sort of, the onlything I could find was that someone said they had seen it on table top mountain. Obviously there is no table top mountain in the mournes so I'm assuming this is a nickname for it either a widley used one or a personal one by the reviewer. I was looking on the map and I cant really see much in the way of a table top.....
