NN85SE 24 c. 884 521.

A steatite cup-shaped lamp with a perforated lug handle and chevron decoration, found at Edradynate (NN 884 521) by Major Neil Stewart-Meiklejohn, Aberfeldy, was donated to the National Museum of Antiquties of Scotland (NMAS) by Mrs M E C Stewart.

Major Meiklejohn has left Edradynate, but according to his former housekeeper (Mrs Cargill, Edradynate) he had a collection of items from Edradynate Castle (see NN85SE 33) of which this lamp may have been one.
