NGR - NT 580156

 

Peden's Stone is a large natural rock boulder located near to the summit of Rubers Law, the prominent hill south of Denholm in Roxburghshire. Next to it is Peden's Pulpit, from where he preached. Access to the summit, which is 1391 feet above sea level, can be made across various routes, perhaps one of the easiest being to follow the track from Whitriggs east to some woods on the western slopes, from which the summit is a steady climb.
