The National Monuments Service's description
Marked 'Lackmogue' on OS 1836 and 1876 eds. The root, lack, is an anglicization of leac— a flagstone. St. Mogue was a local saint. Davies (1948, 94) described a rough boulder of sandstone, with about thirty-seven cup-marks on the flat upper surface, the largest not more than 0.75m in depth and 0.07m across. Not located.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cavan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1995). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
