NO 5230 5600. In 1994 over 20 clear grooves (of varying lengths) were noted carved along at least two edges of a rectangular block built into a drystane dyke, at the left side of the entrance to a cottage just NE of the line of roadside Pictish symbol stones; only removal of this block would determine if it was the fragment of an ogam inscription or if the line of grooves had been made for a different purpose.
