No ordinary stone: Cathy’s photo survey of the Lephinkil Stone shows up Cups & Rings

The CGDT Archaeology Group had a great weekend with the ACCORD Project surveying some of ColGlen’s archaeological remains. While we work up a full report for the CGDT website, here’s an idea of the type of output we were managing.

Below are screengrabs of the Lephinkil stone as surveyed by Cathy on Sunday in the midges.

The first is the view in colour, which shows how difficult it is to read these artefacts sometimes, and the second, in the lavender colour shows the cup features across the righthandside of the stone.

Plaudits to Eamon who spotted to the stone on the solstice!

Oh, and the featured image is Cathy taking the survey with all the rest of us looking on!
