Camus Cross, Stone cross and scheduled monument in Monikie, Scotland.
The sandstone cross stands 2 meters high with a width of 0.6 meters at the base and 0.8 meters across the arms.
The cross first appeared in 15th century legal documents describing boundaries between Camuston and the barony of Downie in eastern Scotland.
The western face contains carvings of a crucifixion scene, a centaur with a bow, while the eastern face shows Christ with angels.
The monument sits in Camuston Wood, accessible through a one-kilometer avenue from the Panmure Testimonial to the Carnoustie road.
A burial discovered near the cross in 1598 contained Bronze Age artifacts that were later preserved at Brechin Castle.
