The National Monuments Service's description
In the garden of Anglont House. In the 1930s Capt. D. B. O'Connell recorded a 'cupped stone' in Anglont townland. There are no visible remains of any cup-marked stone here. Locally the stone was thought to be an ogham stone. It was set between two rocks in a prominent position in the garden but was subsequently broken. According to local information, the stone was totally destroyed by a mechanical digger. A deeply carved cup-and-ring design was recorded by Finola Finlay in 1972.
