Prehistoric carving found next to a marked track, 200 metres S of White Wells, on Rombalds Moor, West Yorkshire.
This is ref IAG 263 in Boughey & Vickerman’s 2003 publication ‘Prehistoric Rock Art of the West Riding’ where they describe:
‘Medium-sized upstanding rock of smooth grit. Triangular top surface has about seven worn cups, three connected by a short groove.’
The later CSI: Rombalds Moor project recorded the carving as ‘White Wells 05’ on ERA noting just 5 cups and the connecting groove.
Historic England have scheduled this carving, and describe: ‘The carving consists of five cups, one of them elongated’ : https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1012955?section=official-list-entry
This decimated model was created from 9 stereo pairs captured by Peter Butler of the CSI Team in August 2012. The imagery forms part of the HLF funded CSI: Rombalds Moor / Watershed Landscape Project archive
