043 | This name applies to two Standing Stones, closely erected together and situated at the North east corner of the front garden of the Free Church Manse of Rhynie. The dimensions of the southern stone are four feet in length by two feet in breadth & the other measures three feet in length by one & a half in breadth. It is conjectured that these stones were raised to commemorate the tombs of illustrious chieftains who fell in the chase connected with the battle of Milduan. |
