4,10011,"The Duddo stone circle is one of the most attractive monuments in Britain, with a setting that looks towards the Cheviots and to Scotland, including the Eildon Hills.  Its purpose may have been to mark a cremation burial at its centre, which has been inexpertly dug at some time, and its stone settings are far too small in circumference to place it with those circles that may be meeting places or religious centres for large groups of people.    The stones are naturally shaped for the most part, but at the bases they have been narrowed and smoothed.  One local name - 'The Women'-probably refers to their waists, and another, 'The Singing Stones', to the fluting, believed to trap the wind.  There are natural cups, deep and large, on one of the stones, but the most easterly has an oblique line of artificial cups.  It has taken me (Stan Beckensall) many visits to accept them as artificial.    The site is private, but permission from Duddo farm is graciously given when asked.  It is reached by a well-defined track north from the road, and the protected site is one of the most rewarding.  There would be a case for excavating the centre to locate the original pit, but at the moment it sits happily in a field that is constantly in use.  The centre has clearance stones from ploughing added to it, otherwise it is left to its grass and nettles.  There are many instances in Britain of standing stones with cups, linear grooves, cups and rings and spirals."

5,10006,"Tate (1865) describes this rock as ? a large surface of rock, some forty yards by twenty, having a gentle slope to the northward, is partially uncovered.  In one part, which has been entirely cleared of turf, fourteen figures are scattered over an area of fifteen feet by about from 5 to 7 feet.?  He comments on the ?new features ? that he encountered, several of which ?are curiously united by straight and curved grooves.  Across the entire diameter of a group of four concentric circles, runs a groove connecting them with other combined figures.  An irregularly shaped, rounded, angular figure, encloses two hollows or cups; and united to this is a broad oval figure.  One figure around four cups approaches to the reniform.?  His drawing does not quite tally with my own, which was made one hundred years later, during which time the rock surface has probably remained open to the weather.     A striking motif is a cup at the centre of two concentric circles with a diametric groove that runs on to link it with other figures.  Unusual is the west figure of concentric circles and two parallel straight grooves.  Discrepancies between the drawings are not necessarily to do with erosion, and a further comparison with Collingwood Bruce?s (1869) and a photograph show how recorders have a different perception of the same rock."

The other motifs include multiple concentric circles, the largest being referred to by Mr.Tate as 30"" diameter.  The difficulty of seeing some of the markings was particularly brought home to me when, after years of visiting the site, I found an unrecorded figure of three incomplete concentric arcs, and on another occasion I found that someone had removed a little turf and revealed some new ones, without reporting it.  All these are seen in the drawings, hopefully complete now.    Seven concentric circles is a large number for any British site, and although some features of this motif are faint, it can be seen that the ?circles? are made by rather angular lines joined together.  Two grooves, one very faint, radiate from a circle around the central cup, but not directly from it.  The outer circle is incomplete.  To the left are three cups, some uncertain cups, and one well-made figure of two concentric circles surrounding a cup, with an extra cup inserted between the circles.  The remaining motifs appear incomplete- not something to be accounted for by erosion alone.  The upper one has a cup and ring, with two incomplete concentric grooves outside, (one having two cups to guide it?).

11,10011,"The discovery of animal carvings on the wall of one of the rock overhangs by Maarten Van Hoek, is the first instance of anything other than abstract motifs, but they were not regarded with certainty as prehistoric.  However, the rock overhangs were certainly used for temporary shelter and for the burial of the dead in prehistoric times, as Colin Burgess? excavations have demonstrated, and Van Hoek?s discovery of linked cups above the rock overhangs, or shelters, may be more than their being an accidental juxtaposition.  During the filming of the site for a BBC programme, Ray Mears and I (Stan Beckensall) discussed the nature of the figures, and he saw them clearly as deer, and thought them to be prehistoric. They are similar to many others in the world, and may be contemporary with the burials.  If so, they are unique in Britain. The deer that are illustrated here are on the vertical face of the rock overhang on a good smooth surface that faces south.  The overhang catches the best of the sun.

12,10011,"Roughting Linn is a huge natural, whaleback shape of sandstone outcrop, an elongated domed ridge, 20m long and 12m wide, slightly higher than the land to the NW that flattens out before plunging into a gully formed by two small streams that join before flowing towards the Milfield Plain. It is the largest decorated rock in northern England, and perhaps the most famous.     Roughting Linn  was was discovered in 1852 by William Greenwell, who reported its discovery at the meeting of Archaeological Institute in Newcastle in the July of that year. Unfortunately, Greenwell?s report was not published in the two volumes that recorded the meeting.  Tate (1865) drew it in the mid-19th century, and a more thorough survey was made by Elizabeth Shee Twohig in 1988.  Richard Bradley has noted its similarity to a long barrow, and has commented on the way its motifs are arranged so that large concentric circles form a kerb.  The western part has been quarried away, before 1850, and a large slab has been removed across its width.  There is still one cup and multiple circle motifs on a surviving part to the west and although the south is gouged with mainly natural grooves, there are cups and rings there too, so this decorated kerb idea is sound.  Apart from its size and the fact that it just happened to be there, natural erosion on the southern part may have attracted artificial additions, a factor seen also at sites like Old Bewick.  The decorated kerb concept is one shared with Irish Passage Grave art, although the circumstances are different, for this is undisturbed outcrop rock and not panels arranged in an artificial structure.      In the area between the outcrop and the gully are the multiple ramparts and ditches of an enclosure that cuts off the promontory to the NW.  The small waterfall is formed by the Broomridgedean Burn falling over a ledge.  Where it falls into a pond is a place both sheltered and beautiful, with small cliffs rising on either side, one with an overhang.  To any group of people who regarded water as an object of veneration, this could well have been a special place.  Despite the tarmacadam road that cuts the triangular promontory, at its base, the area has a lingering timelessness.  The rock, the enclosure and the burn look west to the valley that leads to the Milfield Plain. To the east the views are impeded by higher ground, and to the SE the land rises to Doddington North Moor.  Goatscrag Hill may have been visible, as it is partially today, from the rock.  Just before the water tumbles over the ledge to cascade into the pool, there is some substantial outcrop covered by grass, and it would be interesting to see if this is marked in any way.    The rock at Roughting Linn has another tale to tell, for it reflects the inexplicable reluctance of the archaeological establishment to look after it.  Here we have one of the most important pieces of rock art in the world, and it has a crumbling, ancient, irrelevant notice board of remarkable ugliness.  To my knowledge (Stan Beckensall), in over 20 years there has been only one visit to ascertain the problems of erosion on the site, and no report or action followed.  There are small trees pushing roots into the rock.  Of course the site is beautiful, but how safe is the rock and its motifs?  If the site is to be accessible, which technically it is, why are there no finger posts to guide strangers there?  So many people end up at the farm.  If there should be some information about it, why not replace the present board with a new one, with a drawing?  It is helpful for people who come when the light is poor to see what is on the rock, and this may well help to encourage them not to walk all over it looking for the motifs.    We have a real problem here of recording, evaluation of what might spoil this rock, and of presenting it to interested people.  Compared with the amount of money that is, for example, spent on Hadrian's Wall, we are talking peanuts!    Access to the marked rocks is by public rights of way.  Should you wish to examine the rock overhangs at Goatscrag Hill, it is a courtesy to ask permission at Roughting Linn Farm.  You may approach from the Ford Moss site to the west or from Roughting Linn on the east.      The position is pivotal in the area, lying as it does at the head of the Broomridgedean valley, whose burn flows past the towering north scarp with its overhangs, burials, and the trail of rock art across the top of the ridge, to the now-removed round barrow cemetery at its west end before the Milfield Plain begins.  It is linked with the next group of rock art at Hare Law, whose site today does not evoke such aesthetic pleasure, and which lies in a different kind of landscape: more levelled out as it moves east towards the sea."

12,10006,"Much of the art is of the cup and ring type, quite deeply pecked in, especially on the circumference, and what is also so interesting about the way this rock has been used is that there is such a variety of motifs.  Near the top of the dome slope are flower-like stems with heads made of a cup surrounded by a ring.  Some of these grooves join each other, and some end in small cups.  There are clusters of cups enclosed by grooves, interconnecting with other enclosed cups.  There are, uniquely, nine radiates springing from the outer of two penannulars around a cup, itself connected to other figures, The SE slope includes concentric inverted arcs, and a variation of the cup and ring theme is the use of parallel grooves, six in the case of two linked figures.      Erosion has taken its toll in a hollow to the SE, but it has been possible through careful rubbing and by a replica made by John Price (formerly a Conservator at English Heritage), to trace the nature of these figures.  Slightly higher up the rock, above these, is by contrast a heavily-picked pair of concentric penannulars with a row of cups above that. The concentric grooves have been made by joining together separately-made cups; the divisions between these cups are still clear.  At first sight, the cups and rings look similar, but closer inspection shows some interesting difference.      To the SE of the quarried gash the ends of two penannulars are joined, and in the space between are three tiny cups in a row.  Attached to the outside penannular of another is a hook-like groove.  To the north, two grooves run uphill from the circles, and one group of four concentric circles has a diametric groove through the central cup.    The drawings, checked many times in different lights, show some figures fainter than others, not necessarily a result of erosion, but of being put on faintly originally, and perhaps unfinished.    DETAILS OF THE CARVINGS    Group A  (North slope)    This part of the rock is an elongated slope bounded on the south by a quarried gap.  There is a natural crack running from east to west.  To the north of this are three figures.  The most easterly is a cup and ring, with a duct running up the rock from this ring, a second broken ring, and a third angular ring enclosing the whole figure, but gapped where the duct emerges. This outer ring follows a natural fault in the rock that had already produced a raised diamond-shaped feature that the ring largely follows.     Next to this is a small figure of three rings on the east side around a centre that has pick marks but no cup, and on the west the three rings flatten into two. This outer ring seems to run into some difficulty where the rock is irregular, and at the top of the curve is an arc of three cups defining its path.  A small groove runs up the rock from the outer ring.    The westerly figure has a cup with a duct running down the rock, two complete rings, a third incomplete ring, and a fourth ring enclosing the whole.  In strong light the irregular blows of the chisel that have made the motifs can be seen.    To the south of the crack is a natural small basin at the east end, which has the addition of a partial ring.  West of it is a rough cup with a possible ring, then a more distinct figure of a cup and penannular and a broken penannular concentric to it.  An incomplete figure of two concentric rings lies west, then there is a fault in the rock like a bridge..  This bridge has a groove added that could have held a tether.    Another small figure of cup with two rings follows, then a large figure of four well-spaced concentric penannulars around a cup that is bisected by a radial groove.  The outer ring ends at crack, which cuts it off.  A faint large cup lies outside the outer ring.  To the NW are a faint cup, an arc, and a figure of a cup, ring with a duct, and two outer concentric penannulars.    A natural depression in the rock separates these figures from a spread of smaller ones to the west.  These are faint, but one has a cup, duct and two broken rings, a ring that surrounds some faint pecking, a cup, duct and arc, a cup and ring, cup, duct and penannular, and a cup and penannular.    Most of the ducts follow the downward slope of the rock, but three go upwards.    Group B    This part of the outcrop slopes eastward, the largest cup and ring motifs concentrating near the east edge, although there are some small cups and a small cup and ring below them.  The most easterly figure has a cup not central to its rings, and from it a duct runs to the edge of the rock.  Penannulars round the cup are drawn down the rock, making them more pear-shaped than circular.  The first two, deeply-picked, with the tool marks clear, stop at the duct.  The next pair stop at the north side of the duct, but the other two are looped, and inside the loop are three small cups in an arc.  There are signs that the line of this arc continues down the rock to meet the duct.  The arc of cups also suggests that an extra ring may have been considered between rings 3 and 4, but this is unlikely further up the slope as the gap is too narrow for an extra ring.      Attached to the outside ring is a cup and angular ring in a natural small depression, and separate from that is a groove that touches the ring from the outside.    To the west of this figure is a large deep cup with a duct that follows the slope eastward, and round it are concentric rings that have been cut off by quarrying.  The cup has three concentric penannulars, rather angular, and a groove begins to lead down the slope eastward from the gap in the third ring.  Outside is a fourth ring, but to the west it is almost erased.    Further west, and also cut by quarrying, is a small cup surrounded by three rings that end with a fault in the rock that forms a minor edge.  It is not clear what happens at this point.  There is one small outer arc that does not continue as a fourth ring.    To return to the eastern edge, the next figure is a deep cup and duct with a penannular.  A second concentric penannular, slightly interrupted by a fault in the rock, shows deep pick marks.  Added to it is a hooked groove, like a handle, and south of that are two deep cups, one with faint traces of a ring.    To the west is another deeply-picked figure, beyond the small natural ridge in the rock that runs obliquely across it, with a large cup and thin duct surrounded by two deep penannulars.  Like all the others, the penannulars open at the down-slope, and the ducts run downwards.  Further west is another set of cups and rings, this time a ductless cup with three deep penannulars.    Group C    Between the two figures just described is a deep cup with a thin groove to the south, and east of it is a thin arc.  There are some other traces of cups and small grooves that are more related to the more delicate figures now to be described:  Although cups and rings are still integral parts of the design, the next group concentrates on linked long grooves that follow the rock slope down.  At the head of one motif is a wide cup with a ring from which a linear groove extends.  The line joins the duct of a similar motif: a cup with a ring.  At the place where the two grooves meet, the groove changes direction slightly before continuing down the slope, where it ends close to two cups.  A third figure, a penannular around a cup from which a groove runs, is almost linked to the other two, but it does not quite reach.  It may be related to the cup with an arc below it, already described.  Close to the head of these three sets of motifs (of cup, ring and long duct) is a large cup with a semicircular arc, a cup with a small arc, and two cups.    Group D    A similar group of flower-like motifs lie to the north of C, but between them is a panel of motifs of a different kind.  It is separated from the NW part of the rock by a natural depression, and by a natural channel to the SE, forming a slightly domed surface.    At the top of the slope is a cup set high in a well-made, gapped ring, and a thin duct from this cup joins it to another cup further down the rock, also with a gapped ring, forming a figure of eight around the two linked cups.  Parallel to this on the south is a line of five cups, one with a penannular.  To the north, just outside the curve of the figure of eight, is a large cup.      The lower part of the outcrop is taken up by a wide cup with a penannular, below the opening of which is a polygonal groove (open at the north end) that encloses 5 distinct cups.  On the SE this enclosure groove cuts through the open ring around a cup, from which a small duct runs.  To the south are eleven cups in what appears to be a random scatter.  There are two cups on the opposite side.  The rock is naturally split to the NE, with some cups at the split edge, then two large cups lead on to the deep concentric ringed figures of Group B.      Group E    Echoing C, there are two figures linked by grooves.  A cup has an incomplete ring, from the ends of which two serpentine, parallel grooves run down the rock and end in small cups.  To the north, a cup has a duct running to a small cup also.  From the end of the arc another groove runs to meet the groove of its neighbour.  The three terminal cups are in line.  Another groove runs away north to the edge, but this may be natural, or enhanced.  On the south side it seems that a third linked figure was contemplated, but not completed: a cup has a penannular with its opening facing up the slope; one terminal has a groove running up the rock to a deep cup.  There are seven other cups to the south of this, the most southerly beginning a serpentine groove (perhaps natural) that runs into another large cup further down the slope.    Below all this (E) is a little promontory of outcrop with a rosette: a central cup with seven others around it, and another cup outside the circle.    These motifs, like many others, leave a strong impression that the patterns/designs/concepts grew as someone began to chip at the rock, and that there was no overall premeditated plan, nor any worry about finishing everything symmetrically.    Group F    The SE slope of this outcrop has unusual motifs.  The slope is steep, and the depression in the rock above it is mostly a natural feature.    To the south is a small cup, an arc (unfinished ring?) and two concentric rings that are not complete at the bottom.  Then there is a cup and duct with arcs of three concentric rings, and although the north part of this figure is clearly defined, the rest is either eroded or unfinished.  Further north there are several indistinct figures, including a deep cup with two arcs, an oval with a vertical line, and a figure that looks like a trilithon.    At the top of the slope, with the hollow behind, is a row of varied figures, beginning with three inverted Us (or semi-ovoids), and a deep cup and duct.  Next is a cup and duct with an arc above the cup that extends downward on either side of the duct, parallel to it, thus forming three parallel lines.  A second, outer ring is concentric to the inner arc, but continues to enclose the next figure to the north in a figure-of-eight.  This figure has a central cup with a duct, and two concentric penannulars, the RHS one continuing down the slope as a groove, and forming part of the figure-of-eight at the top.  Between this and the next figure is a vertical, unattached linear groove.  The distinct parallelism of these combined figures continues with the next figure, which has a cup and linear groove parallel to the others, and three concentric rings that disappear over the top edge of the rock where the hollow is.  To the north is a cup high in a penannular, with a concentric penannular outside it.  A small cup lies outside, followed by a crack in the rock that separates it from the next figure: two broken concentric rings around an oval hole in the rock.    On the opposite side of the hollow are some partial figures: two cups, a cup and arc, a large and small cup and arc, and a distinct cup, gap, duct, inner ring, and an incomplete outer ring.  Usually covered over, to the north are two concentric arcs with no cup, and some fragmentary grooves.    Group G    West of the markings just described, the rock slopes into an area slightly sunken, and subject to erosion, for water or ice frequently lie in it.  Despite the erosion, it has been possible to give a clear picture of what was picked onto the surface, through wax rubbings and through the model made of it by English Heritage conservator, John Price, whose panel has the advantage of being capable of being turned into strong oblique light.    At the south end of the hollow, where there are some small nodules of natural iron in the rock, is a deeply-marked cup and duct, with two concentric penannulars.  The outer ring has nine thin radiating lines that end in small cups - a unique motif.  The duct continues towards other figures, passing through two symmetrical arcs that face each other at their open ends.  Close to one arc is a small cup and ring.  Motifs that stand out most boldly are a cup, duct and two penannulars, with an outer arc that meets an irregular near-oval enclosure with faint traces of arcs inside it.  A groove from the outside of this enclosure becomes the duct to a cup with a penannular and a concentric ring, with traces of an outer ring that links it to the figure below.  There are other faint grooves, and one clear figure of a cup and three rings.  To the south is a cup, duct, and three penannulars.  West, on the edge of the rock, is a line of four deep cups, below which is a cup and two penannulars that are heavily picked into the rock with a wide point, and the rings are made by joining together a series of cups.  This contrasts with a fainter figure of a small cup and two or three broken concentric rings to the north.    Group H    This includes most of the remaining motifs, on the top of the outcrop and on the rough downslope to the south.  The top of the rock is naturally pitted with channels and small basins by the action of weathering, but the channels that run down the rock from these to the south edge are enhanced to form a distinct feature.  On the south slope, despite its very rugged surface, cups and rings have been imposed.  They are not easy to distinguish among the natural indentations, but three figures have a central cup, one with two or possibly three rings, another with a duct and three rings and an outer arc, while the third has traces of three rings.  The main feature on the slope is a long, deep channel similar to one at Chatton Park Hill.    There are three other motifs on the dome of the rock, consisting of a cup and two penannulars, a cup, ring and broken outer ring, and a figure on a minor edge that has a cup and three rings.     From here the top surface of the massive outcrop has been quarried away, but there is one motif surviving on the west edge that shows that its surface may have been marked all over: a small cup and two concentric penannulars, an incomplete ring, and two more penannulars ending at a slightly curved groove."
12,2,"When the viewer is slightly lower than the stone, approaching  from the east, the rock dominates the horizon.  Closer to the rock more of the surrounding area can be viewed.  In particular a distant view to the west includes lower-lying ground and the distant Cheviot Hills, flanked by higher ground to either side, including the Broomridge/Goatscrag area.  The site is a generally elevated position, partially surrounded by deep denes to the north and west, with higher ground eastwards.    There are a few possible monuments that are contemporary with the rock carvings.   A large, multi-ditched and banked enclosure is located nearby.  Previously recorded as an Iron Age hillfort, it is possible that this is a Neolithic enclosure, since no hut circles have been recorded inside.  The banks also appear graded in decreasing height into the enclosure?s centre, the converse expected of hillforts.  An earthen mound lies within, and it has been suggested to be a long barrow/mound.  There has been no recent ploughing and fieldwalking collections made in the immediate area.      The striking natural feature of Roughting Linn waterfall is just 200 m from the rock art site."

12,1,"This is a huge dome of outcropping rock dominating surrounding ground.  The recent removal of trees, a surrounding fence with gate and sign shows the whole dome to its advantage, gently domed along the line of the sandstone ridge and more sharply from west to east.  It is a single outcrop at this level, from the west appearing as a large crag.  The whole dome is in three sections; the central area is largely surviving outcrop falling away in all directions, with the flanking north and south portions largely quarried away, remaining as grass-covered edges and hollows.    The overall shape of the dome is similar to that of a large cairn with the rock art around as a decorated skirt, though no burial evidence has been recorded.    The quarrying of the rock is undated, though likely to be Post Medieval, with possible loss of rock art motifs. Early illustrations of the site show cut-out portions with ?steps? of straight and sheer edges where rock has been removed, and tool marks can be seen across all areas of the dome.    The surrounding trees and other vegetation which threatened the panel have recently been cleared as a result of an agreement between English Heritage and the landowner. The fence and signpost referred to in the Beckensall Archive notes (which pre-date the current notes) have also been removed and a new information board will be erected in due course.

