Monument to William Dingwall Fordyce M.P. of Brucklay Castle (1836-1875), built in 1876-77 on the site of a stone circle. There is no trace of the stone circle as the stones were removed circa 1770 for the purpose of building the Free Church manse (NJ 8827 4788 - now in use as a care home). The monument was designed by James Matthews, in a Georgian style. It comprises a pinned squared granite ground floor with triple keyblocked archway leading to a spiral stair inside a brick well. There are two upper stages contained within a granite ashlar spire or steeple, of Gibbs type. The monument was restored in 1991.
