(Location cited as NJ 702 659). A Class I stone, one of three found near by on the Moor of Carden, aws taken to Logie Elphinstone. It bears two series of symbols on one face, one apparently erased in favour of the other. The erased symbol seems to have been part of a double disc and Z-rod, but parts of it still show, as the erasing was not completely effective. This is overlain in part by the crescent and V-rod and in part by another double disc and Z-rod symbol. Above all the symbols is a wheel Ogam, an incised circle to the circumference of which six or seven Ogam cipher characters are appended.