13,10006,"There is a long well-defined groove, probably natural but enhanced, that divides the rock north to south, and others less obvious that are parallel to it.  There are many motifs, but the clearest are three sets of concentric rings in a line.  The largest of these, to the east, has a cup and a very erratic duct that does not start from the central cup, and there are four sets of concentric penannulars, mostly angular, flattening to the south.    The second in line, NE, has a ductless cup with two angular penannulars, their open ends facing the larger figure just described.  Two grooves lead away from its outer ring on the north side, one so long that it reaches the end of the outcrop.  The shorter of the grooves runs through a cup, and a cup with a small duct and penannular.    The third figure, NE, has a cup with two angular rings.  A little fainter than these three motifs, and to the south of them, is a cup with two angular rings, and a number of faint depressions on the surface that could be natural.  The east part of the rock, above the long linear groove, has motifs of various depths.  North of the largest figure are two cups with two rings, the outer rings touching.  There is a fainter cup and ring in this little cluster.  Further north is a cup with an angular gapped ring.  On the east edge there is a thin serpentine groove leading to a cup, and short duct and penannular, and in line with this is a ringed cup with a groove (probably natural) running from it.  This groove is joined by another from the edge of the rock, with a cup and ring.  There are some other irregularities on the surface, which may be natural."

20,10011,"Following Stan Beckensall's note (below), the panel was re-discovered by Mr Barry Evans (Border Archaeological Society) in 2004.    'No one has seen this rock recently, as it is buried, so we have to rely mainly on the drawings made by Mr Bruce and Mr.Tate.  Half a mile north of Doddington village just west of the A6111 road the stone was discovered by Miss Procter in 1859.  As it was covered by a foot of soil, the clearing of the stone revealed fresh markings.  Mr. Tate describes it:    ""It juts out from the hill side - an irregular mass - ridged and broken on the surface, sloping more or less in all directions, but chiefly towards the west; the whole surface, which is 9 feet long by seven feet broad, is crowded with figures, chiefly of the ordinary type of concentric circles, some of which are grouped into compound figures by grooves.  Here there are oval, horseshoe, and pear-shaped figures.  One form is very peculiar; a circle around a cup, and with two hook-like grooves from one side of the circle.    Very rude are both the shape and workmanship of the figures; many of the incisions are shallow, still retaining distinct marks of the blunt tools by which the rock had, with little skill, been chipped away.  Some of the hollows are, however, wide and deep.  Thirty figures are traceable on this stone.""    Mr. Tate and Mr. Bruce drew the rock differently.  It needs to be re-examined and drawn accurately.    Mr. Bruce said that the Rev, William Procter ""observed traces of burial which escaped the ordinary observer?groups of large stones, and beneath the cultivated soil, a fair quantity of fatty matter, apparently animal.  The field had evidently been an ancient graveyard.""    The Rev Procter (Procter, W The History of Doddington p 8 MS transcription at the Literary and Philosophical Society, Newcastle upon Tyne) writes:    From this field in my time scores of loads of stone have been carted off, manifestly broken by the hand for some purpose and conveyed thither in time long past. They were similar in size and form to stones used in building crypts (he probably means cists), hence we may infer that this Chesters field had been once a burying ground?Two crypts have been found in my time in the outskirts of this field. The rest had been broken up long ago.   Whether Chesters and Cain Heads refer to the same field is not clear, but it seems that Chesters lies to the south of the Chesters field.    Messrs. W. and G. Davidson re-excavated the rock in 1933, and said that it measured 8' north to south, 10' east to west, and was marked over most of its area with 67 markings, all with very clear tool marks.  They left the rock exposed for three days, and it has been covered ever since.    Its position is at a high viewpoint at 100m. OD that overlooks the valley of the Doddington Dean Burn to the massif of Doddington Moor and the valley flows into the Milfield Plain, so the site overlooks the access to the Plain.  It is very densely packed with motifs, and occupies an important site in the landscape.  There may be others still buried there."

All panels enjoy views of the immediate valley, as well as beyond to the Hetton Burn and Fell Sandstone Group terraces.   Lengthy views can be obtained down the Till Valley as well towards the Aln-Coquet watershed portions of the Fell Sandstones, which includes other rock art areas, such as Chatton Park.

Fieldwork has identified a few possible later monuments nearby.   Quarrying, probably Post Medieval, is evident at and alongside the rock art panels, and the stone may have been used to build a long wall which divides the area. The wall hmay also incorporate a possible standing stone, likely Bronze Age.  An earth bank may be a relict of Post Medieval ploughing. Two small cairns have been recorded in the midst of the rock art series; they are of unknown type or date.    Extensive ploughing of the surroundings has led to clearance of stones, and it is unknown how much natural stone might have been removed.

41,10006,"The long slab is shaped like a shallow trough, curving outwards from a centre line that has a cup at the centre, from which a line of pick marks runs in one direction, and a line of cups flanked by a picked groove in the other.  It is like a curved spine. The cup also acts as a focal point for five picked grooves across the width of the rock, and these roughly parallel grooves are underlined by a long lateral groove that crosses the rock and ends in a large cup.  Traces of incomplete cross-hatched grooves are seen at the bottom of the rock, indicating that someone thought of continuing the idea further. These finely-picked grooves cover much of the rock and continue the motif of parallel lines crossing a central spine, with some variation such as a groove that loops from one cup to another, and a serpentine groove that curves round two large cups. But the other element is the use of cups, and if one shuts out for a while the grooves, the cups form their own pattern: - a curved enclosure confined to the right hand side of the rock, and a line of four large cups across it.  The effect is unique in rock art, and again we see how individual manipulation of common symbols can produce different effects."

53,10003,Cows and sheep walking on the carvings.
53,10006,"There are three levels of rock, and the motifs on the lowest level are unique.    The flat surface has been zoned by a number of curvilinear grooves.  At the top left, one of these enclosed a rectangle that in turn enclosed a number of cups, only one of which remains today.  A duct from this rectangle joins its surrounding groove, and an oval enclosing three small cups touches this groove at the left-hand corner.  In the same half of the rock, at the bottom, is a large arc, with one cup inside, and to the left, separated by four cups, is a slightly wavy long groove.  The rest of this half is taken up by a penannular groove (the top of which is flattened), surrounding cups, some of which have tails.  A duct leads out of one of these cups through the gap in the penannular, flanked by two small cups.  There is a large cup to the right.    A crack, grass-filled, separates the two halves of the rock.  Between the higher two surfaces is an elongated flat area at the top of which is a complex arrangement of motifs that includes a cup and duct surrounded by a stopped circular groove and a penannular.  The duct runs through the inner circle diametrically.  To the left of this is a rough square with one rounded corner that encloses ten cups, four of which are arranged in an arc, and two are linked to a duct that bends sharply to cross the rock surface from right to left.  Tate's drawing shows that this groove used to link up with the top figures in the left half of the total rock surface.    Above the rough square are three cups and a small cup with a penannular.  At the crack there is a square surrounding a cup, and below it is a rectangular figure of three concentric grooves with rounded corners, surrounding 14 cups.  These cups are arranged in a pattern: a line of four at the top, seven in an arc, and three at the bottom, the central one being the beginning of a duct that runs to the end of the rock.  There are a few other scattered cups.    The eroded, higher level of rock still has a cluster of nine cups, two cups that have the remains of arcs above them, and four other cups, but the rings on Tate's (1865) drawing are either under grass or worn away."

53,10011,"The discovery of this impressive rock is described by Tate (1865): ""It was almost entirely covered over with turf till 1855, when it was observed by Mrs Procter, who caused part of it to be cleared; another portion was cleared in the course of this present year, and now an area 16 feet by 8 feet is exposed, covered with figures.  The overlying peat which has preserved these singular sculptures, was from a few inches to one foot in depth?Three other groups of figures, curved and irregular forms, are on the scalp of the same rock, but at some distance from each other- Plate VI, figs. 2,3,4.  Twenty - four figures are traceable on these stones.""    Tate (1865) and Bruce (1869) drew the rock, and it is clear that part of it has been removed since then.  The main difference from what we see today is that part of the western motifs have gone.    Another important observation is that there are three levels of the rock surface, and that the main motifs occupy the lowest level, well-preserved by peat and turf, and deeply pecked into the rock.  The right corner of the drawing shows that some cups and partial rings have eroded considerably, or were pecked on lightly.  A possible explanation for this is that some rock with older motifs was removed, and new motifs put on at a lower level in prehistoric times.  Why?  This happened at Fowberry Plantation and at Gayles Moor (Richmondshire).  The Fowberry example is particularly striking, because a rectangular block has been removed and a motifs with every pick-mark fresh have been placed at the base of the space left, with eroded motifs on the old surface having similar designs of cups and rings.  An explanation is that the rock slab with motifs was deliberately removed for incorporation in a monument.    This important, elaborate rock art panel, viewed from the east to appreciate its designs, gives only a limited view of the Milfield Plain, although the Cheviots and scarp edge are in sight.  It occupies a place that has all-round views of the landscape."

65,10006,"A large sloping surface with a large crack at the east end that separates two faint cups and a faint cup and arc from the rest of the motifs.      At the top (S) there are two grooves and some faint cups and arcs, below which is the main design.  This is the closest we come to anthropomorphism in our rock art, but this may not have been the intention.  Two cups from which long grooves run down the rock are enclosed by an angular groove that loops round to enclose them.  One of these cups has a small arc over it that continues downward to join the enclosing groove.  The long grooves running down the rock are notched as they leave the enclosing groove, and curve slightly at the bottom.  The eastern groove is met at about half its length by another groove that curves away towards the top of the rock, enclosing five smaller figures, three of them being cup, groove and penannular, cup and ring with the beginnings of another circle inside, a cup from which a duct runs uphill, with a circle round it and an arc.  There are three cups, two of them echoing the 'occulus' effect of the larger figure beside it.  Outside, at the bottom, is a cup, duct and ring, with an outer penannular.    Three motifs to the west produce an 'umbrella' effect: each has a cup and duct running from the cup, each surrounded by penannulars.  The most easterly has two inner penannulars, outside which is a large irregular groove, one end of which continues to run down the rock and join the duct from the central cup. The other end of the same outer groove drops another serpentine groove down the rock, parallel to the others.  Two cups and arcs act as spacers in this design, and again we see the smaller figures being encompassed by the larger, and the continuity of the theme is enhanced by the use made of a small fault in the rock.     A small cup and duct, two arcs and a groove overhead that links this motif to those on either side of it is a smaller figure that continues the flow of the design, the outer arc reaching the large arc that almost encloses the next motifs: a small central cup with a duct, and three penannulars, with a single cup added.  The lower part of this figure is faint, but the groove appears to run on, and this uncertainty may be a result of the design being unfinished, as the bottom of the slope is free from erosion.    Standing a little apart to the west is a figure that combines the elements of the others: a central cup around which is a penannular, another penannular, the terminals of which begin parallel grooves that run down the rock, and about half way down a straight short groove branches out to the west, and a curved groove to the east.  Part of this is what we refer to as a 'keyhole' pattern.    Familiarity with this rock leads me to the conclusion that this is a planned design and not a random collection of symbols.  There is a unity and a fluidity in it that is aesthetically pleasing."

68,10006,"A large outcrop with different levels.  The upper, southern surface has most motifs, but they are faint.  Among different-sized cups are four figures: one cup with two arcs, a cup, groove and penannular, a cup and penannular with an irregular outer ring, and a cup and duct with an inner ring, an incomplete second, and an outer faint ring.    To the north at a lower level is a pristine design, and it could be that the upper surface of the rock has been removed to make way for it.  The design, although using familiar symbols, is unique.  A cup and duct centre on two penannulars.  An outer groove not only encloses these, but flattens out on a crack and curls round to form the outer arc of another cup-centred figure.  The groove that lies on the crack is paralleled by another that bends round at each end to form a long oval bisected by the continuation of the west figure's duct, flanked by two cups.  An extension of the elongated oval then runs parallel to the duct running from the cup.  There is a large cup lying outside the figure.    This design is quite sophisticated, and very well executed and preserved.  It was so deep that when I first removed the turf to record it, the whole pattern was deeply embedded in the turf's soil, and when I re-covered it the top fitted like a glove."

There are no associated monuments contemporary with the rock carvings in this area.  The nearest such monument is a stone circle at Doddington Moor.  There has been widespread agricultural improvement and plantations of the surrounding ground.  This has resulted in the destruction of a later prehistoric unenclosed settlement, possibly Bronze Age, and led to the discovery of several prehistoric flint artefacts.  Several loose stone scatters are noted in the nearby field edges as modern clearance cairns.  The good views from elevated parts of the area are indicated by the presence of  a number of World War 2 pillboxes."

75,2,"This area extends from the flanks of Doddington Moor/Dod Law as moorland, arable and pasture farmland and plantations.  It is largely flat, ending with steep western and southern slopes down to the Till.  It is based on a low Fell Sandstone Group terrace, which occasionally outcrops in the western slopes.  There are craggy portions across the area with steep, localized, slopes.  Slopes to the east are generally gentler, extending eastwards to Buttony.    From the plateau edges wide views can be obtained in a variety of directions to the distant Cheviot Hills and other Fell Sandstone Group areas, and over and along the Till valley.  This includes some rock art areas, such as the north of Weetwood Moor and the main Chatton Park-Old Bewick ridge.  The crags and rising ground of Doddington Moor/Dod Law prevent an all-round view of distant areas.    The gentle slopes have allowed Post Medieval ploughing of the ground to be undertaken with disturbance and destruction of archaeological monuments.  A few monuments contemporary with the rock art panels of the Neolithic/Early Bronze Age have been recorded.  These include Cuddie?s Cave rock shelter on the western flanks of Gled Law from which rock art has been recorded, as well as barrows and cairns with grave goods and others which are possibly related to agricultural clearance.  These were discovered in the 19th century, as ploughing started on the flatter portions of the area.    The steep slopes have escaped the ploughing and a number of monuments have been recorded.  These enclosures and settlements are thought to date from the Bronze Age onwards, or the later prehistoric periods, remaining as earthworks.

For example, Mr Davison also recorded ""One cup with a faintly discernible ring"" where it is now pasture.

There is also a variety of motifs, with radial and diametric grooves, angular and circular concentric grooves, and rosette arrangements of cups.    The Buttony group, although having characteristics that can be seen elsewhere, is particularly important for the number of rosettes, for the multiple concentric circles, and for the contrast between pristine and eroded or tentative motifs.

89,10006,"This outcrop is on two levels, and has some very fine rock art at both levels.  On the higher level is a cup and duct with five concentric penannulars and a trace of a sixth.  Outside it is a cup with a faint penannular, below which is a linear groove ending in a cup, that links it with the design on the lower level.    The lower level has two distinct types of execution: there are two faintly-pecked series of incomplete concentric circles and 27 cups, mostly bold and deep.  The top figure has five incomplete concentric circular grooves centred on a crack in the rock, and the other group is four concentric arcs, again centred on a crack, that may have been penannulars.  All the signs are that these figures are either earlier and eroded or simply tentative and unfinished.  The outer penannular of one is cut by the wide, bold groove that encloses a very well-executed cup, duct and seven concentric penannulars, which is joined to the groove by a curving line that leads to the central cup and duct.  The groove enclosure, formed as an irregular four-sided figure, tapering at one end, is interrupted by four big cups that continue its line.  It could be that originally the course of the whole enclosing groove was planned as a number of joined cups (a technique seen on other sites), and it also seems that the upper layer of rock was included in the whole design.  In addition to the multiple concentric penannulars, there are other motifs enclosed: three cups in a line, a cup and duct with a penannular, a cup and ring with a broken circular groove outside, and two other cups."

What Mr. Tate considered ""rudely formed"" means that no attempt had been made to deepen or smooth the cups and grooves; they were left with the pick marks clear."

96,2,"This area extends from the flanks of Doddington Moor/Dod Law as moorland, arable and pasture farmland and plantations.  It is largely flat, ending with steep western and southern slopes down to the Till.  It is based on a low Fell Sandstone Group terrace, which occasionally outcrops in the western slopes.  There are craggy portions across the area with steep, localized, slopes.  Slopes to the east are generally gentler, extending eastwards to Buttony.    From the plateau edges wide views can be obtained in a variety of directions to the distant Cheviot Hills and other Fell Sandstone Group areas, and over and along the Till valley.  This includes some rock art areas, such as the north of Weetwood Moor and the main Chatton Park-Old Bewick ridge.  The crags and rising ground of Doddington Moor/Dod Law prevent an all-round view of distant areas.    The gentle slopes have allowed Post Medieval ploughing of the ground to be undertaken with disturbance and destruction of archaeological monuments.  A few monuments contemporary with the rock art panels of the Neolithic/Early Bronze Age have been recorded.  These include Cuddie?s Cave rock shelter on the western flanks of Gled Law from which rock art has been recorded, as well as barrows and cairns with grave goods and others which are possibly related to agricultural clearance.  These were discovered in the 19th century, as ploughing started on the flatter portions of the area.    The steep slopes have escaped the ploughing and a number of monuments have been recorded.  These enclosures and settlements are thought to date from the Bronze Age onwards, or the later prehistoric periods, remaining as earthworks.  Ridge and furrow also survives in places with Post Medieval field banks."

97,10006,"This description is based on recording made by Stan Beckensall in January, 2001. Since then more carvings have been uncovered; this can be seen by comparing the two drawings that are presented.     The quality of the decoration is stunning, and this is one of the most sensitive uses of the shape and variations of any rock panel that I know.     The floor of the overhang is 2.5m long and 1.60 m at its widest. There is certainly a prime case for calling the decoration of this outcrop ?art?, for the people who pecked the motifs onto the rock were sensitive to the whole surface that they wished to use, taking into account all the slight variations that were presented to them.    Variations in slope have determined the direction of grooves running from cups that are mostly central to concentric rings. These grooves were most likely the first use of the rock, for they occupy natural depressions and enhance them. Cups begin some of these grooves; concentric rings stop at some of these grooves and others cut through them. One long groove is drawn across the surface parallel to the width of the floor and to the straight west edge of the outcrop, almost reaching the back wall of the overhang and ending at its north edge. It is an important part in the design, dividing the motifs into two parts (referred to as right and left in this account).    All the grooves run down the slope of the rock in a direction determined by slight variations in slope, except the linear groove that runs roughly parallel to the rock overhang for about 1.70m. The wide groove to the right of the main division has good examples of pick marks, although the marks on the rest of the surface seem either to have been smoothed by grinding or by water running down them (if the floor had been exposed for a long time). The motifs furthest south, up-slope are more worn than those at the bottom, and this suggests a soil accumulation at the bottom to protect them.    There is an unattached groove in the right hand section, well made and deep, flanked by a cup and short groove with a slightly elongated ring. To the right are two sets of three penannulars one above the other with their cups linked by a deep groove that ends at the north edge. Between them and the central groove are to faint motifs: a cup and arc and an oval groove surrounding two small cups. Above, joined to the linear groove by its outer ring is a cup at the centre of two penannulars. At the very limit of the shelter wall is a cup and angular groove. To the right of this string of motifs is a similar parallel arrangement beginning with a cup at the centre of two rings linked by a groove from the cup to a lower cup at the centre of three broken rings; A groove from the inner ring of the lower figure almost meets the outer ring of motifs consisting of two penannulars around a large central cup, the groove from which reaches the north end of the rock.  The depth of the cups is enhanced in many cases by their being in natural hollows so that they are counter-sunk.  The decoration on the right hand side, apart from some faint arcs and a cup, ends on the almost vertical thin edge to the west, where there is a ring and two concentric arcs. It does not appear to have been cut through.    To the left of the central division a long groove begins with a cup, passes a faint cup and arc on its left and a cup, to the centre of the deepest and clearest motif: a cup at the centre of a ring and three concentric penannulars. The groove continues to the rock edge diametrically, and another groove runs from the same cup radially. At the lowest part of the rock, which naturally comes to a point, the small triangle has become a focus of a most elaborate treatment where packed motifs flow into one; The outer penannular of the largest figure runs in to the outer deep oval surrounding a cup and groove. Between it and the central division is a faint cup and diametric groove at the centre of two ovoids.    Below it is a cup and another two ovoids around a cup and short groove. To the east of the long dividing groove are four large motifs of three and two well-spaced rings united by the grooves from the central cups as they flow down the rock. One other cup completes the motifs on this triangle.  The most easterly group of motifs is more complicated, perhaps because the surface was more irregular to begin with. At the top a cup and arc has a looped groove around it from the end of which loop and the central cup a groove curves down the rock. It becomes an outer ring of a motif of two concentric rings surrounding a cup from which a groove runs, parallel to another groove from the inner ring. Below is ac cup with an arc below it. The most easterly motifs are a cup at the centre of two rings from which a curved groove runs to meet the outer arc of an irregular figure of cup and ring, concentric arc, and arc. From the lateral groove at the top is a vertical groove     There is a distinct design about this; in any age this is the work of an artist.    The way the motifs flow into each other, taking every advantage of the natural slopes and irregularities of the rock surface is similar to the concept on the main rock on Old Bewick Hill. Fluidity and inter-connection, the spacing of grooves, and the use of what the rock had to offer in the first place must make this one of the world?s greatest sites.  What significance the rock shelter had for the people who decorated it in this way is not known. The absence of anything funerary today does not preclude it from having been used in that way, but we cannot speculate any further. What we can admire is the great wide stretch of landscape that this site dominates. It is truly a very significant viewpoint. That it has been chosen for special and skilled treatment, lying in an area of similar high quality decoration, makes on e wonder what went on there."

