Another Pictish Stone sketch while I wait for #TAG45! This time Park House, Deeside, (canmore.org.uk/site/36624) but with the possible notched flower rather than a notched rectangle with a z-rod #Picts

This sketch draws from Stuart's illustration as well as the other resources from Park House's canmore page. The flower symbol is based on one from Sculptor's Cave, Covesea!
