Rock Art, DRUMMIN (Ballinacor North By.)

Rock Art in Ireland, dating from the Bronze Age

On N facing slope of an E-W valley, an earthfast granite boulder (2.4m N-S; 1.5m E-W; H on E side 0.62m; H on W side 0.15m) which may have been quarried along the E edge. Scattered across the surface of the stone are 14 cup marks, mostly confined to the E side. There are three large cups (diam. 7cm; D 1cm) and the best preserved (diam. 5.5cm; D 1.7cm) is at the S end of the boulder. The remaining cup marks are smaller and more weathered.
