A roughly triangular stone with two cupmarks had been built into the wall of a lane at Miskish More, which was moved to the National Museum of Ireland for safety in 1949. It is described as having a triangular surface ’35 inches along the base and 29.9 inches from base to apex. The stone is ‘18.5 inches thick (dims c. 0.9m x c. 0.75m x c. 0.47m)’ (Raftery 1953) and had two cupmarks on its large surface. One (diam. c. 4cm; D c. 2.5cm) was unadorned but the other (diam. c. 2.5cm; D c. 2.5cm) had seven concentric circles (ext. diam. c. 0.4m).
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Monaghan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1986). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