97,2,"The position of the site prevents any view to the south but to the north there is an extensive, uninterrupted view towards the distant Cheviot Hills, and other nearer rock art (Doddington and Horton Moors, the Hetton Burn and Lynham areas).  These areas surroundthe low-lying agricultural, and annually ploughed, lands immediately below the crag.    There are no other certain monuments contemporary with the rock art shelter here.  The Ketley Stone is of uncertain date and purpose, though outwardly similar to a standing stone.  Other rock art has been recorded in the Chatton Park area, with an Iron Age date proposed for the nearby hillfort .  The relative absence of rock here has prevented large-scale quarrying, although some has taken palce, possibly for the adjacent (undated) stonewalls.  Nearby crag locations have produced Mesolithic flint tools but no chipping waste has beenfound around this crag."

To the left is a similarly-confused or tentative motif figure. The same incompleteness characterises cups and rings to the west of the central groove. Whether they have been badly eroded or were only rough-outs is not clear. They include an almost triangular faint motif.    Under turf to the E is a pristine motif that has been re-covered since Mike Stanway and I uncovered it in 1973; we immediately replaced the thin turf after recording it.

The upper side, which has shaped depressions was probably the exposed part of the rock prior to moving into this rock pile, these are considered to be natural weathering and water erosion. There are also two clear and well-defined cups of equal size and shape. They measure 6 cm in diameter, are very regular and deep and appear on the lower front face near the ground, although originally the cups would have faced upwards. The weathered channels do not show evidence of enhancement, though the shapes and possible ring outline to one depression do hint at this. A triangulation mark has been carved on the west side."

121,10003,At present there is no threat but the future of this depends on the continuation of the Defra stewardship scheme.
121,10006,"There are motifs on the crown of the rock in the form of parallel serpentine grooves, cups, and simple cups and rings. The main natural feature of the rock is a large irregularly shaped basin from which a channel snakes its way down the slope eastward. This feature seems to have been enhanced. To the south of the channel are groups of domino cups, a cup at the centre of three incomplete rings, a cup and arc, and at the bottom is a cup at the centre of a five-sided box with an external arc. From the arc a groove runs down the slope, parallel to a wavy groove from the box. Below this are two cups enclosed by an angular ring, with angular grooves concentric to it. Already we see two kinds of symbols: roughly circular grooves and more angular grooves.    To the north of the main channel, close to it is another box-like figure with a small cup enclosed, but this is faint compared with the cup at the centre of three deeply pecked concentric rings. The cup has a small duct leading from it down the rock, the line of which is extended faintly up the rock as a radius to reach the outer ring. Other faint figures, unattached grooves and incomplete concentric rings lead to the most distinct design of all. This is a cup from which a long groove runs down the rock, almost meeting the channel.    Around the cups are three concentric rings and a penannular. Then an unusual variation on the cup and ring theme appears: a small cup above the central one has its own ring that is attached to the fourth penannular around the main central cup. The next two concentric rings follow that pattern, giving the seven concentric rings a distinct crown.  The groove from this central cup is joined by a groove from the centre of three concentric penannulars that are distinctly angular. Close by is a square groove with nothing at its centre ? an unusual motif. Above the large motif are some faint cups and rings. South of the main motif is a cup at the centre of five concentric rings, this time with no duct leading from it. It lies on the edge of the outcrop, and there is another duct above it leading from the main one, this time away from the channel to the east edge of the rock.    The depth of cups and grooves and perhaps the action of water as it runs down the rock has preserved the main figures that we see today. Fainter figures are not necessarily eroded, but may be pecked on faintly with less sense of purpose."
121,10008,There are motifs on the crown of the rock 10m SW of public footpath. From the west edge there is an uninterrupted view across the Till valley to the tops of the Cheviot Hills.
121,10011,"The sense of space, the use of the natural basin and channel are all important parts of the design. Unfortunately, the nineteenth century saw people trying to lay a claim to cheap immortality by bringing up tools to carve their names and the date on the rock."

142,10006,"A horizontal, relatively smooth outcrop has been selected for motifs of high quality.    The rock has natural cracks from north to south, and when the rock is viewed from the south, they help to draw the eye in that direction.  The rock is also crossed from east to west by a serpentine groove that links the cups of the most southerly figures, and two other figures project grooves away from their central cups to the east.    To the SW is a separate motif; a cup at the centre of two complete rings.    To the SE, a series of three connected motifs begins with a cup and duct and five penannulars.  The duct runs on to join the outer circle of a cup, ring and three penannulars, the duct from the cup in this case aligned eastward towards a cup.  A faint linking groove from the outside penannular touches the outer ring of the largest figure: a large cup with five penannulars which flatten out at the bottom.  A serpentine groove from the central cup bends to the west to reach the central ring around a cup, with three penannulars outside that ring.    To the east of the largest figure is a small cup with a duct running SE, and two penannulars.    This is a very well-executed design, and although it has been exposed for at least 100 years, the pick markings are clear.  There is a strong sense of fluidity, of inter-connection, in the arrangement of the motifs, and to the modern eye it is impressive."

156,10011,"By chance, I (Stan Beckensall) was living nearby when the land around the Weetwood sites was bulldozed and cleared of heather and stone, ready for grass planting.  I had seen the low mound between the public path and the road, with a large stone projecting on the south side with two apparently natural cups on top.  The low mound, no higher than the large stone, oval in shape, had not been recorded, and had presumably gone unnoticed when permission was given for the field clearance to go ahead in May, 1982.    Boulders were removed from the area, and dumped beside the public footpath and at the edge of the outcrop hill, where some remain.  The mound was bulldozed, and the large stone lifted and dumped with other clearance, north of the footpath.  It was then that I saw the large stone, with its remarkable pattern of cup, concentric rings, and radial grooves.  The shallow hole from which it had been taken was just about visible in disturbed soil.  The farmer, David Murray, not only agreed to halt work at my (unofficial) request, but got his men to search the area for more decorated cobbles.  He also agreed to my excavating the site, and to its reinstatement after excavation.  He saved all the cobbles in a heap that had been removed from the site of the mound.    An examination of sparse documentation revealed that Canon Greenwell had investigated six possible burial cairns, two of which had cists with no bodies remaining.  These did not have precise locations, and only one is still visible, outside the area of rock art on the public footpath leading west from site 6.  I regarded the bulldozed site as a possible burial cairn, and set out my excavation grid in an area surrounded by recent ploughing.  Field walking in the disturbed ground did not produce any flints or other artefacts.    About three-quarters of the mound had been bulldozed away, and what was left was carefully trowelled to base.  At the same time, marked cobbles were being recovered and saved.      A team of eight people was involved in the excavation and recording.  Every stone left at base level in situ was recorded, and the area carefully examined for evidence of burial (a cist pit, for example).  There were no signs of burial.    The natural base of the field had a compact pebble layer, and the soil among the stones included pebbles.  Most of the cairn stones were of the cobble type, rounded, and they included volcanic rock brought down by ice.  The stones left in situ were not quarried, but were of the type found on the surface during clearance.  Only one edge of the oval-shaped mound retained any kind of integrity.  There was no kerb of larger stones, but the periphery was made up of cobbles, with the exception of the large, rounded sandstone boulder the motifs of which originally faced inward.  Its base was flat and had been sunk in a shallow hole, its flat base giving it sufficient stability to stand upright.    The drawing shows the disposition of the undisturbed stones in the mound, but there was nothing more to report other than the extraordinary number of marked cobbles found in the mound's structure.  21 were found in situ, mostly face-down.  I had found 4 in the spoil heaps before the excavation began, and the rest of the 'loose' marked stones were picked up by the farmers.  All the marked stones were sandstones, and no markings were found on volcanic rocks.    It was impossible to distinguish between recent and ancient disturbance at the centre of the mound, and there was no sign of a cist pit.  Had the mound been built over a body, there would be no survival.  There was no evidence of cremated remains or burning.    The large marked boulder could have been on the site as a standing stone, and the oval mound constructed with it as a kerb marker.  The fact that the motifs face into the mound and were not meant to be seen is important.  Even as a standing stone it is unlikely that its pattern would have faced north, for it was more likely to be viewed on the approach to the panels of rock art on the hill to the north.  The deliberate obscuring of uneroded motifs means that the motifs were a private and not a public gesture - not meant to be seen- and more concerned with the dead than the living.  They are different in concept from motifs in the landscape: it is as though they have been deliberately turned into the earth instead of facing the sky, and therefore more concerned with the dead than the living.  Even though the mound may not have been used either primarily or exclusively as a burial, it had an important ritual function in the landscape.  It does not lie among the markings on the hill, but stands on the edge of the concentration.    The placing of marked cobbles in a mound, a deliberate, calculated placement in the case of those turned face down, makes nonsense of the idea that they just happened to be a convenient building material lying around.  The cobbles had been selected for size, shape, and surface area, probably held on the lap, and chipped with a hard stone tool to produce cups and grooves.  All these pick marks are visible and uneroded, and some are marked on two sides.  Not all the motifs are completed, and it seems that the act of putting some basic symbols on the rocks was sufficient for the ritual purpose.    The presentation of the mound as an oval shape is largely conjectural, but it has the effect of allowing us to gather the loose stones together in one place, and of highlighting the position of the standing kerb stone.  It will also keep machinery clear of this stone.  Most of the marked cobbles are at Berwick Museum, but one was requested by the Science Museum, London.  One was left, sentimentally, on the mound.    This site, together with the one close by at Fowberry, has given us a new dimension on the use of rock art in monuments.  Mounds incorporating marked cobbles are very rare, but the discovery of similar cobbles in walls and field clearance heaps suggests that other destroyed mounds might have contained them.  When we excavated the massive cairn at Blawearie, we examined every cobble within the mound, and not one was marked. The reason why some mounds were chosen for this ritual is unknown.  One may put forward the idea that the marked cobbles were rather like wreaths at a funeral: that people made them and placed them in the burial mound.    Since the excavation and reinstatement of the mound there have been other finds of small marked cobbles in the area, one of which is at Fowberry Cottage."

Beside this, there were several other tumuli on the hill"" (Tate 1865).  Not any more."
158,10006,"A marked rock on the south edge of the ridge (not the only exposed outcrop here) has some complex motifs, in which the structure of the rock plays a part.  There is also some 19th Century vandalism, where initials and dates have been incised (HCR 1834, for example ).  The rock slopes southwards, and there are two levels.  The ridge that forms the division has a number of erosion channels that have been enhanced as branching wide grooves.    On the upper surface are three cups, a cup and ring that ends in two parallel grooves of the keyhole type, surrounded by an outer penannular, the end of one groove forming a third parallel.  Below this is a pear-shape figure similar to that at Weetwood 5: a cup and duct has a penannular, a second arc, then a third penannular with its grooves extended southwards to meet the end of the duct.  A fourth groove, a penannular, is concentric to it.  The tops of all these penannulars are all squared off.  There is a cup and single ring below this.    To the SW is a curving motif: a cup with a sickle-shaped groove round it, a 'shepherd's crook' above that, and all of it enclosed by an extended, deep L-shaped groove.  This figure lies on the ridge edge, and to the west is a penannular and a cup that has a long, slightly serpentine groove, that reaches one of the main channels after a small gap.  Beside it, lower down the slope, is a large cup with a deep, wide duct, and a ring around it.    The rest of the SW part of the rock has a number of faint cups and a cup and arc, but there is also a long, linear groove, and a cup, ring and duct at the centre of four other rings.  The duct from the central ring is directed towards the central channel that flows from N-S down the rock. Where the channels link, one of the enclosed spaces has an inverted U-shaped groove, faintly picked.    On the eastern part of the rock there are several figures, below the ridge. There is a cup and two rings, lightly linked To a cup surrounded by a D-shaped groove, itself linked to the beginning of the channels.  Below these two is a small cup with a very thin duct, and three irregular rings, the outer one distinctly flattened at the bottom of the slope.    At the foot of the slope, where the rock is relatively smooth, a large, flat-bottomed cup is the centre of three wide rings, with a cup below.  Above this is a small cup and ring and a cup and penannular.      In the south corner where the rock steps down is a cup and duct, a penannular, and an outer oval-shaped groove where the duct ends.  There are other, fainter figures: an arc, a cup, a penannular and an unusual groove outside it that dips at both ends to the penannular, with an arc above it.  The figure is attached to another below it by two grooves that link up with the circle that surrounds a cup and duct projecting further down the rock.    One of the interesting things about this rock is the way in which its natural surface irregularities and its slope have been incorporated into the design."

The motif is very important, as it echoes the design on the standing stone on the Weetwood Cairn kerb.  The pick marks around the cup suggest an intention to make an inner circle.

165,10011,"West of the Weetwood sites, the land dips into a small valley, then rises to a knoll west of Fowberry plantation, north of the public road.  Quarrying here and elsewhere, often in circular patches and rectangular depressions, has taken place.  The outcrop slopes away gently to the north, and is divided by natural cracks in which grass now grows.    A marked rock, part of this outcrop, was covered over until 1984, when M. Van Hoek discovered it.  He recorded some of the motifs.  Since then, sheep have disturbed grass on other motifs, which include a number of cups not recorded here because they are most likely to be natural."

166,10011,"In February 1973 a group of students from Alnwick College of Education, based at the castle, had asked me to take them to see some rock art. Their main course disciplines were different. When we were about to leave the site after looking at the North Plantation rocks when light snow began to fall, Murray Chisholm, a music student, called us back as we went to the minibus. He had noticed a large cup on a rock among dead bracken. This turned out to be the most southerly of a series of rock motifs that covered a whole spine of outcrop rock.    With Lance Strother?s permission we returned, fully equipped, to see if any more rock art was hidden in the dead bracken; this proved to be so on the edges of the outcrop. A mound on the outcrop hinted at something else, so a 26m datum line was established along the length of the outcrop and trenches laid out parallel to it and at right angles. A careful systematic clearance of vegetation revealed piles of cobblestones on top, thinning out to the south. These were drawn and a pattern established where the mound was in the scatter. It had a double kerb and sat on top of the outcrop. The kerb was constructed by laying the two arcs of cobbles and packing the space between them with smaller stones. Cobbles were mostly used, but there was a small arc of pink igneous rock that had presumably been brought to the area originally by ice. A prominent feature of the inner kerb was an upright regular sandstone slab with two cups like eyes looking to the north.    As each cobblestone was cleaned as it emerged, some were found to have motifs pecked into them, mainly with simple cups but others more elaborately. There was sufficient of the mound intact to establish that it was not a field clearance heap, and that the motifs on the cobbles echoed those on the outcrop. The scale of this was unprecedented.    The northern part of the site was more confusing, and a large hollow with an edge of stone at first appeared to be an enclosure. It turned out to be a small quarry. The freestone here splits vertically and horizontally, producing good building blocks, until a floor is reached. This quarry could have removed decorated rock. There were many small slabs and cobbles of the type normally picked up during field clearance that may have been thrown to one side so the quarrymen could get at the good rock surface. They were in lines immediately at the western edge of the working. It is possible that other cairns were demolished in this clearing process. There was less disturbance to the south, though there had been trees there. The whole area is surrounded by magnificent old beech trees, and the planting of these would have caused disturbance. To the east is a large circular hollow that we investigated; it proved to be another of these quarries also seen on Weetwood Moor. The logic seemed to be to locate a good edge of freestone, then exploit it forward and sideways. It is possible to mistake such hollows as settlement sites; it is also possible to mistake limited rectangular stone extraction for a cist.    A profile cross-section of the site shows that there was a very thin layer of sand above the outcrop beneath the cobbles of the mound; in this was the only artefact: a sealed in worked flint that could be used as a scraper of knife and belong to the Neolithic-early Bronze Age period. There was no evidence of any time gap between the mound and the marking of the outcrop, and the thin sand was sterile. The stones of the mound and other scattered stones were from 10-40 cm long, mostly sandstone, with the odd volcanic erratic.     The most important feature of this site is the distribution of marked cobbles. Not only did they form part of the mound, but four kerbstones were cup marked and have been left buried in situ. The rest have been removed to the Museum of Antiquities except for Fowberry Excavation site - Cairn n, which is at Berwick Museum, and Fowberry Excavation site - Cairn r , which could not be relocated during the project.    The decoration on the removed cobbles  varies from simple cups to a complex cup-penannular-radiate design. This complex design was on a cobble found south of the projected south edge of the outer kerb ? unless the mound was longer along its north-south axis, which we don?t know because there was only a light scatter of stone there and more possibility that the outcrop had been cleared of any covering stone.

The GPS reference given was taken from above the place where the panel is believed to lie. The panel is part of a kerbed cairn lying on top of outcropping bedrock, excavated by Beckensall in 1973. The cairn had a double kerb made of cobbles, some of which were marked in a similar fashion to the outcrop. A worked flint scraper or knife was the only artefact recovered.  Beckensall Archive records a cup and two penannulars."
169,10006,"At the south end it has several motifs that include a cup and groove with three penannulars, two motifs with cups and two penannulars, with traces of a groove away from the cups. A small cup is surrounded by a ring from which a long thin groove leads down the rock.     There are two figures that have cup and groove with one penannular. Three have a cup and penannular; one has a cup and two penannulars. There is a cup and ring. There are random cups over the surface, but there is also a line of six. A large, possibly natural cup lies at the end, and a cup and small arc.    The most interesting feature, however, is where a rectangular piece of outcrop has been removed from the surface, possibly with cup and ring designs. The space left by this removal, a flat base, has been pecked with a pristine cup that has a bending groove leading from it down the stepped rock into the earth, with concentric angular grooves, square with slightly rounded corners around the cup. Every pick mark is visible, as though it had been made yesterday.  What is so important is that this shows that the pecking of the upper and lower surfaces represents a possible difference in time scale, one eroded and the other fresh.    Had a slab been removed from the top surface? For what purpose? A cist? We don?t know. It was certainly removed for some purpose in prehistoric times when rock art was in use in both periods. The space created was reused, and resanctified, if this art form had a religious significance.  When considering the time gap it must be remembered that had the lower space been packed at once, this would have afforded it the protection not available to the upper exposed surface.    This removal of rock went on in more recent times."

172,10011,"In February 1973 a group of students from Alnwick College of Education, based at the castle, had asked me to take them to see some rock art. Their main course disciplines were different. When we were about to leave the site after looking at the North Plantation rocks when light snow began to fall, Murray Chisholm, a music student, called us back as we went to the minibus. He had noticed a large cup on a rock among dead bracken. This turned out to be the most southerly of a series of rock motifs that covered a whole spine of outcrop rock.    With Lance Strother?s permission we returned, fully equipped, to see if any more rock art was hidden in the dead bracken; this proved to be so on the edges of the outcrop. A mound on the outcrop hinted at something else, so a 26m datum line was established along the length of the outcrop and trenches laid out parallel to it and at right angles. A careful systematic clearance of vegetation revealed piles of cobblestones on top, thinning out to the south. These were drawn and a pattern established where the mound was in the scatter. It had a double kerb and sat on top of the outcrop. The kerb was constructed by laying the two arcs of cobbles and packing the space between them with smaller stones. Cobbles were mostly used, but there was a small arc of pink igneous rock that had presumably been brought to the area originally by ice. A prominent feature of the inner kerb was an upright regular sandstone slab with two cups like eyes looking to the north.    As each cobblestone was cleaned as it emerged, some were found to have motifs pecked into them, mainly with simple cups but others more elaborately. There was sufficient of the mound intact to establish that it was not a field clearance heap, and that the motifs on the cobbles echoed those on the outcrop. The scale of this was unprecedented.    The northern part of the site was more confusing, and a large hollow with an edge of stone at first appeared to be an enclosure. It turned out to be a small quarry. The freestone here splits vertically and horizontally, producing good building blocks, until a floor is reached. This quarry could have removed decorated rock. There were many small slabs and cobbles of the type normally picked up during field clearance that may have been thrown to one side so the quarrymen could get at the good rock surface. They were in lines immediately at the western edge of the working. It is possible that other cairns were demolished in this clearing process. There was less disturbance to the south, though there had been trees there. The whole area is surrounded by magnificent old beech trees, and the planting of these would have caused disturbance. To the east is a large circular hollow that we investigated; it proved to be another of these quarries also seen on Weetwood Moor. The logic seemed to be to locate a good edge of freestone, then exploit it forward and sideways. It is possible to mistake such hollows as settlement sites; it is also possible to mistake limited rectangular stone extraction for a cist.    A profile cross-section of the site shows that there was a very thin layer of sand above the outcrop beneath the cobbles of the mound; in this was the only artefact: a sealed in worked flint that could be used as a scraper of knife and belong to the Neolithic-early Bronze Age period. There was no evidence of any time gap between the mound and the marking of the outcrop, and the thin sand was sterile. The stones of the mound and other scattered stones were from 10-40 cm long, mostly sandstone, with the odd volcanic erratic.     The most important feature of this site is the distribution of marked cobbles. Not only did they form part of the mound, but four kerbstones were cup marked and have been left buried in situ. The rest have been removed to the Museum of Antiquities except for Fowberry Excavation site - Cairn n, which is at Berwick Museum, and Fowberry Excavation site - Cairn r , which could not be relocated during the project.    The decoration on the removed cobbles  varies from simple cups to a complex cup-penannular-radiate design. This complex design was on a cobble found south of the projected south edge of the outer kerb ? unless the mound was longer along its north-south axis, which we don?t know because there was only a light scatter of stone there and more possibility that the outcrop had been cleared of any covering stone.

A flat-edged tongue to the left has only faint cups and arcs, but the rock then produces a triangular appendage that has been completely filled in with a cup and diametric groove at the centre of three deep penannulars. The theme of penannulars and cups centres on the upper slope of the east edge; from the cups at their centres are grooves that lead down towards the edge. Two of these grooves are used as parallel sides of a rectangle, one side of which is the edge of the rock; it contains seven cups, some with grooves leading out. It is a very ?busy? decoration, with some unattached cups included. To the left is an interesting variation on a theme, where an external arc embraces a cup and a cup and groove, echoing the direction of the external arc. A groove shoots out laterally to the left to a cup, over a penannular and cup and groove, above which are two linear grooves. The whole design flows in an arc laterally and down the rock, with a sense of integration and fluidity. It ends with a cup and two rings, an arc, and a faint cup and ring below which are three large cups. A cluster of cups at the top of the rock focuses on a natural fault in the rock that looks animal-like."

