Conical pillars like these are a feature of Murthly Estate's designed landscape. In this case they lead from the old Dunkeld - Perth Turnpike (now the B9099) onto the Lantern Drive and up to Douglasfield or Home Farm. Lantern Lodge, built about 1858, and Category 'B' listed, stood about one kilometre further along until it was demolished in the early 1970s.
