The first three stones are on the opposite side of the road from the car park, the replica is in the car park. The Churchyard Cross is in the grounds of the church a few hundred yards away.

Aberlemno and the stones are on the B9134 road which runs between the Angus towns of Forfar and Brechin for 12 miles. This was the old hilly route which has now been largely replaced by the flatter, quicker A90 dual-carriageway to the north. The car park is well signposted from the road. The stones are wrapped up and insulated during the winter months.