There are a few scattered outcrops  on both sides of this valley, with the carved panels all on the southeastern-facing slope.    The panels have a wide view along and across the valley and lake, as well as some of the surrounding area. Beyond the River Till other higher portions of the Fell Sandstone Group form ring from north to south, via the east. The Cheviot Hills can be seen westwards.  The highest portions of the Weetwood Moor area can also be seen to the northeast.    There are no immediate monuments associated with the rock art panels here, though cairns and possible standing stones have been recorded nearby.  Neither are there any cairnfields.  Quarrying of some of the outcrops is evidenced by sheer rock edges, and there are agricultural improvements of the flatter parts of the area. These activities are thought to be Post Medieval and Modern in date, and may have destroyed further rock art panels and prehistoric monuments in this area."

180,1,"Main carving is located on the almost flat top of the boulder.  Motifs include a large, flat bottomed cup with almost vertical sides (eroded on north side), a second, shallower cup with two arcs and possible remains of a ring. A large, shallow concave cup or basin is present to the north."
181,10006,"This is a complex outcrop slab; here we can see superimposition without being able to determine the length of time lapse. To the right is a cup at the centre of four concentric arcs which may have continued as rings had not two deep spaced cups been pecked on, joined by a thick curved groove at the bottom and a thinner straight groove connecting the tops of the cups. It was referred to as the ?Ship rock? during the dig. At the bottom edge is a cup and ring with a near-oval groove attached. Above that is a small cup and ring with some small cups. Two more cups, one with a little groove complete the design on the right hand side before a natural line in the rock is reached. The left-hand side has again a cup at the centre of four arcs. The groove from the cup is joined to the outer arc of a motif centred on a cup and groove with a large cup flanking it. Two other large cups and a smaller one complete the decoration at the left edge."
181,10011,"In February 1973 a group of students from Alnwick College of Education, based at the castle, had asked me to take them to see some rock art. Their main course disciplines were different. When we were about to leave the site after looking at the North Plantation rocks when light snow began to fall, Murray Chisholm, a music student, called us back as we went to the minibus. He had noticed a large cup on a rock among dead bracken. This turned out to be the most southerly of a series of rock motifs that covered a whole spine of outcrop rock.    With Lance Strother?s permission we returned, fully equipped, to see if any more rock art was hidden in the dead bracken; this proved to be so on the edges of the outcrop. A mound on the outcrop hinted at something else, so a 26m datum line was established along the length of the outcrop and trenches laid out parallel to it and at right angles. A careful systematic clearance of vegetation revealed piles of cobblestones on top, thinning out to the south. These were drawn and a pattern established where the mound was in the scatter. It had a double kerb and sat on top of the outcrop. The kerb was constructed by laying the two arcs of cobbles and packing the space between them with smaller stones. Cobbles were mostly used, but there was a small arc of pink igneous rock that had presumably been brought to the area originally by ice. A prominent feature of the inner kerb was an upright regular sandstone slab with two cups like eyes looking to the north.    As each cobblestone was cleaned as it emerged, some were found to have motifs pecked into them, mainly with simple cups but others more elaborately. There was sufficient of the mound intact to establish that it was not a field clearance heap, and that the motifs on the cobbles echoed those on the outcrop. The scale of this was unprecedented.    The northern part of the site was more confusing, and a large hollow with an edge of stone at first appeared to be an enclosure. It turned out to be a small quarry. The freestone here splits vertically and horizontally, producing good building blocks, until a floor is reached. This quarry could have removed decorated rock. There were many small slabs and cobbles of the type normally picked up during field clearance that may have been thrown to one side so the quarrymen could get at the good rock surface. They were in lines immediately at the western edge of the working. It is possible that other cairns were demolished in this clearing process. There was less disturbance to the south, though there had been trees there. The whole area is surrounded by magnificent old beech trees, and the planting of these would have caused disturbance. To the east is a large circular hollow that we investigated; it proved to be another of these quarries also seen on Weetwood Moor. The logic seemed to be to locate a good edge of freestone, then exploit it forward and sideways. It is possible to mistake such hollows as settlement sites; it is also possible to mistake limited rectangular stone extraction for a cist.    A profile cross-section of the site shows that there was a very thin layer of sand above the outcrop beneath the cobbles of the mound; in this was the only artefact: a sealed in worked flint that could be used as a scraper of knife and belong to the Neolithic-early Bronze Age period. There was no evidence of any time gap between the mound and the marking of the outcrop, and the thin sand was sterile. The stones of the mound and other scattered stones were from 10-40 cm long, mostly sandstone, with the odd volcanic erratic.     The most important feature of this site is the distribution of marked cobbles. Not only did they form part of the mound, but four kerbstones were cup marked and have been left buried in situ. The rest have been removed to the Museum of Antiquities except for Fowberry Excavation site - Cairn n, which is at Berwick Museum, and Fowberry Excavation site - Cairn r , which could not be relocated during the project.    The decoration on the removed cobbles  varies from simple cups to a complex cup-penannular-radiate design. This complex design was on a cobble found south of the projected south edge of the outer kerb ? unless the mound was longer along its north-south axis, which we don?t know because there was only a light scatter of stone there and more possibility that the outcrop had been cleared of any covering stone. For anyone trying to peck a cup into a cobble, the danger is that the rock will split with the force of the blow. It takes skill."

Surface of the area is hummocky with many loose stones which have become overgrown with turf/heather/bracken. There are many paths/tracks criss-crossing the moor and circular hollows around 5-7 m diameter which may be remnants of sheepfolds or related to quarrying.

The urn was about 15 inches in diameter, and had some ashes in it, but was not enclosed in a cist. The spot was called Jacob?s Hill.?    Maclaughlan also quotes an Alnwick MSS which says: ?The herd?s house at Trickley stands without the camp (3/4 mile south west of the above cist) on the western side, and some sepulchral urns have been digged up near the north west corner of his cottage, as well as upon other parts of his farm.?"

Further, a distinctive standing stone with fluted weathering marks standing only 2 m  from the carved stone, and identified during the survey could not be recalled by Stan Beckensall.    For recording purposes, it has been assumed that the carving found is a new discovery and has been designated Amerside Law 4 (ERA 771).

Scattered over the rock are apparently random cups, but a group with rings clusters around the largest motif: two single cups each with a ring, a cup and a groove with a ring, a cup and a groove with a penannular and a cup and arc.

The panels have a wide view along and across the valley and lake, as well as some of the surrounding area. Beyond the River Till other higher portions of the Fell Sandstone Group form ring from north to south, via the east. The Cheviot Hills can be seen westwards.  The highest portions of the Weetwood Moor area can also be seen to the northeast.    There are no immediate monuments associated with the rock art panels here, though cairns and possible standing stones have been recorded nearby.  Neither are there any cairnfields.  Quarrying of some of the outcrops is evidenced by sheer rock edges, and there are agricultural improvements of the flatter parts of the area.

202,10006,"This rock is a good example of how basic symbols used all over the county can be arranged in such a way that an individual result is produced. The largest figure has a central cup from which two grooves of different thicknesses lead down and loop together, enclosing a row of three cups. There may have been three other cups already before the design was made which could have been incorporated into the rest, which is three widely spaced concentric rings around a central cup. A curved groove leads from the outer circle, flanked by two cups.     To the right is a faint cup at the centre of two well-spaced concentric rings with a long groove branching to the right from the outer one. A large cup through which the narrow inner circle passes may have preceded the final decoration, and have been incorporated into it. To the left, the top figure is a rectangle with slightly rounded corners that encloses six cups, four of which lie at the centre of a circle from which edge run two parallel grooves that end in a cup and ring. A faint angular groove joins the outer circle from the right.    To the left of this motif is a large cup at the centre of two concentric rings, a groove leading out from the inner circle and flanked by a cup. This figure is joined to the top one by a long, straight, thin groove.     Below is a cup and ring with a groove from the outer ring that joins an arc framing a cup and ring. Another motif joins on below: a cup at the centre of a pear-shaped penannular with the central cup linked to it. The bottom motif is a cup at the centre of two well-spaced concentric rings; from the outer ring a thin groove leads to a small cup. A large cup ends the design.    The west end has an angular ring concentric to an angular ring around a cup, with a faint ring between the two. A thin groove leads left out of the cup. Above the motif are two cups and rings; below are two others that touch, and a groove leads down the rock from the outside of the ring.    The obvious parallel for the rectangular grooves with linked cups and the heart-shaped/oval groove with linked cups is Dod Law Main Rock. The almost square-shaped enclosures elsewhere are echoed at Chatton Park Hill and Buttony, so one may ask if there was a contact between the people who made them."

202,10011,"The story of how I (Stan Beckensall) encountered this site is unusual. I was invited to talk to members of the Chatton Leek Club in the village hall about the local area, so I took slides and projector, to find the hall packed with people of all ages. It was quite an occasion for all of us. Among the audience was Jim Robson, who at that time did his shepherding on horseback. He showed me photographs of rock art that I had not seen before and offered to take me to see it. I did so; TV became involved once they heard of the discovery, and we had this picture of Jim alighting at the rocks from his horse and of me talking about them on the spot.    In 1982 the area was ploughed and trees planted, but these rocks were fortunately avoided (at least one of the workers knew the value of rock art). By that time the site was well known and reported.    The site has always been difficult of access, not only because it is private. Now it may not be worth a visit, as the patterns on the rocks are almost totally obscured, even if you know where to look for them."

To the north east, a sub-rectangular groove encloses a cup and ring with an eroded looped groove running out to the west. Other motifs to the north, include two small cups with rings, a cup with two arcs, a cup with one arc and a further arc, all probably complete rings originally. Another example of a circular groove enclosing multiple cups and a ring can be seen north west of the sub-rectangular motif. Several other cups, some deep are scattered about the stones surface.    A number of motifs visible on 1981 photographs cannot now be made out, presumably due to the corrosive effect of larch needle decay.    A number of motifs are similar in style to those carved on Chattonpark Hill 1500 meters north."

206,10006,"The repertoire here includes a very unusual grid pattern. This has been pecked out by making a series of parallel grooves that divide a square into twenty small squares. A serpentine groove runs from one corner of the square to a beautifully executed symmetrical cup, on either side of which are two antithetical motifs; one is a clearly pecked cup with a groove running from it through a ring. The other has two concentric rings that have left a space at the centre instead of a cup, which is unusual for this area. Included in this group are two other cups.    The rest of this exposed sheet has a cup surrounded by an arc and an oval ring, connected by a groove to another cup that runs diametrically through a cup at the centre of a ring. Attached to the latter motif is a cup and two ovoids that may have preceded it. Three small ringed cups stretch in a line beside the larger figure, with fourth similar motif a little distance away. This line leads to a larger cup and ring, which acts as the point of a triangle, the next side of which is an irregular line of cup at the centre of two rings with an attached large cup, a faint motif of two cups that are part of a ring, with a concentric ring outside. There are some very small cups and a line of three ringed cups. Above the latter are a cup and ring which is touched by a ring around a cup from which a groove runs, flanked by two concentric arcs. Two other cups lie at the outcrop edge.    Finally, the most northerly motif is a cup with a diametric groove that runs through two concentric rings."

375,2,"This extensive area of moorland, rough grazing and golf course is a prominent landscape feature of north Northumberland.  The area rises from undulating eastern slopes above West Horton to a plateau height of Dod Law, above steep scarp edges which in places, on the south and west, comprises blocky crags.  The main moor area is broadly divided into two by a stream running south to north.  This is a typical Fell Sandstone Group terrace with western crags and eastern dip-slope, draining in all directions, through established courses at the fringes, giving the appearance of an island of substantially higher ground.  Gled Law issues from the flanks of Doddington Moor.     From the plateau edges wide views can be obtained in a variety of directions,  to the distant Cheviot Hills and other Fell Sandstone Group areas, over the Till, Hetton Burn, Doddington Dene and other valleys. These views include many other rock art areas.    There is an extensive series of rock art panels across the area (in some cases called Dod Law), with a number of contemporary monuments.  Since the creation of the rock art, modifications to the landscape have taken place across the whole area, so the panels are a mixture of in situ and moved panels.      No Mesolithic presence has been recorded on this moor.  Monuments contemporary with the rock art carvings have been recorded from various locations: a stone circle, roughly central to the area and a pair of stones, possibly a stone setting, have been recorded,   The dating for both monuments is unconfirmed, their relationships with each other and with the  rock art are unknown. Several Bronze Age barrows and cairns were recorded in the 19th century, some definitively funerary monuments, others possibly clearance cairns. Bronze Age, Iron Age and Romano-British settlements, enclosures and hillforts have been recorded across the area.  It is unknown whether or not the rock art panels would have been visible in these periods but some panels are only metres away from these sites.      Recent field clearance is partially responsible for the movement and relocation of some rock art panels; many small clearance cairns have been noted, and where ploughed, finds of stone artefacts are recorded.  Widespread Medieval and Post Medieval clearance at the scarp edges that may have also destroyed rock art panels."

376,10006,"The outcrop has two sets of motifs on the same continuous smooth sloping face.  The first group is six cups, but the second has five concentric rings centred on a vertical crack that was later used to insert wedges for quarrying the rock.  One wedge mark has obscured the central cup, but quarrying was abandoned before more damage was done.  The concentric rings are faint, and not easy to see, and the rings are somewhat angular."

376,10011,"The Hare Law Crags 1-7 area has been extensively quarried and mined, but is now pasture and used for timber plantations, so much archaeology may have been removed or buried. The rock art has survived on an elongated outcrop ridge aligned roughly SE-NW, partly tree-covered, highest at its SE end. The view from the ridge is widest and furthest towards Dod Law, an area of major rock art that rises from a valley between it and the Hare Law land, although the view of the Doddington Dean valley is obscured by land that rises to 130m. The view to the W is limited by the ridge of Doddington North Moor.  To the E lies the Devil's Causeway, a major Roman road, but the view from the marked rocks to the east is blocked by a slight rise in the outcrop ridge.  To the N the fields rise gently, and include the site of the English camp at Barmoor before the Battle of Flodden in 1513.  To the NW is Roughting Linn, and to the NE the sea is reached via some undulating ground.  This N-NE landscape is extensive, and today is mainly pasture.    Tate (1865) tells us, ""At intervals along the range, Mr. Charles Rea of Doddington discovered several inscriptions which had been covered over by turf.

The rock art has survived on an elongated outcrop ridge aligned roughly SE-NW, partly tree-covered, highest at its SE end. The view from the ridge is widest and furthest towards Dod Law, an area of major rock art that rises from a valley between it and the Hare Law land, although the view of the Doddington Dean valley is obscured by land that rises to 130m. The view to the W is limited by the ridge of Doddington North Moor.  To the E lies the Devil's Causeway, a major Roman road, but the view from the marked rocks to the east is blocked by a slight rise in the outcrop ridge.  To the N the fields rise gently, and include the site of the English camp at Barmoor before the Battle of Flodden in 1513.  To the NW is Roughting Linn, and to the NE the sea is reached via some undulating ground.  This N-NE landscape is extensive, and today is mainly pasture.    Tate (1865) tells us, ""At intervals along the range, Mr. Charles Rea of Doddington discovered several inscriptions which had been covered over by turf.  There are five groups of these inscriptions, and thirteen figures are traceable; all are of the common types; and one is somewhat angular in the lower part of the circles.""  His drawings of the motifs do not have much resemblance to what we see today, and he does not mention the impact of quarrying."

379,2,"This series of rock art panels runs southeast to northwest along a ridge, with its highest part at the southeast.  The highest portion of the crag line (possibly unaltered) is at the southeast end in a plantation that might suggest the crag?s initial appearance. This is a locally prominent ridge, especially from the west, with wide views all around over rolling country to distant higher Fell Sandstone Group, Cheviot and Kyloe Hills.  No other rock art areas appear to be visible.    The crag has been quarried along much of the visible length, resulting in a sheer face of moderate height.  It is unknown when the quarrying took place or how the crags originally appeared.  The quarrying activity appears as straight edges, with sheer faces and stepped rock areas.  A number of wedge marks can be seen in some of the rock art panels.      There are no associated monuments contemporary with the rock carvings.  There has been widespread agricultural improvement of the surrounding ground, with no records made of sites or finds.  Several loose stone scatters are noted in the nearby field edges as modern clearance cairns."

The position of the rock art is very unusual, although in other parts of north Britain some decorated rocks mark the sites of streams and springs. I (Stan Beckensall) recorded this isolated example in 1981.    The rock is naturally ridged along its axis."

381,2,"This is a promontory of the Fell Sandstone Group extending westwards from the main Old Bewick-Kyloe ridge.  The area rises steeply from the north, south and west, with ploughed lower flanks, and a plantation making it a prominent, recognisable, location.  The western side is craggy, with other slopes steep, grass- and bracken-covered.  The eastern slopes gently undulate towards the main ridge.  No features contemporary with the creation of the rock art panels can be identified as a number of post-prehistoric modifications have taken place.    Excellent views can be obtained from the promontory edges towards the distant Cheviot Hills to the west, over lower-lying  Weetwood and Fowberry areas.  Other rock art areas visible are Doddington/Dod Law and Horton Moors, Hetton Burn, Amerside Law, and on the main ridge from Bowdon Doors to Old Bewick, and distant Titlington and Simonside areas. Distant views can be obtained along the Hetton Burn and Till Valleys.    Similar locations have yielded flint artefacts, usually at crag-lines.  Here, though, the ?crags? are the result of quarrying, possibly destroying such evidence if present.  Neolithic axe-heads have been recorded from nearby, suggesting some tree clearance.  There are no obvious Bronze Age monuments or finds recorded.  The gentle slopes between the hillfort and ridge have been extensively ploughed and cleared of smaller stones in the Post Medieval period, which would have destroyed traces of any Bronze Age monuments. The Iron Age hillfort is located at the highest point of the area, with a possible Iron Age-Romano-British settlement recorded on the ridge opposite.  In addition to the Post Medieval ploughing, quarrying has taken place across the area, particularly on the western scarp and southeast of the hillfort."

382,2,"This area extends from the flanks of Doddington Moor/Dod Law as moorland, arable and pasture farmland and plantations.  It is largely flat, ending with steep western and southern slopes down to the Till.  It is based on a low Fell Sandstone Group terrace, which occasionally outcrops in the western slopes.  There are craggy portions across the area with steep, localized, slopes.  Slopes to the east are generally gentler, extending eastwards to Buttony.    From the plateau edges wide views can be obtained in a variety of directions to the distant Cheviot Hills and other Fell Sandstone Group areas, and over and along the Till valley.  This includes some rock art areas, such as the north of Weetwood Moor and the main Chatton Park-Old Bewick ridge.  The crags and rising ground of Doddington Moor/Dod Law prevent an all-round view of distant areas.    The gentle slopes have allowed Post Medieval ploughing of the ground to be undertaken with disturbance and destruction of archaeological monuments.  A few monuments contemporary with the rock art panels of the Neolithic/Early Bronze Age have been recorded.  These include Cuddie?s Cave rock shelter on the western flanks of Gled Law from which rock art has been recorded, as well as barrows and cairns with grave goods and others which are possibly related to agricultural clearance.  These were discovered in the 19th century, as ploughing started on the flatter portions of the area.    The steep slopes have escaped the ploughing and a number of monuments have been recorded.  These enclosures and settlements are thought to date from the Bronze Age onwards, or the later prehistoric periods, remaining as earthworks.  Ridge and furrow also survives in places with Post Medieval field banks."

392,2,"Boulder within cairn about 3 m W of Weetwood Moor North a.  Other loose rocks around.    This area is a low Fell Sandstone Group block that rises from east to west.  Rock art panels are found along a slightly elevated ridge, rising generally with the trend, but with slight slopes to the north and south.  Much bedrock is exposed on the ridge top, with low natural and, where quarried, higher crags along the flanks.  The area is mainly rough grazing and moorland, bounded by stonewalls and fences, separated from improved and cleared grasslands for stock and gamebird plantations.    Wide views can be obtained from the rock art locations.  However, in places the adjacent rising ground of the higher Whitsun Bank and Coldmartin areas prevents distant views.  The Cheviot and Fell Sandstone Hills distantly ring the site to the west, north and east with other rock art areas visible, such as Doddington Moor/Dod Law, Gled Law, Buttony and Horton areas, as well as the main Fell Sandstone Group arc.  The more elevated portions of this area overlook the Milfield Basin and River Till lowland areas.    Other prehistoric monuments in the area includes two funerary cairns. One of these, Weetwood Cairn, on the southern flanks of the ridge incorporates further panels, though it is not clear whether this was constructed contemporary with the creation of the rock art.  The other cairn is in the west moorland area.  A pair of stones, previously thought standing stones, have been discounted in previous reconnaissance of the area.  There are no later prehistoric monuments in the immediate area, though a series of settlements is known nearby.    Post Medieval activity has, however, taken place.  Much evidence of quarrying is present with many ?steps?, and sheer and sharp edges of remaining rock at the east of the ridge.  A stonewalled enclosure has been recorded in the western part of the area, continuing into the adjacent plantation.  These constructions, together with the adjacent stonewalls, and clearance of the lower slopes and surrounding fields, may have destrroyed other prehistoric monuments and rock art panels.  A number of modern walker?s cairns are located beside some of the rock art panels."

