson 1888
