Recorded monuments

• WA024-045 Boundary stone
  Description

  Situated on the SE bank of the NW-SE Deehil River, c. 550m NW of the point where it joins the River Tay. This is a large glacial erratic that has split into two portions, and it is known as Clogh Leabhrais - the speaking stone. Traditionally, it confirmed truths pronounced before it, but it was confounded by an adulterous woman on one occasion and spit in frustration. The story was well known in the 17th century (Walton 1987, 29). (Ryland 1824, 304; O'Flanagan 1929, 29-30; J.C. 1908) Compiled by: Michael Moore. Date of upload: 26th September, 2011.
