Kintore

class I Pictish stone discovered underground in the churchyard (re used as a gravecover?). Now stands near the churchyard wall in a recess to the right of the entrance.
The South face bears a triple-disc ('cauldron') symbol under a salmon symbol. The North face bears a crescent and v rod over the symbol known as the 'elephant' or the 'Pictish beast'. The South side of the stone is noticably better carved and may be by a different hand and at a different date.
There are 4 stones known from Kintore. Kintore 4 is now in Inverurie museum a few miles away. 2 and 3 are in the National Museum of Scotland in Edinburgh.
