The underside of the capstone (dims 1.25m x. 0.9m; T 0.1m) of a cist investigated in 1935 (Raftery 2011) has a double concentric circle and three motifs of triple concentric circles.

Located towards the bottom of the N-facing slope of the Loughcrew Hills. Land Commission works during 1935 revealed two cists, which were largely destroyed before they could be investigated (E001127), but they were in a circular enclosure (diam. c. 25m) defined by a shallow fosse (Raftery 2011, 346). One cist was rectangular (dims 0.9m x 0.75m; D 0.46m) but without a capstone and it contained yellow clay with charcoal inclusions. The second cist was also rectangular in plan with a capstone. It was also filled with yellow clay that had charcoal inclusions, and a few fragments of bone were recovered. A third cist (ME009-055----) was discovered at the same time about 600m to the N.

A stone (max. dims 1.6m x 1.15m; T 0.3m) covered with cup and circle motifs on one side was recovered during land reclamation in 1969. The most striking and probably the primary motif is a cup with four rings and a radial line. Surrounding this and partly attached to it are four or five cups with three rings, two of which have radial lines. There are at least two cupmarks with two rings and two with one ring, while there could be two or three simple rings and five or more cupmarks of different sizes on the decorated surface. Some of the rings while they might not have radial lines can be open at one point. There are some cupmarks on the reverse side, and the stone is now in NMI (1969: 676).

This erratic is located towards the bottom of the N-facing slope of Carnbane East, and has been fully recorded by Shee Twohig (et al. 2010, 16-17). The pentagonal upper surface (dims c. 1.6m x 1.5m) has split and moved out of line but slopes upward slightly to the SE. The W part has two faint cup and circle motifs and one cup and double circle. There are also eighteen cupmarks. The E part has six cup and circles motifs, four of which are in a curve and may be connected by a line, and sixteen cupmarks. The stone was re-used as a mass-rock at a place called Glen an Aifrinn – the glen of the mass. In 1704 Rev. Owen Scally was the Roman Catholic priest of Oldcastle and Moylagh, and mass was said at this time in Glenenerrin (Cogan 1862-70, vol. 2, 377).

Located on an undulating landscape N of Slieve na Calliagh ridge. A possible cursus was identified in 1995 as two very low parallel banks, 15m apart, with internal fosses extending N-S (L 210m plus) but its full extent is not known (Newman 1995). A standing stone, lying prone at the point where it meets a wide NE-SW field wall, may mark its NW end. Aerial photographs (GB91.DD.37; GB91.DE.05) from 1991 show the banks cutting elements of field system (ME009-108----) so it might be a late feature like a roadway. From its SE end another section could extend SW (L c. 290m), with a second standing stone (ME009-087001-) close to the turn. The course of this section is less certain, although it seems to terminate at a small, poorly-drained area. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 2 November 2018

A roughly triangular stone (max. dims 1.55m x 0.7m; T 0.3m) was recovered in ploughing during 1972 and is now in the NMI (1974: 43). It is a weathered sandstone scored with plough marks and has a single motif of a cupmark with six concentric circles, the outer three of which are incomplete, probably through damage. A radial line crosses all the circles. The inner three circles are closely spaced while the outer three are more widely spaced. There are some small cupmarks separating the inner and outer series of circles.

They were fully recorded by Shee Twohig (et al. 2010, 17-19). Stone A (max. dims 2.15m x 1.95m; H 0.6m) has seven cupmarks and fourteen cup and circles. The central motif is a cup and double circle. Stone B (max. dims 2.35m x 1.6m; H 0.6m) is just to the N of A but its SE side, where most motifs are, is markedly lower (c. 2cm). This recessed area has about 6 cupmarks, thirteen cup and circles and two cup and double circles, while the W part of the stone has five cup and circles and one cup and double circle. Stone C (max. dims 2m x 0.55m; H 0.9m) is just W of stone B but its decorated surface slope up 30 degrees to the SE. It has about five small cupmarks, four cup and circles, and a central cup and double circle. Stone D (dims 3.6m x 0.9-1.6m; H 1.3m) is just to the NW of C and is divided into four panels by natural fissures and differences in level. Each section has a cup with multiple circles (three or four) and in addition there are a total of four cup and double circles, at least twelve cup and circles but only about four single cupmarks.

This large erratic (dims c. 2.6m x c. 1.5m; H 0.95m at E, uphill, to 1.95m at W) is located on the steep NW-facing slope of Patrickstown Hill. It has art on its upper surface, which is divided in two by a crack, and it has been fully recorded by Shee Twohig (et al. 2010, 16). The N part has three concentric circles, while the S part has a motif of three concentric circles with a central dot connected by a line to a large, central, set of four or five concentric circles (diam. 0.7m). There is a third small concentric circle in the N part. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 3 March, 2017

This is a large erratic located on the lower N-facing slope of the Loughcrew Hills, and has been fully recorded by Shee Twohig (et al. 2010, 15). Its decorated surface (dims c. 3.5m x 2.4m; max.

This sandstone erratic is located on the lower N-facing slope of the Loughcrew Hills, and has been fully recorded by Shee Twohig (et al. 2010, 15). An upper surface (dims 1.7m x 1.3m; max.

This is one of three decorated stones that were incorporated into a ringfort (ME009-063----) which was levelled in the 1940's. This had two designs, a cup mark surrounded by four rings and another cupmark with three rings. This stone appears to have been reburied at the location.

This is one of three decorated stones found in a ringfort in Ballinvalley, county Meath when it was levelled in the 1940's. This stone ‘8 feet by 5 feet (c. 2.45m x c. 1.5m)’ was profusely decorated with numerous cupmarks and a double penannular ring with two radials. This stone appears to have been reburied at the location. (Shee Twohig 2001, 120, C; Shee Twohig et al. 2010, 21) Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 3 March, 2017

Located on a fairly level landscape at the N foothills of Slieve na Calliagh ridge. Aerial photographs from 1991 (GB91.DD.37; GB91.DE.05) show an area of about 24 acres (c. 10 ha) that contains relict field banks or walls forming irregularly rectangular fields (dims c. 60m x c. 50m). One field neatly encloses the enclosure (ME009-107----). The fields are overlaid by NW-SE furrows but elements of the field walls are cut by the possible cursus (ME009-087----), suggesting that it might be a late feature like a roadway.

Located on a fairly level landscape at the N foothills of Slieve na Calliagh ridge. Aerial photographs from 1991 (GB91.DD33; GB91DE05) shows a sunken feature (L c. 150m NE-SW) that might have an earthen bank on either side extending NE-SW. From its S end it enters a confused area with elements of the field system (ME009-108---) and relict furrows, but the N end of the possible cursus (ME009-087----) is c. 100m S from it.

A parcel is the land of a title, not an address. The owner's name is in the Land Registry of Tailte Éireann: a copy of the folio can be ordered on landdirect.ie, for a fee; this site names no owner.
