The National Monuments Service's description
Rock art identified and described by Aoibheann Lambe as follows; 'Scarring on the underside of the boulder would suggest it has been moved from its original location. Sandstone boulder with 3+ cupmarks on the upper section of its top surface while on the lower section there are a number of cupmarks and a cup-and-ring. The ring is incomplete where it meets the edge of the rock’s surface'.
