Rock art

Why this matters

Likely dating to the Neolithic or Bronze Age, the rock art on the Dranagh boulder may have held ritual or symbolic significance, possibly linked to fertility, celestial observation, or territorial marking. Similar motifs are found across Ireland and Britain, often associated with ceremonial landscapes.
