Cumberland Stone is a type of limestone that is quarried in the Lake District of Cumbria, United Kingdom. It is a popular choice for building and landscaping projects due to its durability, versatility, and attractive appearance. The stone is characterized by its warm, honey-colored tone and its unique texture, which features subtle fossilization and veining. It is often used for exterior paving, walling, and architectural features, as well as for interior flooring, fireplaces, and decorative elements.
Another interesting feature of the Culloden Battlefield Trail, right by the roadside. Again, possibly not historically accurate but makes for a great story
Very interesting, we found it by the road after visiting Culloden visitors centre. I think there is some walking as well.
Amazing stone from the ice age. The leader of the red coats would have his lunch at this stone as well as standing on it to watch the battle.
Supposed stone the Duke of Cumberland stood in in 1746 but I'm guessing same folk who erected grave stones on Culloden Battlefield in the 19th century had something to do with this one too
It's a big stone. If you walk to the bench at the back you get to read the story of it. Interesting stop to read a bit of history surrounding the battle of culloden
Worth a short walk from the city battle of Culloden or Clava Craigs.
Good for kids
