Carved boulder within the remains of Coria / Corstopitum, the Roman fort in Corbridge, Northumberland.
Recorded as ‘Corbridge’ on the Beckensall Archive (BA it was added to ERA by NADRAP in 2008. Stan Beckensall describes:
“A four-sided groove with rounded corners encloses a central cup that has an arc formed by linking two small cups with a curved groove. Also enclosed are two large cups joined together to form an oval and seven other cups. The rest of the rock has nine large and some smaller cups. Four of the large cups are placed in a line parallel to the rock edge. The whole surface has been used, and the depth of the motifs is impressive.”
