Dalnavaid

Cup Marked Stone

nickbrand Apr 16, 2003

Quite clearly marked on the Landranger map, about 200 m in from the cottage, near the fence between the hill field and the one you’re in. Sits on a north-facing spur, quite easy to spot (the biggest stone at the end). About 18 cup-marks on the eastern side of the stone, quite clear and not too badly weathered.
