Nah, think it's original and it is included in Shee-Twohigs book.
Ive been up Baltinglass hill the once and I didnt see any of the carvings so well done for being able to find them and bring them out in photograph.
Tom had checked them out in the aforementioned book by Twohig which was adapted from the excavation drawings, so we knew where to look. Unfortunately the kerbstone carvings were not so simple, we failed to positively identify one carving, though I'm checking the photos I took for things we may have missed.
A really difficult to see/photograph marked rock(s) are the two at Malin More court tomb .
