Cow & Calf 05 (July 2013)

3D Model

Prehistoric carving found on moorland, approx. 200 metres west of the Cow and Calf Hotel, on Rombalds Moor, West Yorkshire.

This small rock can be found a few metres south of ‘Cow and Calf 04’ and is often obscured by vegetation. Referenced IAG313 in Boughey & Vickerman’s 2003 publication ‘Prehistoric Rock Art of the West Riding’ it’s noted as having 13 cups.

The CSI: Rombalds Moor project subsequently referenced the stone ‘Cow and Calf 05’ describing:

‘…Heavily weathered cups of varying sizes are aligned roughly with the bedding planes. Fifteen cups were observed, one of which is shallow but is probably carved.’
