The National Monuments Service's description
In low-lying flat valley at foot of Cobduff mountain. Finlay (1973, 95) describes an area (l 1.3m; Wth 1m) on rock outcrop containing incised decorations, randomly arranged and including 'straight-lines, four 'x's, four 'chi' or windmill-figures, one of which is enclosed by a U and several sets of initials'.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 1: West Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1992). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
