Glovershaw 02 (July 2013)

3D Model

Possible prehistoric carving found in the Shipley Glen area, near Baildon, West Yorkshire.

First recorded by Sidney Jackson in 1962, this stone was referenced IAG123 in Boughey & Vickerman’s 2003 publication ‘Prehistoric Rock Art of the West Riding’, where they describe:

‘Small, low, slightly domed, smooth grit rock. Three cups with faint markings round and a groove.’

CSI: Rombalds Moor project recorded the stone ‘Glovershaw 02’ on ERA in 2013. They noted similar motifs but suggest a probable natural origin.

On this model, some features look natural, others possibly artificial.
