Description
Situated on rocky outcrops close to the shepherd's house at Eurach there are two groups of cupmarks.
Group One
On the level surface of a rocky boss overlooking a cliff immediately N of Eurach, there are at least thirty plain cupmarks (some linked by grooves), an oval pecked enclosure surrounding two cups, and many recent initials. About 5.5m to the E there is a single large cupmark which measures 120mm by 40mm. Some 6m to the SW, a rock-spine bears nine plain cups, the largest measuring 90mm by 25mm.
Group Two
Two plain cupmarks (70mm by 25mm) are situated on the top of a roche moutonnee which lies on the N side of the Ford road (B840) about 105m NNE of Eurach.
