No.3 There was dug up in 1943 in the manse garden at Menmuir, a cross-slab. It is a defective square about 1ft across, but has been part of a larger monument. It is of grey sandstone and was originally 3 1/4ins thick. One side bears part of a rather crudely drawn hunting scene in flat relief and on the short edge part of the original rounded border moulding. Below the scene is a narrower moulding separating it from a lower panel. The other side has had its carving almost obliterated, but there is trace of a meander pattern on a curve, probably part of a cross-head. It is now on a staircase window-ledge with stones 4 and 5.

R B K Stevenson 1961.
