Description
Inverurie 3 is the lower part of a Class I Pictish slab showing most of a double disc and z rod symbol and what may be the lower part of a disc symbol. Inverurie 2 is a very small fragment showing part of an ornately patterned mirror symbol. As well as Inverurie 4 (the famous Inverurie Horse), Inverurie 1 is located in the same place but is too worn to photograph well.
