The National Monuments Service's description

Described by Van Hoek as 'This interesting site, just W of the road, has eleven single cupmarks, six of which are doubtful and possibly natural. One other cup has one complete ring, another has an incomplete ring. Two more cups seem to have a ring but these proved to have crudely carved recess bands. There are also a few faint grooves resembling the ones at DON 20 (fig. 9B)' (Van Hoek 1987, 39).
