In upland heath pasture, on a SE-facing slope (c. 210m OD). Good views over Coomasaharn Lake to S. Location from grid reference provided is close to NW of a range of small, enclosed fields. Not located. According to O’Sullivan & Sheehan (1996, 83; Entry 275, Figure 50 (d), ‘this partially exposed section of rock outcrop (dims. 1.0m NE-SW x 0.7m NW-SE) is irregular in plan and has a decorated surface bearing one cupmark within two rings. The few stones that were exposed across this area were inspected and none appear to bear rock art of this description. This rock art example is likely to be obscured by bog, thick tussocks of mollinia and furze.
