Probable area of bedrock found on private property near Swartha, Silsden, West Yorkshire.
This carving was first noted by Jeff Walbank. It is located on a prominent knoll overlooking Haw Farm to the N. Quarrying has taken place in the immediate vicinity. The CSI: Rombalds Moor project referenced the stone ‘Haw 01’ on ERA in 2013, noting the motifs as:
‘…All of the motifs are found on the upper bedding layer in a fairly central position, and comprise a dumbbell shape with a debateable southerly cup with an inner lip; immediately S a single cup; a cup with a groove; to the SE, a smaller moss filled cup; and to the N, a further cup placed in an area between two bedding layers which give the impression of a ring…’

This decimated model was created from 6 stereo pairs captured by Richard Stroud (CSI team) in July 2013. The imagery forms part of the HLF funded CSI: Rombalds Moor / Watershed Landscape Project archive.
