A couple of months ago I found twelve or so unrecorded marked rocks in the Lurgan area , returning to check for more I came across a large outcrop that had recently been cleared of trees , resulting in a WW1 type landscape , mud and brash everywhere .It looked promising though and the finds piled up after clearing . To date there are at least eleven panels with over 230 cups and a great variety of motifs .
