The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 10m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Scoonie is likely associated with the Pictish period (circa 3rd to 9th century AD) and may have functioned as a memorial or territorial marker, given its classification as a cross slab, ogham inscribed stone, and Pictish symbol stone. Such stones often combined Christian and Pictish iconography, reflecting cultural and religious transitions of the time.