Some grooves visible but possible later plough damage."
426,10006,"This elongated boulder is further proof of the ingenuity of the people who used a limited symbolism to produce unique designs.     The rock, from N to S, is on two levels; the south end ten cups of different sizes, all shallow, and two of them faintly linked with a curved groove. One has faint traces of an arc. S of this at a lower level is a unique design of a large cup surrounded by an angular ring and fainter outer ring from which six grooves drop down to the edge of the rock. A seventh groove runs between two of these grooves and parallel to them, not starting at a ring. The fifth and sixth grooves from the south end in the same cup, with an additional short groove linking them. The seventh groove bends away from the ring, straightens out and ends in a cup that is shared with a groove running from a single cup. The latter groove touches the ring around a cup, from which a groove runs down the rock to a large cup above a fainter cup and ring. The next motif is linked on either side by single cups; a large cup is at the centre of three concentric rings, the outer one unfinished. From the inner ring a groove runs through to a large cup, just before the edge of the rock is reached. Above it at the opposite edge is a large cup and penannular. A large cup at the centre of a ring is the source of a groove that runs down the rock to meet a ring around another cup. At the northern end is a large cup and ring with a groove running from the ring to a small cup. Between it and the other motifs is a large cup with a faint trace of a ring, a small cup and a faint oblique groove.    What is so fascinating about this rock is the way in which the design has taken into account the shape of the rock itself: the motifs are not in a straight line but run with the slight bulge of the western edge."

426,1,"No location is given for this panel in the Beckensall Archive but it was relocated during the NADRAP survey.

The upper, southernmost layer has five cups, two of which are connected by a groove. The lower, northernmost layer has the majority of motifs and is finely carved. There are five cups with single rings and two cups with three rings, the easternmost of which has seven parallel grooves running down the rock to south west, two ending in single cups. One of these cups is also connected by a groove to another single cup. A cup with three rings in the centre of the panel is connected by a groove to another cup down slope and a fine groove to its north connects an upper cup and a lower cup with a single fine ring. There is a cup with a single or possibly a double ring near the top edge in the middle of the panel and on the northernmost, top edge, a cup with prominent ring with a faint groove, adjacent to another cup with a faint ring which intersects the other.

A large cup has a serpentine groove running to the north east, not quite reaching the edge of the rock, and a fainter groove runs from the same groove westward. The western edge of the boulder or outcrop is straight; at its south end is a cup, and some grooves that seem random, although aiming at the edge of the rock. Between them and the grooved enclosure is a cup, two smaller joined cups and a straight groove running to the south edge of the rock. The northern part of the west edge has a large well-made cup, four small cups and two faint large ones. The north end of the rock is filled with three large cups surrounded by single rings and a detached cup. Two of the rings are linked by two faint grooves. The most northerly ring has a groove running out it, made by joining four cups in an arc. The ring of the southerly motif is extended by an added groove that ends in a small cup.

The motifs fit the whole rock surface, beginning at the top (NE) with 21 cups of varied sizes, a cup and ring from which a curved groove runs the width of the rock, and three parallel grooves down the rock, one from the ring, one from a cup, and the other from a groove. The northerly long groove connects with a cup and ring and a cup below it, drawing it to the edge of the rock. The second runs from cup to cup. The third runs from groove to crack. At the bottom of this rock, between the crack and edge, is a cup and ring.   The south east part respects the natural groove in its design: The largest cup begins a groove through a cup to reach the crack; this groove is crosses by a groove joining two small cups, making a cross. There are nine other cups."

473,10006,"Description of Hunterheugh 1 before the excavation.    1a: an outstanding outcrop, the most northerly part, has a large cluster of cups at its west end, some paired. Above them fitting into the natural strike of the rock are cups, one with two rings and three with one ring. There is a countersunk cup, some midget cups and a cup and penannular is linked by a natural groove to another.    1b: slopes to the south; a cluster of nine cups occupies the top end, then three cups of decreasing size are linked to form a groove that meets the outer ring of a penannular and concentric ring around a cup from which the flow continues with a groove from the cup to meet an unfinished cup and penannular. The groove continues from this cup to the edge of the rock. There are three large cups and six tiny ones to the west.    1c: a natural groove in the rock is surrounded by many cups of different sizes, one of which has a faint ring.    1d: is a very unusual marked surface on outcrop that is placed within the kerb of a greatly disturbed cairn. In the latter, a serpentine groove presumably continues to run under the cairn kerb although this has not been excavated or disturbed. The groove bends into itself around a cup. Below this is an oval with a small cup inside, and three small cups. At the centre of the outcrop is a ?keyhole? entrance to the cupped centre of a figure made up of three concentric rings with an outer arc ending in a very large cup that is partly natural. The outer arc is linked to the keyhole groove by a straight groove. This motif is rare, as is the technique of linking penannulars so that they are closed. The pick marks are fresh. To the south are cups with faint rings."
473,10008,Hunterheugh 1 is a large outcrop of rock on the edge of sandstone crag overlooking the Titlington Burn.
473,10011,"Hunterheugh 1 was excavated by Clive Waddington together with Aron Mazel and Ben Johnson in March and April 2004. Clive Waddington has published a [http://rockart.ncl.ac.uk/interactive/documents/outreach/Hunterheugh_BAarticle.pdf,short report] on the excavation in British Archaeology  (2004, vol 78), and together with Aron Mazel and Ben Johnson (2005, in press) has prepared a detailed report on the excavation that will be published in Archaeologia Aeliana.     Following a visit to Hunterheugh 1 after the excavation, Stan Beckensall prepared a short report on his observations. This report is presented below.     PREHISTORIC ROCK ART AT HUNTERHEUGH CRAGS    Stan Beckensall (April 2004)    1. Background exploration.    The first reference to rock markings at Hunterheugh is in the Northumberland County History, which says, ?There are indications of plain cups on the wide expanse of rocks near the top of the hill, but in the absence of rings or ducts there remains an element of doubt about them.? No precise location was given, and as the outcrop is extensive, this could refer to the excavated site or to an outcrop with cup marks to the NW by the public footpath to Eglingham.    Tim Gates? discovery during the survey for a gas pipeline survey of decorated rock among cairns to the north of the excavated site was unpublished. Paul Frodsham showed me a slide of this site, which led to my investigation, recording and publication of rock art on that northern hill site. Another site that I discovered has now been excavated. Only those parts protruding from stone and vegetation were drawn: the rest was left for excavation. My recording (Beckensall, 1995) included the Gates? discovery. New discoveries by the public footpath to the NW appeared in Beckensall (2001), but the whole rocks were not drawn ? only those parts with motifs. This followed some very significant discoveries on Beanley Moor to the north that have been recorded for the Archive.    The potential of the Hunterheugh 1 site for significant new information lay in its being decorated outcrop on which a cairn was built. This links it with sites such as Lordenshaw, Fowberry, The Ringses and Dod Law, where the same phenomenon occurs (Beckensall 2001). The relationship between decorated outcrop and a cairn is best seen at Fowberry, where a double kerbed cairn with cup-marked kerbs and more elaborate cup and ring marked cobbles was excavated on top of a long decorated outcrop. There was no sign of a burial there, and the only diagnostic find was a flint scraper sealed under the edge of the cairn stones. Hunterheugh 1 provided an opportunity for more information on the relationship between cairns and outcrop. There have been many marked stones found in cairnfields recently, some embedded in cairn structures, throughout Northumberland.    2. The making of motifs    Much of the decorated rock surfaces had been recorded before the excavation, but new panels and motifs emerged.    There are two distinct features: motifs that appear faint and warn by weathering, and pristine motifs that show clearly how they were made, with tool marks visible. Such features appear at all rock art sites.  The ?faintness? of a motif may be the result of erosion; ridges and grooves become smoothed by water action as a result of long exposure. For how long, we do not know. The other reason is that the motifs were pecked on only lightly ? tentative, unfinished sometimes.    The most important example in Northumberland of both erosion and fresh pecking is at North Plantation, Fowberry, where decorated outcrop incorporated into an Iron Age (?) enclosure has had a slab of its surface removed and a freshly-pecked motif made on the exposed base (Beckensall 2001). It has been suggested that such a removed slab might have been used as a cist slab or as a kerb.    ?Fresh? motifs exhibit all the stages of their making; it is possible to deduce what kinds of tools were used. At Hunterheugh 1, as well as at other sites, the tool appears to be either a punch like a blunt nail or a wider chisel-shaped edge. In some cases both types have been used on the same motif, or by one tool that could do both. As these presumably belong to a pre-metal age, we assume the tool to be made of a rock harder than the Fell Sandstone sheets of outcrop, such as whinstone, and to have been impacted with a mallet or used as a hand tool with a pad to protect the palm. There have been recent experiments to produce such effects. What is strange is that no tool has been found on a site, with the possible exception of Dod Law (Beckensall 2001), although this has an uncertain context.    Motifs were not added to the rock without consideration of the form of the rock itself, and often the natural configuration would determine the arrangements of the motifs. The most satisfying designs (to the modern eye) are those that use to the full the surface irregularities and slopes. Slope is particularly important, as grooves running from cups follow the rock downwards, and the spacing of motifs may take into account the natural divisions formed by cracks.    At Hunterheugh 1 there are two kinds of surface: a fairly continuous smooth, sloping area with few natural irregularities, and rather lumpy surfaces. There are also hollows used to counter-sink motifs    3. Description of the motifs    The most complex motifs are those to the east on a step in the rock, and they face east. No new ones other than cups and a cup and ring were found further east, and they were on a step down, part of the same section of outcrop. The cairn lay on the continuation of the north complex motif, and there were a few other minor cups and cups and rings to the immediate west. All these motifs are ?fresh?.    The two major motifs are distinctly different, although clearly arranged in the same direction, facing east in a slight flat hollow that today drains rain water from them. The southerly design has clear chisel-like and punched tool marks. At the centre is a cup towards which a radial groove runs but does not reach beyond the inner ring. The cup is the centre of two penannulars which are looped at their ends. A very thin groove from the cup reaches a bar running from one end of the inner penannular to the other, preventing the opening to the cup from being a complete ?keyhole? construction. The inner groove on the right runs further down the rock, and opposite to it some tooling has been placed to allow water to drain out of the motifs, left. An extra concentric outer arc was not meant to continue around the whole figure; it stops at a crudely-cut basin in which the chisel tool marks have cut into layered sedimentary rock. Outside this, left, are two cups, and above is a group of three. On the slightly raised rock to the west are three linked cups in a row and a pecked cup and ring,    The northern motif, although sharing some of these characteristics, is different. In the former, the tool marks are much more definite and heavy; here, although the serpentine grooves are a feature, they are made with a very fine pick, becoming fainter towards the north. A recessed cup and another cup form an asymmetric centre to a looped groove that encloses them, twisting to echo the linked penannulars of the first figure, but continuing fainter to loop around in a bisected circle with a faint cup.    The two motifs share sufficient characteristics to make it possible to assume that they were made at the same time, despite the contrast in picking techniques, and are aligned together. The north one has a made hollow in the same direction as the one to the south. On a slight rise there is a pristine pecked cup and ring and a cup. At a lower level on a step are two cups and a cup and ring.    The motifs are unusual and special even in a county that surprises by the variations that prehistoric people managed to get out of simple symbolism, but lie outside the cairn.     Further west on another level of rock is a deeply hacked motif discovered by excavation. It is a deep cup connected by an angular grove of the same depth to a cup with a thin ring around it. Its depth makes it stand out, on a north-south alignment, following the shape of the rock.    Also to the east on the north side is a roughly rectangular block that has much fainter, eroded cup and single ring motifs, those at the eastern edge in a line. Other small cup and single ring motifs appear on the same rock. These too were discovered by excavation. Why they should be fainter than the more complex motifs may be accounted for by their being on the outside of the cairn, and thus exposed.    Immediately west is a triangular shaped outcrop sandwiched between the cracks formed by lines of bedding, on which is a heavily-pecked cup and rings and a cup. There is some iron in the rock here, and the cutting of the motifs must have called for more strength and persistence. As all the pick marks are clear, it is possible that this part of the rock was covered over early in its history.    At the centre of the site is an already-recorded group of faint simple cup marks, with a deeper ?new? cup on its north edge.    The remaining decorated surfaces lie to the west. Most of these are recorded as rock 1a, b, and c. To the south a new series of motifs was excavated, all at a lower level than the others. In a long naturally sunken recess a cup surrounded by a pecked circle is the beginning of a heavily pecked, long groove like a stretched triangle. On either side the cup has two motifs of the cup and ring type, and other cups already drawn.     North of this, in the same alignment, is a panel of cups and linked cups already recorded (as 1b). A strong feature of this is the way the cups are clustered at the top of the rock, then linked like a necklace, running down the slope to link up with a cup and two concentric rings and a cup with a faint ring that is unfinished as an arc of small cups marks where the groove was planned to be.    The last area of rock to the north-west has been recorded at the top as 1e, with a packed cluster of cups. The newly exposed section on the slope to the north has cup and ring mark designs, some with grooves from the central cup, and all faint. The largest has a cup and two concentric rings.    4. Conclusion    The excavation has produced only a few additional cups and cup and ring marks, but this has completed the total picture of what is on the rock surfaces. My report, submitted with detailed drawings and photographs, has drawn attention to the fact that it is not possible to make any observations about chronology from the evidence of pristine and worn motifs, as erosion is bound to affect exposed rocks. It is up to the excavators to relate any other finds to a possible sequence of events. I am not confident from what I have seen at the site that this is going to be possible. Even the most preserved motifs are those not actually covered by the cairn, and their preservation will have to be accounted for by natural covering of, for example, wind-blown soil and vegetation.    Evidence of quarrying on the total mass of rock is ambiguous. Questions that I would ask are: what tools were available in Neolithic or early Bronze Age times (the possible age of the rock markings) to split rocks along their seams? The whole area has been re-used by generations after the rock art was put there, for there is a high concentration of enclosures for stock and for settlement, including a field wall that uses the outcrop and cairn as a guide.    The excavation is only a glimpse. More work will have to be done, for example on the cairns and rock art on the hill to the north and on the enclosures themselves to find some answers.    Drawing of enclosure marked rock    It is significant that the rock art extends into the Iron Age (?) enclosures themselves: a group of domino cups, similar to those on Chatton Park Hill and Dod Law have now been recorded among grooves that are partly natural and partly artificial enclosures. A considerable amount of stone has been quarried from the wider area to build stockades/enclosures, and one wonders whether the excavated rock may have provided some.    Our archive for rock art includes panels further to the east and to the north west. It now includes a panel on the outcrop edge of one enclosure to the west. It is possible that any future excavation that concentrates on the enclosures will find rock art that has been taken from elsewhere and used as building material or has been deliberately incorporated because it was recognised as a significant part of the past."

It is on a line of outcrops, S of Hunterheugh Crags hill top, which runs from the settlement to Hunterheugh 3 and 4 above Titlington Burn.    The panel lies within the Hunterheugh plateau of largely flat-topped moorland.  The edges of the plateau (extending northwards to be called Beanley Moor), are mainly steep slopes, with a series of crags of the Fell Sandstone Group.  The western flank of the plateau is a long gentle slope to the height of the terrace.  The plateau and most of the sloping ground is heather moor.    The site affords wide views.  The opposing and adjacent Midstead plateau and other more distant Fell Sandstone Group are seen as terraces and crags on the horizon to the south and west;  also visible are the Callaly/Thrunton Crags and Titlington Mount areas, over the Titlington Burn and adjacent lower land. This lower land is maintained as improved grassland retained as pasture and evergreen plantations.  Views into the plateau are limited by the flat-topped surface and small, localised crags.    A variety of archaeological remains have been recorded near the panels and plateau more generally, some of which may be contemporary with the rock carvings.  No Mesolithic finds have been recorded around the crags.  Nearby burnt mounds have been excavated by the Northumberland Archaeological Group and radiocarbon dated to the Neolithic/Earlier Bronze Age.

473,5,Tool marks visible in many of the covered motifs.
473,1,"A large outcrop that was cleared of vegetation during the excavation by Clive Waddington in 2004. His interpretation was of at least two phases of carving. The older carvings appear more eroded and designed for the surfaces on which they were carved, with individual motifs interrelated and often connected. In general, the more pristine motifs are widely spaced, are seldom connected and have not been combined to make an artistic whole decorating the rock surface. Waddington's interpretation was that these motifs were probably more recent, and carved  in a different tradition, maybe to replace older carvings that had been removed. They were probably covered soon after they were made by the building of a large Bronze Age burial cairn which had protected them from subsequent erosion.    Motifs Q and L, partially covered by the dispersed cairn, were originally described as Hunterheugh 1d by Beckensall (2001). Water flows in an interesting manner along the concentric rings and connecting grooves of motif Q from a deep cup at one end of the groove system, but whether this was ever the intention must be uncertain. The serpentine groove of motif L is, however, much more shallow and perhaps unfinished.  Large number of motifs including single cups, clusters of cups, cups with single and double rings and more complex variations. Some of the more pristine motifs which were previously covered show tool marks."

The largest motif is a cup and faint serpentine groove at the centre four angular rings. Among other cups are six motifs: a cup with a short groove running into a natural crack has two penannulars; a cup is at the centre of a ring with a small outer arc, below which is a very clearly pick-marked cup and groove at the centre of three penannulars, with an angular arc concentric to the outer ring.    Below this is a similarly clearly picked cup and groove with two penannulars, the end of the groove linking with a long curving groove from a cup at the centre of a ring and grooves that are not complete or symmetrically placed. A groove from a cup joins the groove from the above motif?s cup sideways. To the left of this irregular figure is a cup and groove at the centre of two angular rings with a third broken concentric ring on the outside. At the west end of the rock is a cluster of four cups.     All the grooves from these motifs follow the slope of the rock southwards, and those at the east end are fresher than the rest."

484,2,"Snook Bank is a large area east of the Millstone Burn.  It is a rounded flank of Fell Sandstone Group , and part of the larger Glantlees Hill, with southern and western slopes.  It is mainly moor and rough grassland, though formerly improved, being bounded northwards by a plantation.  There are localized craggy outcrops around the hill.  Several streams issue from the hill-slopes.    The panels across this area are located at various points on the slopes.  These include both in situ and moved examples, for the lower areas have seen recent field clearance.  Wide views can be obtained from the top of the hill towards the opposing Millstone Burn rock art area on the opposite valley side, as well as much of lowland Northumberland.    Fieldwalking in advance of the adjacent forestry plantation resulted in the collection of Mesolithic flint artefacts in this area.  Several monuments possibly contemporary with the rock art have been recorded.  Funerary forms and structures are present, with other cairns resulting from agricultural clearance, all likely Bronze Age.  A hut circle has also been recorded, though it is unclear if this is Bronze Age or later in date.  Such remains are also present nearby on Longframlington Common.  Medieval and later settlement and field remains have also been recorded, as well as localized quarrying.  Use of the area for Post Medieval grazing lands has led to the preservation of the rock art and the surrounding field monuments of all periods."

These features could all be interpreted as natural erosion although the same effects of erosion also make it impossible to rule out any prior human-made motifs.

The path that leads from Snook Bank to Caller Crags runs through the wood as a wide track beyond Wellhope. To the east of the path is a block of outcrop, quarried on its western edge and overgrown with heather and trees on the east. It slopes slightly to the east; the surface is fairly uniform and its irregularities are used in the placing of motifs.    The GPS reading was provided by Andrew Curtis on 6 May 2006."

576,1,"The panel was originally given an incorrect location in the Beckensall Archive although this has now been corrected. It is still inexact in the HER (4255). The Beckensall description of its location is accurate. The outcrop has been quarried on its W edge and the E edge, to which it slopes, and is overgrown with heather and trees. The main motif is a cup with a short groove running to the NE, surrounded by a penannular. This appears to have been carved in a shallow circular basin and it is likely that this, and an outer fractured region, have probably been artificially created. There are many scattered cups, clustered particularly on the W side.  A large number of cups, estimated at least twenty, of a reasonable size and possibly another twenty smaller ones."

577,1,"A large outcrop, mostly turf-covered, on E side of a low mound. The rock is divided by a large number of parallel cracks, predominantly running from N-S but also in other directions. The smaller cups in particular, appear to be associated with these cracks and may be natural features formed in lines of weakness, particularly those E of the large cups. A crack running W-E that starts at one of the larger cups to the W, for example,  initiates a chain of smaller, misshapen depressions particularly at the junction with fine cracks in the N-S direction. One of these in the centre of the panel is much deeper than the others and probably has a natural origin. The main feature of the panel are five large cups in an arc with two others to the E and W. They vary in size but are symmetrical in shape. Natural cracks run into some of these cups as well but others of them are on areas of the rock surface between cracks. They give a strong impression of having been human-made. A line of four very small cups occurs on the SW side of the panel below turf. They are very shallow, not associated with the network of cracks, and may show peck-marks, although mechanical damage cannot be ruled out.  Minimum of twenty cups of varying size and depth, plus another four very small ones. Largest two cups are about 10cm in diameter."
577,2,"On the E side of a low mound that is probably formed from the same outcrop, 300m ENE of Hawick Farm, close to a footpath that runs E from the farm. Another small outcrop lies 20m to the N, beyond which the field shows clear ridge and furrow ploughing. A spring lies some 30m to the SE. This is on the line of a shallow re-entrant that runs down from the direction of the farm and has been almost completely filled-in by rubble in the same field, just S of the panel. It may have been the past location of a small water-course.  The upper reaches of the River Wansbeck, which flows out of Sweethope Lough some 2km to the W, runs through the small wooded valley of Crook Dean about 500m to the E. There is an unfortified enclosure of undetermined age, on the SE slope of a low ridge at South Berry Hills, about 400m to the N (SMR 9547), and a prominent Bronze Age round cairn, 1km NE of the panel along the same ridge (SMR 9558), although these are both too far away to determine association.  Ray Fell lies about 2km to the N and there has been no other rock art recorded in the area. SMR 9550 (NMR 20997) records an Iron Age uni-vallate hillfort on Great Wanney Crag (N of Sweethope Lough at NY 9319 8338), and describes a cup marked stone with a groove at NY 9323 8340. A group of at least five others, but well worn, is said to lie on the edge of the cliff face within the enclosure. Observation of these cannot rule out an origin by processes of natural erosion that often occur on the edges of outcrop rock in such locations.  There is a excellent view of the Simonside Hills from the farm."

