Carving on Snook Bank, north of Longframlington, Northumberland.
Snook Bank is an area rich in archaeological remains from prehistory through to fairly modern times when millstones were extracted. This carved boulder was found in a modern stone dump/ clearance by Team 2 during NADRAP recording and was added to ERA as ‘Snook Bank N08’ in 2008. The team describe:
“Large boulder, almost upright, lodged in middle of huge pile of field clearance boulders close to concrete access road. Two cups about 5 cm in diameter, 2 cm deep, which may have been originally on a horizontal outcrop but now on an almost vertical surface on south side.”
