What is recorded here

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records St Fillans as Cup and Ring Marked Rock (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.
St Fillans is associated with St Fillan, an 8th-century Irish monk and healer who is said to have founded a monastery in Perth and Kinross, Scotland. The site is linked to traditions of healing and pilgrimage, with local folklore suggesting that the holy well or sacred stones there possessed curative properties, particularly for ailments of the eyes and skin.

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