CUP-AND-RING MARKINGS
Kilmichael Glassary image

 
This rock outcrop decorated with plain cupmarks and cup-and-ring markings lies in a fenced enclosure in the village of Kilmichael Glassary (Argyll). It measures 7.6m x 3m.
Some unusual decorations are four cups with keyhole-like rings and three large oval marks. The markings were chipped out of the rock with a stone hammer.
Nearby there are other smaller rock outcrops bearing cupmarks and ring-and-cup markings.
