Kinord: The Kinord stone

The Kinord Stone on the shores of Loch Kinord, is said to be the best example of a Celtic symbol stone in Britain. Carved in granite, this beautiful Celtic Cross dates back to the ninth century AD. Some claim that the stone was commissioned by St Fumoc to furnish a small chapel at Kinord while others suggest that it dates back to the days of Malcolm Canmore when the chapel was consecrated by his wife, Queen Margaret, later to become St Margaret of Scotland.
The stone was moved to a safe location in 1820 but returned 100 years later to occupy a site very close to the original.
