Rock Art, BALLYKEAN (Penrose)
Rock Art in Ireland, dating from the Bronze Age
On S facing slope in area of improved pasture. Kinahan (1884, 224-6) noted a stone ('Stone B') at this location in a field which was known as 'fort field'. Kinahan described the stone as 'a thick granite flag which seems to have been placed by man in its present horizontal position. Its surface is very much weathered causing some of the cups to join one into the other'. The field was cleared of stone when inspected by ASI in 1990 and this stone was not located.
