Rock Art in Fife
Canmore ID 31752 tells us that this stone was "blown up in 1965, leaving no trace"! Previous entries told us: "A cup-marked boulder is located in a heavy growth of whin bushes in a covert c. 3/4 mile (1.8 km) NE of Lochmalony House. It is somewhat hog-backed, measuring 8'9" (2.1m) by 6' (1.83m) and 3' (0.9m) high, bearing 28 cup-marks between 1 1/2 and 3" in diameter, two of the cup-marks having single rings round them. Visited 1925." By 1956: "This erratic boulder is as described except that weathering has obliterated the rings around the cups. The covert in which it was formerly situated has been removed."
The Northern Antiquarian (TNA) also features a page for this cup and ring stone - see their page for Lochmaloney, Kilmany, Fife, which also includes a drawing of this now long-gone carving.
