The National Monuments Service's description
Identified by Van Hoek in 1987 and described as 'In the same field as DON 5 (DG003-014----) but quite near the derelict farm buildings of Ballyduff and the minor road, and also very near the N fence of the field, is part of a large outcrop, largely overgrown with grass, with four cupmarks. One has a ring which is heavily weathered at its N quadrant. It has an uncertain tail. This part of the outcrop slopes 13 degrees ENE' (Van Hoek and Van Hoek 1985, fig. 3D)' (Van Hoek 1987, 28).