It had been unloaded from the JCB which had been its means of transport, onto an old sofa in the farm grounds. The current owner says it had been brought from a site near Belsay circa 2004 (where he was involved in contracted work) thus preventing it from destruction. It has now been placed as a feature on a gravel base outside the farmhouse. The actual find site is not known. It may have originally been outcropping rock or a detached slab, possibly from a cist."

579,10011,"Found by others, but lost in the thickness of the newly planted wood, it was relocated by Irene and Ian Hewitt, who discovered three runes on the same outcrop. This was a major discovery, as runes in such a position are rare or even unique. Consultation with experts revealed they may have been part of a sacred text, and that their meaning was either ?to leave or leave behind?, from the Old English verb laefen, or ?a remnant or relic,? from laf. An alternative is that they are Old Norse, from the noun lof, meaning ?praise or permission,? or laf, meaning ?bread or sustenance.?    It is difficult to say why the panel is in this place, but if the trees were removed it would command another extensive view, and be a marker to a higher place on the scarp."
579,2,"The rock is situated 7.5m NE of a small, and often indistinct, path through the woods which at this point runs in a hollow way. The outcrop lies at the S end of a line of outcrops which curve away through dense forest to the N. At this point, the conifer plantation is broken by a large patch of rhododendrons with deciduous trees below.    The nearest other rock art panels to this site are found 1300m S at Corby Crags rock shelter, and 1km  ENE at Lamp Hill. A number of bronze age cists were apparently discovered 800m NW of this panel, in a field E of Lemmington Hall (SMR 4460). In the absence of trees, the panel would overlook this site.    This area, one of the highest parts of the Fell Sandstone Group arc, is largely clothed by trees but deforested, the crag would enjoy wide views along the Fell Sandstone Group arc northwards and southwestwards particularly.  The nearby lower ?islands? of the group of Midstead, Titlington and Hunterheugh/Beanley can be seen generally northwest."

579,1,"As described in HER 4471 the sculptured rock was originally found by Mr F E Lupton, Manager, Lemmington Estate. The rock was relocated by Ian and Irene Hewitt in 1991 who discovered the runes during preparation of the rock for wax rubbing and photography of the cup and ring marks. There is no parallel for their position next to cup and ring marks, and runes carved on natural outcrops are extremely rare in England, though more common in Scandinavia. A tentative transliteration of the runes has been reported by Beckensall.  The motifs are carved on a flat part of the outcrop surface and consist of a cup with single ring joined by a groove to another cup which is surrounded by a complete ring and a second eroded ring or penannular. The symmetry of the motifs is affected by two straight parallel scratches in the rock surface above and below the NE'most cup and ring and are probably unlikely to be part of the original design.  The runes are about 30cm S of the cup and ring motifs on a sloping face of the same outcrop.  Cup with single ring joined by a groove to another cup which is surrounded by a complete ring and a second eroded ring or penannular."

580,2,"The rock shelter is just S of the fence boundary on the ridge that runs down to Corby's Bridge on the Rothbury to Alnwick Road. The boundary between Percy and Swinburne land used to pass over the E part of the outcrop as shown by carved initials ""S"" and ""P"". The rock shelter was excavated by Stan Beckensall in July 1975 and this revealed several flint artefacts along with evidence of more recent occupation. Buried in the floor of the shelter was an Early Bronze Age cremation in a food vessel covered with a triangular capstone. The basin and groove above the cave was discovered at that time and then as now, is easiest seen in oblique sunlight. The carving may be contemporary with the Bronze Age burial,  but this is not certain. The style differs from the usual cup and ring tradition found further south at Millstone Burn and Snook Bank. Other basins on the N part of the same outcrop are likely to be natural features.     A possible burial mound close to the rock shelter (SMR 4229) has also been later interpreted as spoil from a nearby bell pit.  Further down the ridge at NU 1265 0969 is Corby's Bridge Iron Age and Romano-British settlement (SMR 4220), a native fort with multiple ramparts of stone and associated enclosures."

581,10011,"The site was discovered when a local teacher brought to me (Stan Beckensall) some pottery rim sherds that he had dug up in the shelter. When I went at once to the site it was late afternoon and the low rays of the setting sun picked out a large basin with a groove running from it and a groove surrounding it. This is near the top of the dome, which has been cut into to provide a boundary between Percy and Swinburne lands (marked P/S on the rock) and continues down the rock in a series of cut steps. The boundary continues in the opposite direction as a wire fence. The dome outcrop has been partially quarried, with signs of millstone extraction, and this has confused the identification of what may be cup marks.  There are two standing stones on the slope below the overhang. Outside the fence boundary are disused bell pits for coal extraction, now filled in and grassed over.    I excavated the floor of the rockshelter, where there was a mixture of artefacts from the Middle Stone Age flint knapping (c. 8,ooo years ago) to modern glass, clay pipes, teacup and a penknife. This place had sheltered many people; an armchair and ledges cut into solid rock with metal tools was a good place to sit in a rock overhang with part of the open end screened off.    On the floor, leading to a triangular stone that covered a cremation burial in a food vessel of c. 2,000BC was a groove leading to it, picked out with a hard stone tool. Although it is not possible to be categorical about this, there is likely to be a link between the pick marks on the floor and the basin and groove above. It is safe to say that no matter what the time-span may be, the place was of great significance to the makers of the motifs and those who buried the cremated remains of one of their people under the rock floor with a flat stone on top. A stray find nearby of an equal barb and tang arrowhead links the pot chronologically with hunting in the area.    I excavated the whole surface of the shelter and the standing stone 5m away on the slope; the latter proved to have been erected not in a pit, but by wedging its wide flat base with stones to prevent it from toppling over. A definite link between the time the stone was erected and the prehistoric use of the shelter cannot be made, but is likely.    Below the rock shelter towards the road, on a sloping platform there is an enclosure, possibly Iron Age, with two concentric walls that end at the cliff edge above a small waterfall."

581,1,"This rock shelter is in a partly quarried outcrop and has extensive views to W. The floor is smooth sandstone but more coarse sandstones are found on the shelter's upper surface. Steep steps, probably created by quarrying of rectangular blocks, have been cut to the N side of the cave entrance, and the latter has been enhanced with rough tool marked slots to hold timber posts, and protected outside by a low earth and stone bank. Ledges and seating were created inside. The rock shelter was excavated by Stan Beckensall in July 1975 and revealed several flint artefacts along with evidence of more recent occupation. Buried in the floor of the shelter was an Early Bronze Age cremation in a food vessel covered with a triangular capstone. The long curved groove that is directed towards the burial location at the lowest part of the cave floor was considered by Beckensall to have been picked out with a hard stone tool.  A groove curves from top of slab at the N part of the cave entrance, crosses a prominent NW-SE vein then continues more or less straight following the vein."

582,1,This record for a deeply cup-marked and vertically grooved stone alongside a boundary marker (HER 4231) originated with Stan Beckensall's excavation of the Corby's Crags rock shelter.

As a feature in the landscape this would have been a very striking reference point for people moving through the landscape. The south face of part of this outcrop is vertical, and is peppered with artificial cup marks, many clustered and touching. There is only one ring. On the top of the outcrop are two basins and cups.

583,1,"Caller Crags is subject to extreme exposure to the weather and there are many examples of different and often spectacular erosion features. The rock exposed here is massive and of variable geology often with a mixture of pink and grey quartz grains. Softer parts have weathered into sculpted shapes and small arches, while some faces have formed large polygonal cracks. Water run off and differential weathering have caused pitting and cratering often to a marked degree on the W faces. The views and setting are spectacular and these cliffs may have provided both shelter and grazing areas for prehistoric people. This is an inspiring place which motivated one NADRAP team member to compose a folk tune 'Caller Crags' which has since been recorded.     Any carving on these crags is likely to be badly eroded, although the lower E face would be the most protected from weathering yet motifs on the E facing part of the massive outcrop was described by both Beckensall and van Hoek but is now unclear: The ring around one cup (in group c of Ian Hewitt's illustration in the Beckensall Archive) could not be detected, and van Hoek's drawing also failed to show this.     Other cups are randomly distributed apart from a group in the main region of the vertical face (d) in which six cups form a curved line with a 'handle' of three cups at each end. However, they appear to be formed in lines of weakness (the extension of a natural crack) which may add weight to speculation of their natural origin. Observations of small regions of radiating crystals within the matrix of the rock lead us to speculate on the presence of fossils or inclusions that may be more prone to dissolution or weathering.    There is a single cup about 1m S of the main group and another after a further 1m. These may have been protected by turf cover. Group c lies 1.5m SW and has up to eight cups.  Group b is about 1m further SW and has four cups. These groups are all illustrated by van Hoek (panel 80). Group a is on a different rock face has five cups and a several small cups in a groove. These, and the two larger basins on the horizontal slab above group (d), could all be natural features. A huge basin is to be found at the highest point beyond a rift that cleaves the cliff in two. Graffiti of carved initials ('TL') on the same cliff face, further along to N from section (d).  About fifty cups in lines and random arrangement. Small cups in a compact random cluster. The cups are of a reasonable size and differ from those clearly caused by weathering on W side of cliff but still possibly natural erosion of sandstone inclusions caused by running water."

Here the River Breamish begins to bend northwards on its way, under the new name of River Till at Old Bewick, to flow towards the Milfield basin.    A large boulder excavated by gravel extracting machinery lay near to the manager?s office in 1994. It had been apparently found at a depth of over 3m in gravel, in a hollow filled with ?black silt?, according to the operator. The manager saw the concentric circles on it and kept it safe. Its future was subject to discussion between him and the County Archaeologist; I was able to make a detailed recording of it.    What was it doing there, and why so deep? The problem is to be weighed against the recent work of Peter Tipping (Tipping 1992 and pers. Comm.) in assessing the extent of prehistoric fills in the Cheviots. The great depth of gravel now being extracted at Powburn is the result of erosion in the Breamish valley in late prehistoric times, and the build up of these deposits in the valley had buried the boulder. If so, the boulder could be in its original position at the entrance to the valley, which has field systems, settlements and cairns that speak of intense activity there. What we cannot be sure about, though, because of the nature of the excavation, is the precise location and nature of the burial of the stone.    In 2003, the boulder was moved to the Northumberland National Park, Ingram Visitor Centre."

604,10011,"Sandstone cliffs at Morwick, rising from the River Coquet at a fording place, have some of the most unusual motifs in Britain. They were discovered in the nineteenth century and drawn, but closer investigation has led me to find many more on the same surface. They are atypical, as a glance at the drawings shows, for they are based mainly on spiral motifs. Some others may have tumbled from the rock face into the river, where parts of the cliff have collapsed.    The site has a shut--in feel, despite the fact that the land opens up on the north part of the river. The sun seldom reaches the north--facing motifs, which are liberally distributed. Many are beyond easy reach, which suggests that either equipment was needed to reach them or the river was higher. To record some of them, I (Stan Beckensall) had to have a ladder lodged in the river bed when the water was at its lowest. Locally the site has been known as the ?Jack Rock,? with one design seen as a lion?s face.    The motifs were first recorded in the History of the Berwick Naturalists? Club, Volume X (1882-4) by James Hardy after their discovery by Mr Middleton Dand of Hauxley.    Apart from their obvious context at an important fording place across a river that must have been a major food source and vital means of communication, there is a hint that there may have been burials nearby. Mr Dand wrote:  There are several mounds running from north to south on the north side of the river on Warkworth Moor?they are not unlike barrows?or?they may be merely owing to tracks worn at different ages to Pomfret?s Ford.    However, we have to accept that these motifs lie in isolation from any definite prehistoric sites. The spiral motifs are quite different from cups and rings. The only other examples in Northumberland are at Lilburn and West Horton. If we are looking for sea--borne sources of influence (and I don?t see why we should), the obvious direction is not from Ireland, where spirals are frequent in decoration of passage graves. Further north, at Hawthornden in Scotland are similar spirals on cliffs, but that does not link them except stylistically. More obvious parallels would be in Galloway, to the west. So why are they here, who put them there and why? I don?t know. Spirals of any kind are rare in Britain. Their contexts, spread widely, include stone circles, pottery, carved stone balls, maceheads, reused slabs in early Bronze Age graves, and in passage graves in Ireland, Anglesey and Orkney. Some are on rock outcrops. They are not all alike: the horned spiral occurs, for example, only at Morwick and Lilburn, and in Scotland at Temple Wood, Achnabreck, Lamancha, Gilnockie Tower and Orkney. It occurs too on a Grooved Ware vessel from Radley. ?Triple spirals? occur only at Morwick, Achnabreck, and New Grange (Ireland), but they are joined in different ways.    This is what makes Morwick so special, for it has single, S-shaped, horned and triple spirals as well as a unique design of three spirals linked to concentric circles and a spiral surrounded by a ring of cups. All this is to be set against the great rarity of spirals of any kind in Britain. Its position in the landscape makes it one of only 11 open-air sites in northern England and southern Scotland. Unlike the more usual cup and ring motifs this is on a vertical cliff rather than on near-horizontal rock. Its position is in a very important river valley, with many prehistoric sites along the course of the river, close to access from and egress to the sea. There is no man--made monument there, but its position is naturally striking as an important river crossing, so to travellers, hunters, settlers and fishermen it would act as a reference point, taking on perhaps a ritual significance of such importance that it inspired a unique art form. No one had to teach the people to do that; we do not have to look for sources of this art; it may even have been the source. I believe that many motifs can be produced by many different people in different parts of the world instinctively. (Young children are particularly good at discovering spirals for themselves, and I have seen people who are bored in committee meetings forming them on their note pads and agendas.)    In Galloway the majority of spirals are not used in association with cup and ring motifs, but are on rocks by themselves, despite the latter being widely distributed.    The places where spirals have the most significance in England and Scotland are on stone circles, such as Long Meg and Castlerigg (Cumbria), in the passage graves of the Boyne valley (Eire), Anglesey and Orkney. At Newgrange Eire) they are at particularly important places in the grave; as many are inside, only a few people at a time could view them; others are placed on the decorated kerbstones. Such placement gives us a rare dating possibility, but for that site only: later Neolithic. It is just possible that the re-excavation of the pit at Lilburn could provide more information by using modern methods of excavation. It has been said that the horned spiral at Achnabreck is earlier than the cup and ring motifs on the same rock; as it is in exactly the same condition as the best of them, I can see no reason for saying so.    Despite many attempts to explain them, much speculation remains in a world of fantasy-- at least, it doesn?t convince me! What we cannot deny is that they were very important to the people who made and used them; the motifs had a meaning that may continue to elude us. The danger is that we read ourselves into them - a natural response that brings many answers."

Morwick panel 1b is adjacent to the W.  There is said to be an ancient ford across the river at NU 2360 0499 (Pauper's Ford; SMR 5557).  It is likely that the river has altered its course over time and may now be much closer to the cliff than in past times.

The whole cliff edge is best seen in its entirety from the north bank of the river. The cliff follows an inwardly curving line with angled, sheer and overhanging faces.  Its base reaches the river in places, but in parts is obscured by earthen banks.  There is little naturally outcropping rock evident in this area along the steep, largely wooded, banks of the river.  The surrounding ground is largely improved and maintained undulating grassland, with overgrown riverbanks east and west, and a small copse in the adjacent dene and trees at the cliff top.  Views can be obtained from the top of the cliff, across the river to the low-lying ground opposite.    No sites contemporary with the rock art has been recorded from the area around the river cliff, though it is noted that this area has been subject to intensive agriculture for some length of time.  Earlier records note an earthen mound crossing the river bend, over the adjacent Warkworth Moor; this could have been a prehistoric (specific period unknown ) monument though this is impossible to verify.

605,10006,"This panel is unique, the most complex of all the designs. To the right is a cup surrounded by three concentric rings. A groove runs round the outer ring to enclose an arrangement of three spirals that run from it. The top two (with some confusing additional pecking) are clockwise single ?shepherd?s crook? spirals and below is an anti--clockwise spiral that curls around itself before becoming part of the heart--shaped surrounding groove. The groove around the concentric circles, met by this groove from the spiral, ends at the rock edge. Below that is a groove running concentric to it. Further below is a square enclosure with rounded corners, with two faint cups inside.     Above this complex heart--shaped arrangement is a clockwise spiral of three turns that runs into the outer groove. Branching out from the same major groove is a clockwise spiral, linked to it by a long groove. Above are faint arcs that echo the shapes of the outer turns of the spirals, one then moving off to the left to join the next complex motifs.    At the bottom of the left-hand side group is a horned spiral, very worn or unfinished in its centre. There is a deep oval groove enclosing the whole figure; from the bottom a U--shaped rise, echoed by another above it, provides the bridge in between the two horns, one clockwise and the other anti--clockwise.    A clockwise spiral joins the outer groove of the horned spiral from the right, surrounded by a ring. This ring has a groove branching into the outer curve of one of three spirals that are all linked. The bottom two spirals are arranged as a horned spiral, one clockwise, the other anti--clockwise. The third, anti--clockwise, spiral is linked to the curved groove that joins them. There are three other fainter spirals, two of which are arranged clockwise and anti--clockwise as a horned spiral; between them is another clockwise spiral.

If we are looking for sea--borne sources of influence (and I don?t see why we should), the obvious direction is not from Ireland, where spirals are frequent in decoration of passage graves. Further north, at Hawthornden in Scotland are similar spirals on cliffs, but that does not link them except stylistically. More obvious parallels would be in Galloway, to the west. So why are they here, who put them there and why? I don?t know. Spirals of any kind are rare in Britain. Their contexts, spread widely, include stone circles, pottery, carved stone balls, maceheads, reused slabs in early Bronze Age graves, and in passage graves in Ireland, Anglesey and Orkney. Some are on rock outcrops. They are not all alike: the horned spiral occurs, for example, only at Morwick and Lilburn, and in Scotland at Temple Wood, Achnabreck, Lamancha, Gilnockie Tower and Orkney. It occurs too on a Grooved Ware vessel from Radley. ?Triple spirals? occur only at Morwick, Achnabreck, and New Grange (Ireland), but they are joined in different ways.    This is what makes Morwick so special, for it has single, S-shaped, horned and triple spirals as well as a unique design of three spirals linked to concentric circles and a spiral surrounded by a ring of cups. All this is to be set against the great rarity of spirals of any kind in Britain. Its position in the landscape makes it one of only 11 open-air sites in northern England and southern Scotland. Unlike the more usual cup and ring motifs this is on a vertical cliff rather than on near-horizontal rock. Its position is in a very important river valley, with many prehistoric sites along the course of the river, close to access from and egress to the sea. There is no man--made monument there, but its position is naturally striking as an important river crossing, so to travellers, hunters, settlers and fishermen it would act as a reference point, taking on perhaps a ritual significance of such importance that it inspired a unique art form. No one had to teach the people to do that; we do not have to look for sources of this art; it may even have been the source. I believe that many motifs can be produced by many different people in different parts of the world instinctively. (Young children are particularly good at discovering spirals for themselves, and I have seen people who are bored in committee meetings forming them on their note pads and agendas.)    In Galloway the majority of spirals are not used in association with cup and ring motifs, but are on rocks by themselves, despite the latter being widely distributed.    The places where spirals have the most significance in England and Scotland are on stone circles, such as Long Meg and Castlerigg (Cumbria), in the passage graves of the Boyne valley (Eire), Anglesey and Orkney. At Newgrange Eire) they are at particularly important places in the grave; as many are inside, only a few people at a time could view them; others are placed on the decorated kerbstones. Such placement gives us a rare dating possibility, but for that site only: later Neolithic. It is just possible that the re-excavation of the pit at Lilburn could provide more information by using modern methods of excavation. It has been said that the horned spiral at Achnabreck is earlier than the cup and ring motifs on the same rock; as it is in exactly the same condition as the best of them, I can see no reason for saying so.    Despite many attempts to explain them, much speculation remains in a world of fantasy-- at least, it doesn?t convince me! What we cannot deny is that they were very important to the people who made and used them; the motifs had a meaning that may continue to elude us.

They were discovered in the nineteenth century and drawn, but closer investigation has led me to find many more on the same surface. They are atypical, as a glance at the drawings shows, for they are based mainly on spiral motifs. Some others may have tumbled from the rock face into the river, where parts of the cliff have collapsed.    The site has a shut--in feel, despite the fact that the land opens up on the north part of the river. The sun seldom reaches the north--facing motifs, which are liberally distributed. Many are beyond easy reach, which suggests that either equipment was needed to reach them or the river was higher. To record some of them, I (Stan Beckensall) had to have a ladder lodged in the river bed when the water was at its lowest. Locally the site has been known as the ?Jack Rock,? with one design seen as a lion?s face.    The motifs were first recorded in the History of the Berwick Naturalists? Club, Volume X (1882-4) by James Hardy after their discovery by Mr Middleton Dand of Hauxley.    Apart from their obvious context at an important fording place across a river that must have been a major food source and vital means of communication, there is a hint that there may have been burials nearby. Mr Dand wrote:  There are several mounds running from north to south on the north side of the river on Warkworth Moor?they are not unlike barrows?or?they may be merely owing to tracks worn at different ages to Pomfret?s Ford.    However, we have to accept that these motifs lie in isolation from any definite prehistoric sites. The spiral motifs are quite different from cups and rings. The only other examples in Northumberland are at Lilburn and West Horton.

