The Market Cross, first erected in the 17th century, was removed when weekly markets no longer held and lost until the 1970s. With funding from the BBC after making the film "The Little Minister" in Glamis, the Cross and new lion were unveiled by Fergus, 17th Earl of Strathmore and dedicated by Rev Dr Henderson. A nearby stone is inscribed "Nation Shall Speak Peace Unto Nation". Previously listed under 'Glamis Castle' where it lay "recumbent in undergrowth 40 yards north of South Lodge".
