Rock Art, LETTER WEST
Rock Art in Ireland, dating from the Bronze Age
A triangular shaped rock which slopes upwards to W, having sides of approx. 1m, protrudes from boggy pasture, a single clearly defined cupmark (diam. 0.045m, D. 8mm) towards its N edge. Other features on the surface, which include horizontal and vertical grooves as well as an oblong shaped hollow, appear to be natural. The highest part of the panel is heavily lichen encrusted while the part of the surface inscribed with the cupmark is almost devoid of lichen suggesting the cupmarked portion of the panel was below ground level until recent years.
