Described by Kinahan (1884, 223-7) as having been found in 1877, near the E end of the Upper Lake at Glendalough, and moved to beside St Kevin's Kitchen (WI023-009----). It was of mica-schist with eighteen cupmarks, and the surface was somewhat weathered. Now located in the Stone Store, Visitor Centre. 29 August 2005. Described by Leask (1950, 44) as a ‘rough slab, 2½ inches [0.06m] thick. Fifteen small cup marks, possibly due to weathering, are irregularly scattered over the face of the slab’.
