A possible stone font. Found in garden wall in 1994 at Cowhill, Aberdeenshire, and formerly situated to the south of the bungalow known as Clach Mhuillin (see Aberdeenshire HER NJ92SE0019) and moved to its present location circa 2019. It has been suggested to be the missing holy stoup from Petten's Church (Aberdeenshire HER NJ91NE0001) which was once in the garden of Belhelvie Manse and went missing. This alleged font may be nothing more than a mortar or small knocking stone, It measures 0.32m in overall diameter and 0.18m in depth and it has four external vertical lugs which rise from a flat base to the rim. The internal hollow measures 0.24m in diameter and 0.16m in depth.
