Full Description
Cup-marked stone. A sandstone outcrop, recorded by L Thoms in 1980, 4m east of the central circular homestead on Turin Hill, has three cup marks and three cup and ring marks. Recorded in 2019 as part of Scotland's Rock Art Project, which suggested that the cups may be natural in origin with rings added to the three largest.
