Area of exposed outcrop in the Whitsunbank Hill area of Weetwood Moor, near Wooler, Northumberland.
This exposure is split into several parts by narrow, turf filled fissures. All but two of the exposures have motifs carved on them, ranging from cups, cup and rings, to cups with multi-rings and radial grooves. A number of other depressions may be natural. Originally referenced ‘Whitsunbank 2’ on the Beckensall Archive (BA), it was added to ERA as ‘Whitsunbank 2a’ by NADRAP in 2008.

Model created in September 2019, from 10 stereo pairs captured by Joe Gibson during NADRAP recording in Jan 2007. A calibrated 5mp Nikon Coolpix 5400 was used. The imagery forms part of the NADRAP / ERA archive. Some areas of the model contain data noise due to insufficient coverage for SfM applications.
