Coire Thaochaidh

Cup and Ring Marks / Rock Art

tiompan Jul 15, 2016

New find from yesterday .From a side glen of Glen Lyon .Considering it ‘s length and later historical period finds ,it has very little prehistoric discoveries .
A prominent rock spotted from above and some distance away proved to be worth investigating .Some of the exposed markings were difficult to capture but those that were under moss were in much better condition with pick marks still evident .
