Pictish Carved Stone, Aberlemno, Scotland
This evening, I am focusing on Scotland’s considerable heritage of carved Pictish era stones which can be found dotted around the country in various places including roadsides, derelict/redundant churches, museums and in the open.
This evening, I am posting images of some remarkable carved stones at Inchinnan, near Glasgow which I discovered recently.
Inchinnan was the home of the cult of St. Conval, a 7th century disciple of St. Kentigern. The three stones in the images below are located in the porch in front of Inchinnan Parish Church and protected by a narrow grill.

This evening, I am posting some images of an unusual bridge which straddles the White Cart river close to the Normandy Hotel, Inchinnan. This is quite an impressive piece of engineering and is the only Scherger type bridge still operating in Scotland. The bridge dates from 1923 and was recently refurbished by the local council.
