Cup Marked Stone

ryaner Sep 9, 2006

Go looking for a barrow and find some rock-art! This earthfast stone with at least 5 cup marks and some modern, sub-christian markings, sits right beside the western barrow on Mullaghash Hill. It’s not recorded in the Arch. Inventory of Co. Louth but the christian markings say that it has been known for quite some time.
