Outcrops and boulders
The carvings are found in several archaeological contexts in England. Most common are the decorated outcrop rocks and boulders, which comprise over 60% of the carvings. Some are on striking 'monumental' boulders like Old Bewick and Routing Linn; others are on flat stretches of outcrop like Chatton Park, but many are on small, quite unremarkable boulders.
