NN 04963 25002 At the E of the track to Ballimore a roughly square-shaped rock has a central ‘cup’ 38 x 16mm deep surrounded by a 56mm diameter ring. The ring appears to be have been engraved with a metal tool and has little similarity to prehistoric rock art.

Field Visit (December 2021)
A pre-afforestation walkover survey was conducted over two parcels of land near Kilchrenan, in December 2020. During the walkover 82 sites of archaeological or historical interested were recorded within or adjacent to the boundaries of the two areas. The sites comprised banks, enclosures and walls; structures and more ephemeral possible structures; farmsteads and kilns; areas of rig cultivation (more were observed on the aerial photographs than during the survey); quarries; a shooting hide; a walker’s cairn; and tracks.
