Cuppage (1986, 20-6, no. 25 (a)) records that 'three of the stones of the gallery bear rock art designs.' These designs include a single cup-and-circle, twelve shallow cup-marks, two possible cup-marks and a penannular circle. These are shown in Cuppage (ibid., fig. 13b). The 'Gallaun' indicated on the 1st and 2nd ed. OS 6-inch maps to the SW of this wedge tomb is probably the one that is noted by Cuppage (ibid.) as a 'single outer-wall stone [which] stands at the W end of the S side [of the wedge tomb]'; this is also noted by O'Nuallain (1982, 55, fig. 20).
