In rough pasture (56m OD), on a SW-facing slope, to E of Staigue river. Excellent views of sea and Kenmare river estuary to S. A very rough and fractured expanse of rock outcrop (dims. 11m NW-SE; 8m NE-SW; max. H 0.15m) having a subrectangular decorated surface (dims. 4.30m ESE-WNW; 0.90m NNE-SSW) with a gentle S-facing aspect. Motifs are upon a slightly elevated surface of this rock outcrop and are very difficult to decipher due to weathering and black moss cover. They are generally located off-centre to E of the rock expanse and include four cup-and-ring motifs (overall diam. 17-22cm; ring Wth 2-3.5cm; D 3-4cm; cup diam. 8-10cm; D 11-17mm). A cupmark (diam. 9cm; D 12mm) is located 2.4m to WNW. This monument was initially identified as rock art by A. Lambe (2013).
