The solitary and almost forgotten Migvie Kirkyard stone.
Found during a grave-digging in 1861 (it had evidently been buried intentionally), it is a block of gneiss carved on one face with a cross decorated with interlaced knotwork. In the angle of the cross are the pictish symbols of horseshoe and V-rod, double disk and Z-rod, horse and rider and a pair of shears.
On the reverse there is another representation of horse and rider.
