Additional information supplied by Drew Parsons in September 2012: This standing stone is located behind some railings in a stone wall. You can pull off the road onto a grass verge on the corner of the lane leading off the junction of the A90 and A85 on the western side of Dundee. There are other stones on the east side of this lane although they are in a jumble and may not be of archaeological importance. The Devil's Stone has a number of what are probably faults or crack lines in it.
