Situated 90m (100 yds) NE of No. 53 Auchnacraig Rd., Clydebank, 45m (50 yds) W of electricity pylon XF 76 and SW of a deep gully, is a rough but mostly horizontal gritstone sheet 5m by 3 1/2m and up to 1/2m high (17ft x 12ft x 1 1/2ft) partly intersected by deep turf. On it are 3 cups-and-two-rings, 5 cups-and-one-ring, all much weathered and probably un-gapped, up to 17cm (7ins) diameters, some with radial or connecting grooves, and about 35 cups up to 2cm (1ins) deep. Much of this is only visible when wet in low sun.
