This slab measures 1.55m by 1.15m across and was probably originally a roofing slab from the souterrain complex. On its upper surface there are at least thirty-one cupmarks measuring up to 80mm in diameter; most are well-executed but others are very shallow and eight are surrounded or partially surrounded by ringmarks measuring up to 190mm in diameter. Visited by RCAHMS (JRS) 21 April 1989.
