Prehistoric carved rock found in the Low Plain area on Baildon Moor, West Yorkshire.
One of many carvings found in an area rich in prehistoric activity including cairns and co-axial field systems. Referenced ‘IAG 167’ by Boughey & Vickerman in their 2003 publication ‘Prehistoric Rock Art of the West Riding’, it’s described as:
‘Small, exposed area of deeply embedded rock. Three cups and a groove with other markings possible’
CSI: Rombalds Moor Project subsequently recorded the stone ‘Low Plain 17’ on ERA in 2012. They recorded a possible additional cup, but questioned whether the groove was natural or artificial.
