I didn't know what to expect here, so I can't say that I was disappointed, but I was. The rock art consists of a single, well defined cupmark on the top of a pointed boulder and a very shallow, ill-defined cup one one side of it.

Another slab 30m away has some 'possible' art on it - a linear marking and a cup - but these are natural.
