Class II Pictish symbol stone, of grey sandstone, discovered in the late 18th Century during excavations for the foundation of the new parish church at Dyke. The front bears a cross with interlacing, with other less distinct symbols in the four cut-out quadrants surrounding the cross. The reverse bears two fish monsters with an elephant and a double-disc and Z-rod below them. All of the symbols are in relief. There is an Ogham inscription, the longest such inscription known in Scotland, on the side angles. The cross is badly weathered. The stone is likely to date to from the 8th Century AD, and was removed to its current location in the early 19th Century. A programme of 3-D scanning of the stone was undertaken in 2010 by Deri Jones Associates (for NTS) to aid with condition monitoring.
