Small area of outcrop within on private farmland near West Horton in Northumberland.
This area of exposure is one of a number of carvings clustered together and was cross-referenced by the NADRAP team to ‘West Horton 1e’ on the Beckensall Archive (BA). The NADRAP team recorded:
‘Cup and linear groove under turf are faint and doubtful. Exposed cup well defined with possible arc.’
It isn’t clear whether the same area as the original BA record has been correctly identified, although there’s little doubt the markings are artificial.
