Paddock Stone is a Bronze Age standing stone located in Angus, Scotland. The monument survives as an upright stone of modest height and forms part of the broader tradition of monolithic ritual and territorial markers characteristic of Bronze Age communities in eastern Scotland. Standing stones of this type, whilst often isolated in the modern landscape, may originally have functioned within more complex ceremonial or burial landscapes that have since been lost to agricultural change and development. The stone's survival into the present day provides evidence of Bronze Age settlement patterns and symbolic practices across Angus and the wider region.
