Reviewed 5 August 2018

Whilst we were having a walk around the village of Glamis yesterday, and on our way back to the car, we spotted the Glamis Manse Stone (also known as Glamis 2).
This Pictish stone is close to the parish church, and located outside The Manse, within the private grounds, but please respect the fact that it is in a private garden and NO entry or access is generally permitted, although a sign outside indicates that access may be possible on certain days of the year through 'Doors Open Days'. The appropriate website would need to be consulted for anyone wishing to get up close to the stone.
This Class II Pictish stone dates from the 9th century. It is inscribed on one side with a Celtic Cross, and on the other with a variety of Pictish symbols.
Even although access is for the most time not permitted, it is still possible to photograph the Pictish stone from both sides from outside of the property.

Date of experience: August 2018
