About MeThe 'Langstane' is located on the corner of Dee Street and Langstane Place. It is a roughly dressed slab of grey granite, possibly a "march stone" or boundary stone, or part of a now vanished stone circle. It has stood in its present location from the mid 18th Century and was inscribed in about 1850.
