Rock Art, LETTER WEST
Rock Art in Ireland, dating from the Bronze Age
In mountain heath (169m OD), on a NE-facing slope, to NW of stream. Good views overlooking Behy River valley to NE and overlooked by mountains SE->W->NW. A smooth and fractured sandstone (dims. 2.00m NE-SW; 1.10m NW-SE; max. H 0.20m at SE) which is irregular in plan. It has an irregular decorated surface (dims. 0.22m NE-SW; 0.07m NW-SE) which is generally flat. The decorative elements consist of an obvious cluster (dims. 22cm NE-SW; 7cm NW-SE) of pickmarks upon the SW area of the stone. The cluster is defined by individual pickmarks (diam. 7-9mm; D 2mm) that are very distinct. Rock art (KE071-186----) is c. 24m to NNE.
