Anyone know any reference to rock art being found in and around Gortmonly hill ~8km south of Derry?

You need to check on the gov't website with all the sites. I'll post a link later.

It looks like a stunner. I can see me heading up there in a couple of weeks!

Heyup. If it turns out that it's not been previously recorded, I don't think there should be any doubt about it's prehistoric-icity. Looks very much like the real deal.

Job well done :)
