NT57SE 88 c. 583 748.
Four carved rock surfaces were found on the NE slope of Traprain Law (NT57SE 1.00), 2ft below turf level, prior to quarrying. All carved within about 13 sq m were at least 7 cups-and-rings, with up to 7 concentric rings, many straight and other grooves, many crossing in grid or herring-bone patterns, a cross, and other indeterminate designs. They are now quarried away, but parts and casts are in Royal Museum of Scotland (RMS), formerly the National Museum of Antiquities of Scotland (NMAS) (GV (1932) 97-98 and GV (1967) 289-294).
