THE BEHEADING STONE

This reminder of gruesome capital punishment in times past is thought to have witnessed the execution of various important figures, most notably in 1425, Murdoch, Duke of Albany and former regent of Scotland, two of his sons and his father-in-law, the Earl of Lennox, as King James I took his revenge for Albany's misuse of power during James's minority .
