- WI034-037 Rock art
Description
Site described by Dr. Clíodhna Ní Lionáin of the UCD Wicklow Rock Art Project as following; 'Located close to a field wall, to the east of the farm house. There are a number of other stones here, including a small sub-circular stone with a large cupmark and a number of fragmentary disc querns. A small, sub-rectangular (dims. 0.69m x 0.28m x 0.19m thick) granite stone, with some moss growth. It is no longer in its original location.Only one face is decorated. The art consists of a combination of cup-and-ring motifs, linear grooves, and cupmarks. The two cup-and-ring motifs, which are joined by a linear connector (23cm long), consist of a cupmark (3-4cm diameter) enclosed by a single ring (overall motif size: 8cm, 10cm). There are two cupmarks to the right (3cm diam.) of and above (4cm diam.) the smaller cup-and-ring motif. Linear grooves extend from each of these cupmarks – a 30cm groove from the smaller cupmark, and a 13cm groove from the larger cupmark. Another groove (19cm long) is located to the left of the larger cup-and-ring motif and appears to follow the outline of the stone. There are a further three possible cupmarks above the linear groove that links the two cup-and-ring motifs'(www.wicklowrockartproject.com). See attached screenshots of 3D model of rock created by Wicklow Rock Art Project, School of Archaeology, University College Dublin under the direction of Dr. Clíodhna Ní Lionáin.
