A carved rock on the NE flanks of Rombalds Moor, West Yorkshire, near Stead Crag.
Recorded IAG 386 by Boughey & Vickerman in their 2003 publication ‘Prehistoric Rock Art of the West Riding’, describing:
‘Large rock with a cup and two, probably natural, basins.’
10 years later, the CSI: Rombalds Moor project recorded the stone as ‘Stead Crag 01’ on ERA, detailing:
‘…N end of rock has pointed extension making it 2.3m wide at that end. Multiple cracks and undulating top surface; two conspicuous basins, one a large oval 0.2m x 0.25m x 0.08m deep. These are close to the one cup on this panel, which is 0.07m diameter.’

This decimated model was created from a single stereo pair captured by Peter Butler (CSI Team) in March 2013. The imagery forms part of the HLF funded CSI: Rombalds Moor / Watershed Landscape Project archive.
