Summary

Description
English: Cup-and-ring marks on rock outcrop I first photographed these markings in June 2002; I returned in November 2009 to locate the position of the outcrop more precisely. Although the site was not (at the time of my submitting this photo) shown in Canmore, the archaeology officer for Falkirk District informs me that the site had already been recorded.

See 1936702 for a different view. The outcrop is shown in context at 1575815.

Despite the poor lighting conditions prevailing at the time, at least four pairs of cup-and-ring marks can be seen in this photo: the most prominent pair is at the front; its ring has a diameter of 16cm. The pair behind that is also fairly clear. Behind that, there are two more pairs, side by side, but they are a little fainter; the one on the left has a more visible ring than the one on the right.

Nearby, on the same outcrop, is a cluster of cup marks: 1575795.
