Ardlamont Point

Cup and Ring Marks / Rock Art

postman May 16, 2008

Right at the southern extreme of Ardlamont point, next to the lane and past Point farm is this large boulder with brilliant views of the Arran mountains.
There isnt any where to park except on the lane or at the farm, so a short visit was necessary. I could see the cupmarks easy enough of which I counted 15 but only a few definate rings, with the mountains so near on the horizon a link with moon rise/setting could be suggested.
