Stone 2a at NZ8293903084. A low flat stone with a simple design of seven cups

Stone 2b at NZ8300503083. Five cup marks, two of which show traces of rings on a flat rock. The whole design is enclosed in a groove that roughly follows the shape of the stone.

Stone 2c at NZ8300503050. A boulder that may have formed part of a cairn. When I visited Allan Tofts the dull overcast day made many of the carvings indistinct, particularly this example. There are a couple of cup marks on the top of the stone plus several grooves across what I think is the western face.
