The National Monuments Service's description
Exaggerated shadows on a rock surface (L 1.2m; Wth 0.75m) revealed a number of 'finger-top sized' cup marks in a simple geometric motif. Possible further smaller depressions further down the length. Orientation NE to SW. Person who found the stone expressed a wish that it would be known as 'the Catherine Stone' in remembrance of a Great-Grandmother, Catherine Walsh.
