The Newgrange Corbel (Co.2/C14) is a stone dating from the Neolithic, located within the passage grave (ME019-045----) at Newgrange, Brú na Bóinne, Co. Meath, Ireland. Corbel Co.2 is located at the back of the east recess, immediately beneath a decorated roof stone. It is decorated with a chevron motif, a pattern seen across the corpus of decorated stones from Newgrange. The motif runs into the cairn at each end of the stone, showing that it was carved before being built into the structure. Later graffiti can also be seen on the stone’s surface.
