Rock Art in Ireland, dating from the Bronze Age

Found, in 1984, ex situ in spoil from an adjacent road widening scheme. An irregularly shaped boulder fragment (L 0.61m; Wth 0.52m; max. T 0.18m) is decorated on one face with a cupmark surrounded by four incised circles with a gap or channel on one side. The lower part of this motif is missing because of damage to the stone. A double circle is attached to the main motif. It is probably a fragment of a larger decorated stone and was recovered from spoil beside the road in the course of road widening. It is now in the NMI (see DU018-174----: NMI 1984:145). Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy Date of upload: 12 November 2013
