In area of mountain heath (150m), with a concentration of rock outcrop and boulders, on a general NE-facing slope; Good views of Behy River valley NE->E. Not located. According to O’Sullivan & Sheehan (1996, 101), this ‘flat section of rock outcrop, measuring 3.1m x 1.6m, features a lightly pocked circular area at its N end and a haphazard grouping of pockmarks at SE’. The SMR file states that this is ‘a very smooth though stepped portion of rock outcrop whose surface bears only one motif at its N end’ which is ‘a surface pocked flat disc 23cm x 23cm’ and ‘50cm SE are a haphazard collection of 10 pockmarks, set close together’.
