B5. Location Notes
This panel was searched for, but was not located during ScRAP fieldwork in September 2019. It is possible that this panel is either now under deep vegetation or that this record is a duplicate of either Claughreid 1 (ScRAP ID: 2076) or Claughreid 2 (ScRAP ID: 2298; Canmore ID: 304992).
Previous Notes
NX 5185 5607 Claughreid 9 Two cup marks each enclosed by four rings; nine midget-cups enclosed together by three rings with two cups between the second and third rings; one cup end by three rings; four cups each end by two rings; 28 cups each end, by one ring; and c92 solo cups. Initially only the two 4ñringed westernmost glyphs were on the exposed rock-surface, it took a considerable amount of excavation to reveal the other 75% of the site, this proved to be very worthwhile for not only did we discover a cluster of mini-cups end, by three rings but all the glyphs to the E of this were so un-weathered as to show their original peck-markings clearly.
