Archaeology Notes

NN63NW 94 62555 36183

There are at least thirty-six cupmarks on the rounded upper surface of an erratic boulder situated on the edge of a clearing in mixed deciduous woodland about 600m E of Edramucky farmsteading. The largest cup measures about 100mm in diameter and 50mm in depth, and at least two cups have slight traces of a single ring. At the highest point of the rock there is a boss formed in false relief by the carving of a group of inter-cut cups around it, and a single small cup has been carved in the centre of the boss.
