MacDuff's Cross, also known as the Cross of MacDuff or Ninewells, is the remains of an ancient white sandstone monument, located on a historic site between Lindores and Newburgh in Fife, Scotland. Robert Sibbald suggested the date of its construction to have been 1059 CE, however earlier dates have been considered. ==Description==
It is located beside a minor road west of Black Cairn Hill, around southwest of Newburgh, where only the pedestal remains of what once was supposedly a cross.〔(Macduff's Cross in the Gazetteer for Scotland )〕 The stone is high, in length and wide. There are various indents on the monument, suggested to have originally been nine cup and ring marks. Other crosses exist in Mortlach, Aberdeenshire; Kiels, Inverary; Strathlacplan, Argyll; and on Iona, Islay and Oronsay.〔
