The National Monuments Service's description
Described by Van Hoek as 'Two metres NW of the footprint (DG004-063004-) is another part of the ridge, sloping 15 degrees ENE. It has at least seven single cupmarks. Another cup on the lower part of the sheet shows traces of four (complete?) rings, heavily weathered in places. It has a possible tail from the central cup running down the slope' (Fig. 5E) (Van Hoek 1987, 30).
