What is recorded here
Carrowreagh and Craignacally hold one cupmark on the north face of a western gate slab. The small depression sits beside a rural entrance rather than on a remote mountain top. A person may have marked the gate during ordinary work, turning a functional boundary into a memorable landmark. The stone still waits for that lost moment to return.
Described by Van Hoek as 'two large flat slabs form a pair of flankers to a small gate in the wall. On the N face of the western slab is one cupmark' (Van Hoek 1988, 46).
