Braes of Balloch

Cup and Ring Marks / Rock Art

tiompan Apr 25, 2005

In an area covered in rock art this stone is easily the most interesting and ornate . First described by the minister at Kenmore , J.B. MacKenzie in 1895, the “cups” are almost non-existent , and the motifs and manner of pecking are much closer in style to Irish passage grave and some Northumbrian markings .
