March Stone 27 ("the Ringing Stone") (colour)
The Ringing Stone is located adjacent to Brodiach Burn. Access from Brotherfield Farm. It is marked "27 ABD".

Origins of this intriguing name are unknown. There are 2 miles to the next stone, being the longest distance between stones; the Brodiach burn was taken to provide a sufficient marker.

A slide of this image was kindly lent to Aberdeen City Libraries by Colin Johnston so that we could create a digital copy for public use.

The image was taken in the early 1980s when Colin worked as a teacher at Bridge of Don Academy. He led several current and former pupils, and staff members in an investigation into the location, physical condition and public knowledge of Aberdeen's historic boundary markers.
