Cup and Ring marks or other Rock Art in Co. Wicklow
By the far hedge of a field to the S of the by-road from Togher/Roundwood to Lough Dan, dug up from the field and placed among other boulders along the hedge, is a stone 1.2 metres long and about 38 cms high, with 14 cup-marks on its upper surface, ranging from 10 to 11.3 cms in diameter and up to 7.6 cms deep. One is surrounded by a ring, and a pair has a partial ring. There are also wide, almost parallel, grooves. Two other similar stones have been reported to have been found in adjacent fields.
