What is recorded here

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Upper Kinneil as Commemorative Stone (14th Century)(possible), Standing Stone (prehistoric). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 1m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Upper Kinneil is likely a prehistoric standing stone, possibly dating to the Neolithic or Bronze Age, and may have functioned as a ceremonial or territorial marker. Its later association with a 14th-century commemorative use suggests continued local significance over many centuries.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
