An oval slab of whinstone, with a Celtic cross incised on it. In the early 20th century the cross-marked stone was in use as the headstone of a grave, but has since been built into the west face of a low wall, which also supports four fine post-medieval graveslabs. The wall may mark the position of the east end of the former parish church of Coldstone, which is recorded as having stood a little north of the centre of the graveyard (NJ40NW0032) until demolished at the end of the 17th century when the parish was united with Logie. The slab bears a neatly carved relief Latin cross with hollows at the angles of the arms, set in a recessed background. Its presence in the churchyard suggests that this location has had an ecclesiastical association since at least the late 7th or early 8th centuries AD.
