Rock Art, COOMASAHARN
Rock Art in Ireland, dating from the Bronze Age
In cutaway bog, on a NE-facing slope (148m OD), overlooking Behy River valley to N. A slightly rough and fractured sandstone rock outcrop (dims. 0.81m NE-SW; 0.50m NW-SE; max. H 0.11m) with a triangular-shaped decorated surface (dims. 0.14m NE-SW; 0.11m NW-SE) which is flat and barely protruding above bog. The rock art is very weathered and faint and located toward the S-corner of the stone surface. It consists of a barely traceable cup-and-one ring motif (diam. 11cm) having a cupmark (diam. 5cm; D 4mm) and a ring (Wth 1cm; D 2mm). Cluster of possible pickmarks adjacent to NE.
