Isolated boulder SE of farmhouse, about 240m OD. A ring about 130mm in diameter encloses two cups. The larger is central and about 25mm in diameter and 10mm in depth. In good light a concentric outer ring can be seen, varying in diameter between 1.10m and 1.17m. A second boulder, 50m S and uphill, has a cup 20mm in diameter and 20mm deep, joined by a radial groove to a 100mm diameter ring, with an irregular gapped outer ring about 0.45m in diameter.