Further north, at Hawthornden in Scotland are similar spirals on cliffs, but that does not link them except stylistically. More obvious parallels would be in Galloway, to the west. So why are they here, who put them there and why? I don?t know. Spirals of any kind are rare in Britain. Their contexts, spread widely, include stone circles, pottery, carved stone balls, maceheads, reused slabs in early Bronze Age graves, and in passage graves in Ireland, Anglesey and Orkney. Some are on rock outcrops. They are not all alike: the horned spiral occurs, for example, only at Morwick and Lilburn, and in Scotland at Temple Wood, Achnabreck, Lamancha, Gilnockie Tower and Orkney. It occurs too on a Grooved Ware vessel from Radley. ?Triple spirals? occur only at Morwick, Achnabreck, and New Grange (Ireland), but they are joined in different ways.    This is what makes Morwick so special, for it has single, S-shaped, horned and triple spirals as well as a unique design of three spirals linked to concentric circles and a spiral surrounded by a ring of cups.

615,10011,"Sandstone cliffs at Morwick, rising from the River Coquet at a fording place, have some of the most unusual motifs in Britain. They were discovered in the nineteenth century and drawn, but closer investigation has led me to find many more on the same surface.

Some others may have tumbled from the rock face into the river, where parts of the cliff have collapsed.    The site has a shut--in feel, despite the fact that the land opens up on the north part of the river. The sun seldom reaches the north--facing motifs, which are liberally distributed. Many are beyond easy reach, which suggests that either equipment was needed to reach them or the river was higher. To record some of them, I (Stan Beckensall) had to have a ladder lodged in the river bed when the water was at its lowest.

Apart from their obvious context at an important fording place across a river that must have been a major food source and vital means of communication, there is a hint that there may have been burials nearby. Mr Dand wrote:  There are several mounds running from north to south on the north side of the river on Warkworth Moor?they are not unlike barrows?or?they may be merely owing to tracks worn at different ages to Pomfret?s Ford.    However, we have to accept that these motifs lie in isolation from any definite prehistoric sites. The spiral motifs are quite different from cups and rings. The only other examples in Northumberland are at Lilburn and West Horton. If we are looking for sea--borne sources of influence (and I don?t see why we should), the obvious direction is not from Ireland, where spirals are frequent in decoration of passage graves. Further north, at Hawthornden in Scotland are similar spirals on cliffs, but that does not link them except stylistically. More obvious parallels would be in Galloway, to the west. So why are they here, who put them there and why? I don?t know. Spirals of any kind are rare in Britain. Their contexts, spread widely, include stone circles, pottery, carved stone balls, maceheads, reused slabs in early Bronze Age graves, and in passage graves in Ireland, Anglesey and Orkney. Some are on rock outcrops. They are not all alike: the horned spiral occurs, for example, only at Morwick and Lilburn, and in Scotland at Temple Wood, Achnabreck, Lamancha, Gilnockie Tower and Orkney. It occurs too on a Grooved Ware vessel from Radley. ?Triple spirals? occur only at Morwick, Achnabreck, and New Grange (Ireland), but they are joined in different ways.    This is what makes Morwick so special, for it has single, S-shaped, horned and triple spirals as well as a unique design of three spirals linked to concentric circles and a spiral surrounded by a ring of cups. All this is to be set against the great rarity of spirals of any kind in Britain. Its position in the landscape makes it one of only 11 open-air sites in northern England and southern Scotland. Unlike the more usual cup and ring motifs this is on a vertical cliff rather than on near-horizontal rock. Its position is in a very important river valley, with many prehistoric sites along the course of the river, close to access from and egress to the sea. There is no man--made monument there, but its position is naturally striking as an important river crossing, so to travellers, hunters, settlers and fishermen it would act as a reference point, taking on perhaps a ritual significance of such importance that it inspired a unique art form. No one had to teach the people to do that; we do not have to look for sources of this art; it may even have been the source. I believe that many motifs can be produced by many different people in different parts of the world instinctively. (Young children are particularly good at discovering spirals for themselves, and I have seen people who are bored in committee meetings forming them on their note pads and agendas.)    In Galloway the majority of spirals are not used in association with cup and ring motifs, but are on rocks by themselves, despite the latter being widely distributed.    The places where spirals have the most significance in England and Scotland are on stone circles, such as Long Meg and Castlerigg (Cumbria), in the passage graves of the Boyne valley (Eire), Anglesey and Orkney. At Newgrange Eire) they are at particularly important places in the grave; as many are inside, only a few people at a time could view them; others are placed on the decorated kerbstones. Such placement gives us a rare dating possibility, but for that site only: later Neolithic. It is just possible that the re-excavation of the pit at Lilburn could provide more information by using modern methods of excavation. It has been said that the horned spiral at Achnabreck is earlier than the cup and ring motifs on the same rock; as it is in exactly the same condition as the best of them, I can see no reason for saying so.    Despite many attempts to explain them, much speculation remains in a world of fantasy-- at least, it doesn?t convince me! What we cannot deny is that they were very important to the people who made and used them; the motifs had a meaning that may continue to elude us. The danger is that we read ourselves into them - a natural response that brings many answers."

It is on roughly the same level as 2g and 2e as a continuation of the same crack can be followed by eye above all these panels, and perhaps represents an original path level which has now been eroded away by the river. Old photographs suggest that the river has indeed moved closer in to the cliff in recent years. If this were the case it may have been unnecessary for prehistoric artist to have climbed or used artificial supports in order to carve the Morwick rock faces.

656,10011,"Gled Law is the continuation of the Dod Law scarp SW, with a similar view across the Till valley to the west, and sight of the river as it breaks through the scarp from the east to Weetwood Bridge.  It is divided from the Buttony sites to the east by a small stream and valley.    Although motifs on it have disappeared, George Tate (1865) has left an account and drawings of them.  He says, ""On the scalp of the rock where it dips into the hill, four figures are traceable; but from being very much defaced, it is difficult to make out these forms, even when viewed under a favourable light"". The figures that he draws are a cup and ring, a cup, ring, a second interrupted ring from which curved grooves extend, a cup and three concentric rings, and a cup and two concentric rings.  On the perpendicular western face he found and drew some other designs which are not of the same type; he thought them more likely to be medieval. The importance of this place therefore continued, and from it the Milfield Plain and Cheviots are viewed.    The landscape has changed since then, in that some monuments have been cleared away.  The most recent disturbance is the laying of a gas pipeline.  The ritual significance of the area is suggested by reports of burials.    At NU 00570 30620 (Mill Lands), W Procter reported that "" In 1867 a cist was uncovered by the plough in a field near this (Gled Law) quite close to 'Cuddy's Cove'.  Greenwell wrote, ""The cist was found on June 21, 1867, in a sandy knoll rising from the River Till and in close proximity to one of the rocks engraved with the circular markings"".  This has gone.    Davison and Davison (1935-6) said that ""evidence still exists to show that Gled Law was used for burial purposes.  It would be interesting to excavate at least two of the large mounds on the hill, either of which may be a barrow.""    It is likely that more archaeology has been destroyed or covered over.  For example, Mr Davison also recorded ""One cup with a faintly discernible ring"" where it is now pasture.    Mr. Tate reported that by 1868 ""seven groups of inscriptions have recently been discovered.  In this assemblage of sculptures, there are traceable thirty-six figures, mostly typical forms; yet in some cases, so varied and combined, as to present new figures.""  Plate V shows them, drawn from rubbings made by Mr. William Procter, Jnr.  Mr. Bruce also drew some of them.    The figures on Gled Law Site 2a in my illustration, with its three radial grooves, was discovered by Mrs. Procter.  Mr. Tate says, "" The whole of these sculptures were rudely formed, the incisions are shallow, and the tool marks distinct; the circles are irregular and had evidently been drawn without instrumental aid.""  He also noted that, ""About fifty yards from these sculptures, Mr. Procter has recently discovered the fragments of a sepulchral urn of the ordinary ancient British type.""  His observations on how the motifs were made suggests that the rocks had been covered over for some time, leaving the motifs more or less in their pristine state.  What Mr. Tate considered ""rudely formed"" means that no attempt had been made to deepen or smooth the cups and grooves; they were left with the pick marks clear."

658,2,"This area can be defined as the southeastern slopes from the Doddington Moor and Gled Law plateaux to the River Till and the stream behind Hetton.  The gentle slopes are mainly improved grassland and evergreen plantations used for the rearing of stock and gamebirds respectively.  Scattered outcrops are present throughout these slopes, often with dumped stones from the surrounding fields and gorse bushes in elevated areas.  Little now remains of monuments contemporary with the creation of the rock art panels here, though these have been recorded, as have some finds, in the course of agricultural activities.    The slopes give good views from the elevated high ground across the Till Valley and its tributary the Hetton Burn.  The rock art panels are found down the valley sides, so a variety of levels of view are obtained, but a spur of land prevents views to other areas in the lower areas.  The Till Valley changes course below these panels, from south to the west, as it skirts around the Gled Law/Doddington Moor area.     There are no associated monuments contemporary with the rock carvings in this area.  The nearest such monument is a stone circle at Doddington Moor.  There has been widespread agricultural improvement and plantations of the surrounding ground.  This has resulted in the destruction of a later prehistoric unenclosed settlement, possibly Bronze Age, and led to the discovery of several prehistoric flint artefacts.  Several loose stone scatters are noted in the nearby field edges as modern clearance cairns.  The good views from elevated parts of the area are indicated by the presence of  a number of World War 2 pillboxes."

664,10006,"Apart from minor plough scratches, the motifs are very well-preserved, with fresh pick-marks.      There are three sets of motifs.  At one end, with a little broken off the edge, is a motif centred by a cup from which a duct runs, and is forked at the end.  The cup has a groove around it, curved at the top, and angular at its sides.  The second groove outside this, and roughly concentric to it, is angular, beginning at the place where the duct bends, and proceeding as angled straight lines.    The other side of this second surrounding groove is outlined as three large pick marks, where it approaches the duct, then makes an angular turn.      On this side is a third groove that dips to meet the duct, and then proceeds roughly concentric to the second.  On the opposite side, a line of seven pick marks in an arc indicates that some sort of outer groove was intended, but never completed.    Below this figure is a cup and serpentine duct, making a centre for a near-pear-shaped groove.  An outer groove is incomplete at the RHS, and a faint groove from the LHS reaches the duct.    A third motif is a cup and duct with a faint surrounding groove.  There are some stray pick marks on the rock.  The cups of these three motifs are of the same size and depth, two of the ducts are not straight, and the grooves around the cups are not only tentative, but angular.  It leaves a strong impression that the design was roughed-out, but not completed."

676,2,"This extensive area of moorland, rough grazing and golf course is a prominent landscape feature of north Northumberland.  The area rises from undulating eastern slopes above West Horton to a plateau height of Dod Law, above steep scarp edges which in places, on the south and west, comprises blocky crags.  The main moor area is broadly divided into two by a stream running south to north.  This is a typical Fell Sandstone Group terrace with western crags and eastern dip-slope, draining in all directions, through established courses at the fringes, giving the appearance of an island of substantially higher ground.  Gled Law issues from the flanks of Doddington Moor.     From the plateau edges wide views can be obtained in a variety of directions,  to the distant Cheviot Hills and other Fell Sandstone Group areas, over the Till, Hetton Burn, Doddington Dene and other valleys. These views include many other rock art areas.    There is an extensive series of rock art panels across the area (in some cases called Dod Law), with a number of contemporary monuments.  Since the creation of the rock art, modifications to the landscape have taken place across the whole area, so the panels are a mixture of in situ and moved panels.      No Mesolithic presence has been recorded on this moor.  Monuments contemporary with the rock art carvings have been recorded from various locations: a stone circle, roughly central to the area and a pair of stones, possibly a stone setting, have been recorded,   The dating for both monuments is unconfirmed, their relationships with each other and with the  rock art are unknown. Several Bronze Age barrows and cairns were recorded in the 19th century, some definitively funerary monuments, others possibly clearance cairns. Bronze Age, Iron Age and Romano-British settlements, enclosures and hillforts have been recorded across the area.  It is unknown whether or not the rock art panels would have been visible in these periods but some panels are only metres away from these sites.      Recent field clearance is partially responsible for the movement and relocation of some rock art panels; many small clearance cairns have been noted, and where ploughed, finds of stone artefacts are recorded.  Widespread Medieval and Post Medieval clearance at the scarp edges that may have also destroyed rock art panels."

677,10011,"Clive Waddington's excavations and fieldwork on the Milfield Plain follow on the work of others, such as Roger Miket, Colin Burgess and Anthony Harding, revealing the Plain as a very rich Neolithic and later landscape.  15 'hengiforms' have been identified, for example, and the Coupland 'Henge', recently partially excavated, has proven to be earlier than the earliest Stonehenge.  It also may be a cattle enclosure; perhaps animals were driven from the grazing areas where the decorated rocks are, and corralled before the onset of winter.  It is connected to Roughting Linn, for example, by an ancient trackway.    The Milfield South Henge, however, has been extensively excavated, where Professor Harding found a segmented and flat-bottomed ditch with a single entrance that surrounded a deep pit in the west-centre part.  It appeared as a dark patch 3.60 x 3.20m, which excavation proved to have been dug originally with a rectangular stone setting at the bottom.  Inside was a cup-marked stone and burnt material placed in position at a date in the early Bronze Age.  Then a large post was inserted, not to the bottom of the stone setting, and big stones were used to pack it.  The post was later removed, and the pit slumped in.    It is not known what the pit was used for.  The marked sandstone was 0.33 x 0.27m, and 0.11m. Thick.  The cup was 45-50mm. In diameter and 20mm. Deep, pecked into the surface at one end.

682,10011,"David Griggs reported a marked rock in a stone heap, a small boulder with a countersunk cup from which a groove ran, surrounded by a ring; there was another cup on the surface. We arranged for a team to excavate the mound (1975), hoping that a context might be available for the rock art. The mound turned out to be little more than a heap of field clearance stones riddled with rabbit holes, and underneath it was a warren. An examination of the area adjoining the heap indicated that there might be a low-walled stone enclosure.    A search of the moor and the excavation of two other mounds revealed that one was also field clearance, but that the other, with its tell-tale depression on the top, was a disturbed burial cairn that stood on the ridge overlooking Ellingham and Tynely to the North Sea. The burial cairn had been dug from the top through its centre to the cist below: this was an oval-shape of small vertically placed stones the centre of which had been dug, leaving a depression suspiciously in the shape of a pot at one end. Each stone of the cairn was cleaned to see if there were any markings; there were not. At the farmer?s request we re-established the cairn to its former profile, but left the centre open with the cist filled with gravel to stabilise and protect it."

683,10011,"When barrow 12 yards x 11 yards, 18 inches high (0.69 x 0.61x 0.43m) was excavated, two marked rocks were discovered.  The barrow had two cists, the primary oval one being dug into the base rock. The cist was empty. A secondary cist, very close by, rested on the base shale, and measured 2?3? x 2? x 17? deep (11x 10.06 x 0.46m). The floor was roughly paved. At the time it was reported:    Only the side and end stones of the cist remain, and on the centre of the inner face of the southern side stone is a fine cup mark 1? ? diameter and ??deep (0.013, 0.019m). This cup-marked is Ouston, Pike Hill b.     Three feet away from this disturbed cist lay what was probably the cist cover, described as an irregular heart--shaped rock 24? x 21? x 5? (0.61 x 0.53 x 0.13m). The design was:    an irregular trapezoid with a cup at each angle, and two cup marks are outside the figure but have no apparent relationship to it. The markings are well and deeply cut and in some places show the rough pick marks of the first operation of incision but are generally smoothed by grinding. This cup-marked rock is Ouston, Pike Hill a.    The description shows that the design on the cist cover was probably facing into the cist. What is on the stone does not quite tally with the description, for the pick marks show no signs of being smoothed. The motifs on this stone are clearly made to fit the shape and size of the stone. They are pristine, and therefore the rock has not been exposed to any erosion (i.e. it was buried). The location suggests that it was specifically made for the cist of an early Bronze Age burial. Because it does not have concentric circles this does not make the design ?simple?. There are four deeply pecked cups that form a square. They are linked by wide, pecked, straight grooves on three sides and the fourth b y a slightly curved groove. The interior of this motif appears as a square with rounded corners. In a Dod law context this would be an unusual design; a deep cup lies between a corner cup and the edge, with very faint pecking that may have been intended to link the two. There are pick marks between the central motif and the edge, including two faint cups. On the other side there is a long groove and a large cup, with more scattered faint pick marks. The quality of the pecking is outstanding."

The stone has disappeared, and conversation with Mr J Curry the farmer at Overdean confirms that it has probably been broken up and used for building. He had no idea that it was there.     In November 1994, as soon as I heard of this, I examine the whole trackway.

705,10011,"In February 1973 a group of students from Alnwick College of Education, based at the castle, had asked me to take them to see some rock art. Their main course disciplines were different. When we were about to leave the site after looking at the North Plantation rocks when light snow began to fall, Murray Chisholm, a music student, called us back as we went to the minibus. He had noticed a large cup on a rock among dead bracken. This turned out to be the most southerly of a series of rock motifs that covered a whole spine of outcrop rock.    With Lance Strother?s permission we returned, fully equipped, to see if any more rock art was hidden in the dead bracken; this proved to be so on the edges of the outcrop. A mound on the outcrop hinted at something else, so a 26m datum line was established along the length of the outcrop and trenches laid out parallel to it and at right angles. A careful systematic clearance of vegetation revealed piles of cobblestones on top, thinning out to the south. These were drawn and a pattern established where the mound was in the scatter. It had a double kerb and sat on top of the outcrop. The kerb was constructed by laying the two arcs of cobbles and packing the space between them with smaller stones. Cobbles were mostly used, but there was a small arc of pink igneous rock that had presumably been brought to the area originally by ice. A prominent feature of the inner kerb was an upright regular sandstone slab with two cups like eyes looking to the north.    As each cobblestone was cleaned as it emerged, some were found to have motifs pecked into them, mainly with simple cups but others more elaborately. There was sufficient of the mound intact to establish that it was not a field clearance heap, and that the motifs on the cobbles echoed those on the outcrop. The scale of this was unprecedented.    The northern part of the site was more confusing, and a large hollow with an edge of stone at first appeared to be an enclosure. It turned out to be a small quarry. The freestone here splits vertically and horizontally, producing good building blocks, until a floor is reached. This quarry could have removed decorated rock. There were many small slabs and cobbles of the type normally picked up during field clearance that may have been thrown to one side so the quarrymen could get at the good rock surface. They were in lines immediately at the western edge of the working. It is possible that other cairns were demolished in this clearing process. There was less disturbance to the south, though there had been trees there. The whole area is surrounded by magnificent old beech trees, and the planting of these would have caused disturbance. To the east is a large circular hollow that we investigated; it proved to be another of these quarries also seen on Weetwood Moor. The logic seemed to be to locate a good edge of freestone, then exploit it forward and sideways. It is possible to mistake such hollows as settlement sites; it is also possible to mistake limited rectangular stone extraction for a cist.    A profile cross-section of the site shows that there was a very thin layer of sand above the outcrop beneath the cobbles of the mound; in this was the only artefact: a sealed in worked flint that could be used as a scraper of knife and belong to the Neolithic-early Bronze Age period. There was no evidence of any time gap between the mound and the marking of the outcrop, and the thin sand was sterile. The stones of the mound and other scattered stones were from 10-40 cm long, mostly sandstone, with the odd volcanic erratic.     The most important feature of this site is the distribution of marked cobbles. Not only did they form part of the mound, but four kerbstones were cup marked and have been left buried in situ. The rest have been removed to the Museum of Antiquities except for Fowberry Excavation site - Cairn n, which is at Berwick Museum, and Fowberry Excavation site - Cairn r , which could not be relocated during the project.    The decoration on the removed cobbles  varies from simple cups to a complex cup-penannular-radiate design. This complex design was on a cobble found south of the projected south edge of the outer kerb ? unless the mound was longer along its north-south axis, which we don?t know because there was only a light scatter of stone there and more possibility that the outcrop had been cleared of any covering stone. For anyone trying to peck a cup into a cobble, the danger is that the rock will split with the force of the blow. It takes skill."

706,10011,"Overlooking the coast north of Alnmouth village is a flat-topped hill with a triangulation pillar, north of which runs a boundary wall in part obscured by high bracken, gorse and hawthorn. It is capped by a fence; where the middle section of the wall has been broken down it is replaced entirely by a fence. The base of the wall appears much older than that built of regularly-shaped, quarried ashlar blocks of maroon coloured sandstone. Approximately thirty of the wall blocks, some in situ, others fallen, are cup marked. Some of the cups appear in a rosette form. There is light packing on one fallen stone. I have recorded only thirty of the stones, as the wall would have to be cleared to reach the others satisfactorily.    The origin of the stone blocks is a most certainly outcrop. As most of the boundary walls are built largely of this stone, the surface of the outcrop must have been extensive, and as some of the blocks have cupmarks on two faces, part of the original outcrop had an edge.    It is not unusual to find cups and cup and ring marked stones in walls; what is different here is that they rarely represent such an extensive expanse of rock, and are so varied in depth and size. Neither is it unusual to find outcrops on which the predominant or exclusive motifs are cups.     The credit for these discoveries belongs to Mrs Gladys Bettess during her archaeological landscape survey of Alnmouth."

