Old Photograph Maiden Stone Scotland

Old photograph The Maiden Stone, also known as Drumdurno Stone after the nearby farm near Inverurie, Aberdeenshire, Scotland. Local legend states that the daughter of the Laird of Balquhain made a bet with a stranger that she could bake a bannock faster than he could build a road to the top of Bennachie. The prize would be the maiden's hand. However, the stranger was the Devil and finished the road and claimed the forfeit. The maiden ran from the Devil and prayed to be saved. The legend finishes by saying that God turned her to stone, and the notch is where the Devil grasped her shoulder as she ran.
