Rothiemay, Scotland close to he previous find of the "Goose Stone" was the
Pictish Incised Symbol Stone Tillytarmont 2. Unknowingly or not the stone
was placed at the side of the field where it was then forgotten. Ten years
later (1954) Dr Mackay while fishing on the Deveron, found the stone lying
where it was left covered in weeds and grass and reported it to Mr
Mitchell the Huntly Antiquarian and on his advice this stone too was
placed in Whyness Riddochs garden at Whitestones, Rothiemay, Huntly for
safe keeping. The stone still remains there along with Tillytarmont 3 in a
