Although Dunnicaer is still inaccessible, the grass-covered remains of a small sub-circular structure can be seen at its NE end.
The five Pictish symbol stones are still at Banchory House. Four of them are built into the main wall of the garden on the east side of the present tennis-court, while the other is in the ground at the 'Italian Garden' on the NE side of the main house. All are in an excellent state of preservation. NJ90SW 6 Also in the main garden there is a cup-marked stone, of unknown provenance.
The owner of Banchory House has specially requested that the position of the stones should not be published.
Visited by OS (R D) 28 July 1965.
