Fowberry Moor Portable (May 2006)3D Model
This prehistoric carved portable rock was found during an excavation on Fowberry Moor and was originally in the collections of the Museum of Antiquities in Newcastle (now Great North Museum: Hancock). Referenced ‘Fowberry Moor Portable’ on the Beckensall Archive (BA), NADRAP added the record to ERA in 2008, describing:
‘Three cups: 0.10 m by 0.08 m (clear pick marks in cup and around edge), 0.05 m by 0.04 m and 0.02 m by 0.02 m diameters, none very rounded. More like V-shaped notches than cups. Many of the pick marks are elongated - as though quite fresh tear-drop shape, and perhaps chipped with a sharp implement.’
