What is recorded here
Decorated stone from Ballymaghroe graveyard which appears to have been reused as a grave marker. Irregular-shaped stone (dims. L 52cm) that is clearly broken along one edge; on one face there are seven cup marks and two of these are broken across the middle where the stone has been split. A groove extends out from the largest cup mark and splays slightly at the opposite end. Curiously, on the opposite face are two small cups (Corlett 2013, 13-14).
