I've actually looked for this site before. In fact, I've walked right past it. My excuse for not seeing it is that I thought I was looking for a bullaun stone at the time, not a cup-marked stone. When the farmer described the stone to me it didn't sound like a bullaun - he mentioned lots of small dents in one side - so I was on the look out for something else this time.
The large stone (1.5m x 1m x 1m) lies at the edge of a small pile of field clearance. The cup-marks are spread over the outer, upright face of the stone. I counted at least 11 cup-marks.
I had to go back to the car to fetch my GPS to record its position. When I did so I left my camera there. I then had to go back to get the camera when I noticed a large cup in the end face of the stone. I presume this is why it was classed as a bullaun stone in the first place.
To have a bullaun on the end of a stone and cup-marks down the side of it is most unusual. Again, this looks like a rare crossover and link between rock art and bullaun stones.
