A magnificent Pictish cross slab with a highly decorated cross. Flanking the shaft are representations of cauldrons, one with human legs projecting from it, and two fighting warriors. The reverse has incised symbols of the adder, salmon and mirror.
Four other fragments may be seen in Glamis Church, the largest being the remains of a cross slab with part of the shaft flanked with human and animal figures. A smaller cross slab fragment bears part of an interlaced cross shaft, and another fragment has the “concertina” symbol inscribed. There is also a small column with scrolled decoration which may be a piece of church furniture.
