In rough pasture (134m OD), strewn with boulders, on lower portion of a steep E-facing slope directly overlooking Loughadoon to E. This rock faces the mouth of Loughadoon, where it flows out to the Scorid River and onwards to the sea at Brandon Bay. Immediate views around Loughadoon corrie lake and distant views of Brandon Mountain range to NW and Brandon Bay to N. A slightly rough and unfractured sandstone boulder (dims. 1.3m NE-SW; 1.8m NW-SE; H 0.5m at E side) which is lozenge-shaped in elevation. It has a linear decorated surface (dims. 0.4m NE-SW; 0.15m NW-SE) which has a relatively steep NE-facing aspect. The decorated surface bears the faint remains of three ringmarks. These are orientated in a line (long-axis NE-SW) roughly in centre of stone and situated c. 9-10cm apart. Each ringmark (dims. 10cm NW-SE; c. 7cm NE-SW) is defined by a ring (Wth 1.5cm; D 1-3mm); There is no central cupmark. This is not classic rock art and the decorative elements appear as if they are residual portions of former motifs or perhaps those that were never completed. An unrecorded hut site is c. 10m to SE and rock art (KE035-076----) is c. 170m to S.
