These three blocks of Kemnay Granite are not Druidicial stones. They are 3 of 4 stones intended to be carved into Lions to decorate the George VI bridge in Aberdeen. The bridge, designed by Sir Frank Mearns was laid out in 1938. As part of the original design it had been intended that the Scottish sculptor D.O. Pilkington would carve four Heraldic lions, however in 1940, following the outbreak of war, the Ministry of Transport halted the work on the lions and the bridge was eventually opened without them, by King George VI on 10th March 1941. The fourth block was given to Aberdeen Civic Society in 1975. It was to be used as a memorial to the architect Archibald Simpson and as such now stands in Bon accord Square.
