Described by Van Hoek in 1988 as 'This rock (DG003-007----) has now been located. It is not covered (as was suggested by Van Hoek, 1987a), but the inscriptions are very much weathered. The rock lies a few metres to the W of the nearby standing stone (DG003-020) (Van Hoek 1987a, fig. 2) and is a large slab projecting northwards from an old low wall; it slopes 15 degrees SE. On it are the two cup-and-ring devices previously reported, plus three extra cupmarks. In the vicinity of DON 10 (DG003-007-) have come to light eight further decorated stones (DON 10A to 10H)' (Van Hoek 1988, 46).

Situated in rushy bogland this is the site of a possible standing stone (H 0.9m; base wth 1.3m; top Wth 0.96m; T 0.18m) which does not display the characteristic features of a standing stone and would suggest that this may be natural and not an archaeological monument. However its close proximity to a panel of rock art (DG003-007-) located 28m to the NW may suggest that this stone is of prehistoric date.
