Cup and Ring marks / Rock Art in Highlands
In the low lying ground between Lienassie farmhouse and Dorusduain there is a low rise with a number of rock outcrops, five of which have cup markings of some 1 to 2 inches in diameter. The site was noted by T Wallace in 1897 (Proceedings of the Society of Antiquaries of Scotland, vol 31, 1896-7, p 87), and is in the Canmore database of the Royal Commission of Ancient Monuments of Scotland (reference NG92SE).
