NN53SW 4 5432 3483.
(Area NN 542 349) An outcrop with a "foot-print" in it is visible 100 yds N of Morlaganmore farmhouse and 10 yds W of the farm road. It measures 13 1/2" x 6" and is 6" deep. A natural crack runs obliquely across it. There is insufficient evidence to say whether it is natural or artificial.

This rock may be compared with the inaugural stones of chiefs and kings of the Dark Ages.
F W L Thomas 1879
The "foot-print", as described by Cash, was located at NN 5432 3483 on top of a long ridge of natural outcrop rock. It would appear to be artificial rather than natural. No other marks were seen on the rock.
Surveyed at 1:10,000.
