Towie Church is a plain structure with a small campanile turret that was built in 1803. It sits on the banks on the River Don and is surrounded by a graveyard with tombstones that date mainly from the 19th century, with a few 18th century examples and a medieval grave-slab bearing a calvary cross and chalice.

Less than 50m from a rather splendid pub.

The Maiden Stone, also known as the Drumdurno Stone after the nearby farm, is a Pictish standing stone near Inverurie in Aberdeenshire in Scotland, probably dating to the 9th century AD. The Maiden Stone is a 3m-tall cross-slab of pinkish granite, dating to sometime after AD 700. It’s a sculptural delight, bearing both characteristic Pictish symbols and what may be a biblical scene. Plenty of local folklore exists around the Maiden Stone. One tale has it that the stone was once a maiden, who lost a bet with the Devil. As she fled, the Devil turned her to stone. Another says it’s a memorial to a young woman killed as a result of a dispute between two families. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maiden_Stone - https://www.historicenvironment.scot/visit-a-place/places/maiden-stone/