The site contained four cists, six unburnt and three burnt bodies, with food vessel pottery of a very attractive type.    The site was exposed by ploughing up a cist in the last century. Canon Greenwell discovered that there had been a cairn on the site that had been demolished to help build a field wall. The cists were close to the surface, but had been formed in pits dug below the natural level of the field. The cist that had the motif had a food vessel in its south west corner. He did not include a picture of this food vessel, but drew one from the burial area that was almost identical. There is now nothing to be seen at the site.    We cannot assume that the motif was put onto the rock at the time of burial; had it been, the date would make it early Bronze Age.

711,2,"Found on Beanley Moor, although the exact location is not known.    Rock art panels in the area are a mixture of in situ and re-located examples. Iron Age and Romano-British activities may account for the positioning, or more accurately the clearance of panels. Two such panels are noted in the traces of an enclosure wall.   The Iron Age hillfort, The Ringses, dominates the surrounding area, and this may have been responsible for the creation of the field boundaries akin to those at Lordenshaw.  More recent field clearance is also partially responsible for the movement of some panels; many small clearance cairns are recorded near the Romano-British settlement and field system, and these also incorporate rock art.  Widespread Medieval and Post Medieval quarrying, including that for millstones, may have also destroyed rock art panels.    Whilst the original locationsof some examples cannot be fully determined, there is sufficient situ rock art present to observe a trend similar to other rock art locations: on valley lips or hillside locations with wide views over surrounding low-lying ground.  Here the low-lying ground is mainly marshy and wetlands.  Distant views are obtained to other rock art areas on surrounding higher ground, and no locations appear to be deep within the Beanley-Hunterheugh island of higher ground.  The peripheral nature of the rock art to this island of higher ground is shared by further panels at Hunterheugh."

711,5,"Peck marks visible in most motifs, including an area of what appears to be random pecking."
711,1,"This carved stone was found by workmen in 1864, in an area west of The Ringses on Beanley Moor. There are five cups, three of which have multiple rings, penannulars or a mixture. A U-shaped groove runs round the outer edge and three linear grooves lead from the cups with rings / penannulars.    In detail the motifs include: a cup with four rings, only one of which is complete, the three others stop at a linear groove which runs from the outer ring through the cup and towards the stone?s centre, a further groove leads from the outer ring, curves round the stones edge creating a U-shape, almost enclosing the other motifs. A number of small peck mark size depressions between the three outer rings could be the start of another groove, but could equally just be natural. Towards the stones middle, is a cup surrounded by two penannulars and a complete ring, with the outer complete ring resting on the linear groove emanating from the previous motif. The inner penannulars may have been complete rings originally, but an area of what looks to be random pecking obscures detail. A linear groove also leads out of the central cup here, out towards the stones edge cutting through the outer U-shaped groove. A smaller motif consisting of a cup with a groove surrounded by two penannulars can be seen opposite.     The presence of peck marks within most of the motifs may suggest the stone was covered not long after the motifs were carved."
711,10006,"The design makes it one of the finest compositions, as there is clearly a careful use of the shape of the rock surface that partly decided the design.     At the top centre is a cup with four concentric rinds. The cup has a diametric groove that preceded the rings, most of which stop at it; the groove continues down the rock to link up to the left and right with similar motifs; that on the right has a cup with a penannular and two concentric rings, the outer of which joins the outer ring of the central figure. From the cup a groove reaches the end of the slab, cutting through the groove that starts with the outer ring of the central motif, encloses the left hand motif and runs to the right to link up with the third figure. This is a cup and two penannulars, where a groove runs from the cup to meet this curving groove, which in turn curves round to meet the outer penannular.    There is an interesting simple mathematical relationship between the motifs: four, three and two concentric rings around cups. All the figures are deliberately linked, not only from the grooves from their cups but also from the embracing outer grooves."
711,10011,"Found in the area of The Ringses (on Beanley Moor) in 1864, covered with vegetation.    It has always been referred to as a cist cover, without further evidence. The pick marks are still fresh on the slab, suggesting that it has been buried shortly after it was made."

712,2,"Exact find location not known.    Rock art panels in the area are a mixture of in situ and re-located examples. Iron Age and Romano-British activities may account for the positioning, or more accurately the clearance of panels. Two such panels are noted in the traces of an enclosure wall.   The Iron Age hillfort, The Ringses, dominates the surrounding area, and this may have been responsible for the creation of the field boundaries akin to those at Lordenshaw.  More recent field clearance is also partially responsible for the movement of some panels; many small clearance cairns are recorded near the Romano-British settlement and field system, and these also incorporate rock art.  Widespread Medieval and Post Medieval quarrying, including that for millstones, may have also destroyed rock art panels.    Whilst the original locationsof some examples cannot be fully determined, there is sufficient situ rock art present to observe a trend similar to other rock art locations: on valley lips or hillside locations with wide views over surrounding low-lying ground.  Here the low-lying ground is mainly marshy and wetlands.  Distant views are obtained to other rock art areas on surrounding higher ground, and no locations appear to be deep within the Beanley-Hunterheugh island of higher ground.  The peripheral nature of the rock art to this island of higher ground is shared by further panels at Hunterheugh."

The stone is extremely friable and sand grains can be seen in the bottom of most cups, whether this accounts for the depths of some is open to question. Peck marks may also be present, but these small indentations may be the result of pitting due to the stones friability.    A flat triangular stone with several circular artificial holes was initially recorded at NY9826764830, some 18 metres east-south-east.

716,10011,"The ridge on which the church of St John Lee stands is a terrace of the River Tyne on the opposite bank from Hexham. The ridge has been ploughed for arable farming, which may have destroyed monuments; nearby quarries at the junction of the two rivers to the west have destroyed early Bronze Age graves. The ridge is an important landscape feature, high above the floodplain, and under some large beech trees close to the church a lady out walking her dog noticed that among field clearance under them was a marked slab. The slab from there is now in the church, thanks to the action of the PCC.     I (Stan Beckensall) had recorded it in situ, and noted that there were chain marks around it where it had been dragged from the field to join a pile of stone, some cobbles. It was not in its original place; despite the battering it had received from machinery, the motifs were clear. The slab is now displayed in the church between the font and a Roman altar.    It is likely that this well-designed pattern could have been purpose-made for a cist, but we can?t say for certain. It does fill the slab very well and the design appears complete."

724,2,"This area extends from the flanks of Doddington Moor/Dod Law as moorland, arable and pasture farmland and plantations.  It is largely flat, ending with steep western and southern slopes down to the Till.  It is based on a low Fell Sandstone Group terrace, which occasionally outcrops in the western slopes.  There are craggy portions across the area with steep, localized, slopes.  Slopes to the east are generally gentler, extending eastwards to Buttony.    From the plateau edges wide views can be obtained in a variety of directions to the distant Cheviot Hills and other Fell Sandstone Group areas, and over and along the Till valley.  This includes some rock art areas, such as the north of Weetwood Moor and the main Chatton Park-Old Bewick ridge.  The crags and rising ground of Doddington Moor/Dod Law prevent an all-round view of distant areas.    The gentle slopes have allowed Post Medieval ploughing of the ground to be undertaken with disturbance and destruction of archaeological monuments.  A few monuments contemporary with the rock art panels of the Neolithic/Early Bronze Age have been recorded.  These include Cuddie?s Cave rock shelter on the western flanks of Gled Law from which rock art has been recorded, as well as barrows and cairns with grave goods and others which are possibly related to agricultural clearance.  These were discovered in the 19th century, as ploughing started on the flatter portions of the area.    The steep slopes have escaped the ploughing and a number of monuments have been recorded.  These enclosures and settlements are thought to date from the Bronze Age onwards, or the later prehistoric periods, remaining as earthworks.  Ridge and furrow also survives in places with Post Medieval field banks."

724,10011,"Gled Law is the continuation of the Dod Law scarp SW, with a similar view across the Till valley to the west, and sight of the river as it breaks through the scarp from the east to Weetwood Bridge.  It is divided from the Buttony sites to the east by a small stream and valley.    Although motifs on it have disappeared, George Tate (1865) has left an account and drawings of them.  He says, ""On the scalp of the rock where it dips into the hill, four figures are traceable; but from being very much defaced, it is difficult to make out these forms, even when viewed under a favourable light"". The figures that he draws are a cup and ring, a cup, ring, a second interrupted ring from which curved grooves extend, a cup and three concentric rings, and a cup and two concentric rings.  On the perpendicular western face he found and drew some other designs which are not of the same type; he thought them more likely to be medieval. The importance of this place therefore continued, and from it the Milfield Plain and Cheviots are viewed.    The landscape has changed since then, in that some monuments have been cleared away.  The most recent disturbance is the laying of a gas pipeline.  The ritual significance of the area is suggested by reports of burials.    At NU 00570 30620 (Mill Lands), W Procter reported that "" In 1867 a cist was uncovered by the plough in a field near this (Gled Law) quite close to 'Cuddy's Cove'.  Greenwell wrote, ""The cist was found on June 21, 1867, in a sandy knoll rising from the River Till and in close proximity to one of the rocks engraved with the circular markings"".  This has gone.    Davison and Davison (1935-6) said that ""evidence still exists to show that Gled Law was used for burial purposes.  It would be interesting to excavate at least two of the large mounds on the hill, either of which may be a barrow.""    It is likely that more archaeology has been destroyed or covered over.  For example, Mr Davison also recorded ""One cup with a faintly discernible ring"" where it is now pasture.    Mr. Tate reported that by 1868 ""seven groups of inscriptions have recently been discovered.  In this assemblage of sculptures, there are traceable thirty-six figures, mostly typical forms; yet in some cases, so varied and combined, as to present new figures.""  Plate V shows them, drawn from rubbings made by Mr. William Procter, Jnr.  Mr. Bruce also drew some of them.    The figures on Gled Law Site 2a in my illustration, with its three radial grooves, was discovered by Mrs. Procter.  Mr. Tate says, "" The whole of these sculptures were rudely formed, the incisions are shallow, and the tool marks distinct; the circles are irregular and had evidently been drawn without instrumental aid.""  He also noted that, ""About fifty yards from these sculptures, Mr. Procter has recently discovered the fragments of a sepulchral urn of the ordinary ancient British type.""  His observations on how the motifs were made suggests that the rocks had been covered over for some time, leaving the motifs more or less in their pristine state.  What Mr. Tate considered ""rudely formed"" means that no attempt had been made to deepen or smooth the cups and grooves; they were left with the pick marks clear."

725,10011,"This site was found after other marked rocks had been recorded by M. Van Hoek, and we found a marked boulder nearby.    The site was an old walled coppice, west of the road from Clavering. On outcrop is a cup and serpentine duct, with an incomplete inner circle and an outer angular groove, roughly concentric to it.    A plough-scarred boulder close by, discovered by us, has a large cup, an arc, and some other possible cups and grooves.      The rest of the marked rocks lie on a raised, slightly-sloping plateau of rock flanked by pasture, a public footpath, and a cairn, to the S and SW.  The outcrops, many ridged and twisted during deposition, are very close to the surface, and on the edges they have been quarried.  The hill has extensive views over many kilometres that do not extend to the north edge of the Weetwood-Clavering scarp, but take in all the scarp edge sites from Gled Law, Buttony, Chatton Park Hill, Old Bewick, and onward to Alnwick.  Most of the major rock art sites are intervisible.  Mr. G. Tate (1865) refers to these sites as Whitsunbank, but this is not the correct name.  He refers to it as "" a lofty hill commanding an extensive view over the district"" where there were "" eight different inscribed stones, all of which were discovered by my friend Mr. William Wightman and myself... Thirty -two figures are traceable on these rocks.?    He describes and illustrates them.  He also lists "" A loose stone (now in my possession) with a figure of four incomplete concentric circles, the cup and radial line, and with two other round hollows connected with the two outer circles....found among a heap of stones on the Coldmartin grounds ( Plate XI., fig. 3 ).  Probably it had formed part of a cist-vaen.""    This is not a very high tally, compared with what we have discovered and recorded since, and there may have more a deeper vegetation cover in the 1860's."

725,2,"This area is a low Fell Sandstone Group block that rises from east to west.  Rock art panels are found along a slightly elevated ridge, rising generally with the trend, but with slight slopes to the north and south.  Much bedrock is exposed on the ridge top, with low natural and, where quarried, higher crags along the flanks.  The area is mainly rough grazing and moorland, bounded by stonewalls and fences, separated from improved and cleared grasslands for stock and gamebird plantations.    Wide views can be obtained from the rock art locations.  However, in places the adjacent rising ground of the higher Whitsun Bank and Coldmartin areas prevents distant views.  The Cheviot and Fell Sandstone Hills distantly ring the site to the west, north and east with other rock art areas visible, such as Doddington Moor/Dod Law, Gled Law, Buttony and Horton areas, as well as the main Fell Sandstone Group arc.  The more elevated portions of this area overlook the Milfield Basin and River Till lowland areas.    Other prehistoric monuments in the area includes two funerary cairns. One of these, Weetwood Cairn, on the southern flanks of the ridge incorporates further panels, though it is not clear whether this was constructed contemporary with the creation of the rock art.  The other cairn is in the west moorland area.  A pair of stones, previously thought standing stones, have been discounted in previous reconnaissance of the area.  There are no later prehistoric monuments in the immediate area, though a series of settlements is known nearby.    Post Medieval activity has, however, taken place.  Much evidence of quarrying is present with many ?steps?, and sheer and sharp edges of remaining rock at the east of the ridge.  A stonewalled enclosure has been recorded in the western part of the area, continuing into the adjacent plantation.  These constructions, together with the adjacent stonewalls, and clearance of the lower slopes and surrounding fields, may have destrroyed other prehistoric monuments and rock art panels.  A number of modern walker?s cairns are located beside some of the rock art panels."

From sketches this is a very small cobble, about 0.10 m in diameter, with a single cup mark on each opposing face. It is similar to many others deposited in burial cairns (Weetwood, Fowberry, Chatton Sandyford). There are indications that the depressions were likely to be from an implement (by boring through).    Information from Durham University comment ""A possible loom weight, a small water-worn andesite pebble, into which  a circular cup depression has been drilled out on either side, exactly opposite each other. This does not go all the way through, creating an hour-glass profile. The cups have identical dimensions. Made of pink andesite. Perhaps it is unfinished.

A small pond is approx 6 m to the north east and Amerside Law 3b (ERA 200) is 1 m south west, Amerside Law 1 (ERA 202) is 640 m south west and Amerside Law 4 / 2 (ERA 198 and 771) are 440 m north west.    This area projects forward out of the main Fell Sandstone Group ridge to the west almost peninsular-like, roughly flat-topped with steep slopes to the north, west and south with the rock art panels found above the slopes.  The ground falls away more gently to the east, before rising to the main ridge.  An established evergreen plantation covers the whole area.    The present state of vegetation precludes much comment about the views from the site, however, it might be supposed the views obtained  if the trees were cleared would be similar to Chatton Park Hill main panel group.  With views to and along the main ridge, as well as across the Till Valley to other Cheviot and Fell Sandstone Group Hills, including the rock art areas, such as ?Chatton Park, Old Bewick and Simonside on the main ridge, and the Titlington, Hunterheugh and ?Midstead islands.  For the northern and southern panels views might also go back to the main Fell Sandstone Group ridge to the northeast and southeast respectively, and portions of the Cheviots though hindered across the peninsular itself.    No other archaeological monuments contemporary with the rock art have been recorded nearby.

730,1,"An exposed area of bedrock, in a clearing within the larch plantation.     Motifs consist of a rectangular groove (0.66 x 0.5 m) enclosing an almost square groove, which is truncated by a lower bedding plane on the north east corner. Within the square, are four clear cups which look to be joined by grooving forming a ?tree of life? pattern connected to the square, although this area is heavily weathered and the exact motif is difficult to make out. Between the square and outer rectangular groove are two possible cups, with one in the north west corner being more likely to be artificial. Outside the rectangular groove towards the north east corner, is an ovoid depression which has formed through natural pitting.     The position of the carving across two bedding layers is intriguing, especially when you consider a completely flat, adequately sized ?canvas? is immediately one meter north. Whether this area was exposed during the time of carving is open to question.     There are some similarities between this carving and Chatton 2 (ERA 118) 2 kms to the north.      Due to tree coverage the exact viewshed from the panel cannot be gauged, but Ros Castle will undoubtedly be prominent to the south and possibly the peaks of the Cheviots to the west.

731,10004,"When in March 1970 a field between Beadnell and Seahouses was developed as a caravan park, mechanical excavators disturbed and later destroyed two burial mounds.  The first was 315 yards south of Linkhouse Cottage, opposite an inlet called Collith Hole, west of the main road.  It had a large cobble kerb around a mound of beach pebbles.    The second mound, 25 yards further north, was 19' diameter and 4' high, with large cobbles as kerbstones.  Inside was a stone cist that had later been enlarged to make another.  There were many bones of 19 people, one with a penannular brooch that dates the enlargement to iron age or Romano - British times. The original burial contained a piece of sandstone 38cm X 36cm which had 26 small cups and a small cup joined to a large one.  The stone had been broken.    Was the insertion of the slab its re-use as building material or of symbolic significance, or both?"

Undertaken by the Northumberland National Park, the University of Durham and the Northumberland Archaeological Group. It is ambitious and exciting investigation of a large sweep of landscape. The cairn was one of two that did not show up before the excavation. The south cairn was a rare ?tri-radial? type, with cremation burials of the ?food vessel? type; one cist had been emptied of its food vessel and bones and an iron spearhead replaced it.    The north cairn, built on an artificial platform that had flint artefacts from the Middle Stone Age onward contained at least seventeen cremation burials and some food vessels. The large cist at the centre of this mound had a food vessel and beads, accompanying the cremated remains of at least two people but the pit filling around the cist included two small cup marked stones (Turf Knowe b and c) and a saddle quern set on its edge. Another possible cup mark was found on the edge of the capstone (Turf Knowe a) . The cups do not amount to much, but it is important to note that they are there."

Striations run north to south aross the rock revealing large grains, this suggests the striations are more likely to be erosion than glacial, with weathering weakening the stones natural cement. The cups may be part of the erosion process due to their positioning within the large grain area. However, the pattern looks deliberate and the presence of prehistoric settlement and definite rock art displaying similar cups with rings a few hundred meters south would suggest that they?re probably artificial.

At the south end, the stone is heavily lichen encrusted and only one cup in this area appears to have a ring. At the north end, the majority of cups have rings or partial rings and tooling marks are present in most motifs, suggesting this end at least, has been covered for millennia.     Within 30 metres north, three cairns of varying size can be found, the sloping carved surface looks towards this area. Evidence of possible cord rigg 40 metres west and also piles of clearance stone mean the area was cultivated in the later prehistoric. Interestingly, this particular carving appears to be the only visible boulder amongst the tussocky grass, which hasn?t been moved into field clearance. Does this ?non clearance? hint at the carving and nearby cairns being significant to later Iron Age / Romano-British farmers, or has it been moved to its present position at a much later date?"
749,2,"This carved stone is sat in a relatively flat area of Hartleyburn Common.     30 m north are three cairns, the largest and most easterly has a 7 m diameter. Directly 25 m west a partially worn track leads north towards the area around The Curricks Camp, with a ditch following it for a short distance on the west side. 20 m further west an elongated bank is surrounded by possible cord rigg, suggesting the bank may be clearance. The cord rigg doesn?t does go beyond the ditch which may indicate it being part of a field system. 300 m north west, substantial banks and ditches belonging to The Curricks Camp Romano-British settlement are still evident.      A quarry and settlement with at least one good example of rock art is 305 m north-north-west. To the south and southwest, are several more examples of settlement and an elaborate carved rock.     Good views east through to west."

The carved surface faces south to the castle gateway and is in a fairly sheltered position and gets the sun.     It was found during excavations of a 14th century hall within the castle.     Motifs consist of two, possibly three single cups and two larger cups with multiple rings, the lower cup has three rings and the higher has two, both the outer rings overlap.  The rings could be penannulars, but they?re extremely faint and difficult to make out. Short radial grooves run from the central cups."

754,1,"This stone was originally found on the shoreline of Holy Island in 2003, and is now in private hands.    The stone looks to be sandstone, although the weight may be more suggestive of a denser material, possibly metamorphic rock. The motifs can be found on the upper surface layer and consists of approx 35 small, shallow, cup-like depression, some of which are irregular in shape.      It is difficult to say with any degree of certainty that the markings are artificial."
755,10011,"The decoration on this kerbstone has not been recorded.    In February 1973 a group of students from Alnwick College of Education, based at the castle, had asked me to take them to see some rock art. Their main course disciplines were different. When we were about to leave the site after looking at the North Plantation rocks when light snow began to fall, Murray Chisholm, a music student, called us back as we went to the minibus. He had noticed a large cup on a rock among dead bracken. This turned out to be the most southerly of a series of rock motifs that covered a whole spine of outcrop rock.    With Lance Strother?s permission we returned, fully equipped, to see if any more rock art was hidden in the dead bracken; this proved to be so on the edges of the outcrop. A mound on the outcrop hinted at something else, so a 26m datum line was established along the length of the outcrop and trenches laid out parallel to it and at right angles. A careful systematic clearance of vegetation revealed piles of cobblestones on top, thinning out to the south. These were drawn and a pattern established where the mound was in the scatter. It had a double kerb and sat on top of the outcrop. The kerb was constructed by laying the two arcs of cobbles and packing the space between them with smaller stones. Cobbles were mostly used, but there was a small arc of pink igneous rock that had presumably been brought to the area originally by ice. A prominent feature of the inner kerb was an upright regular sandstone slab with two cups like eyes looking to the north.    As each cobblestone was cleaned as it emerged, some were found to have motifs pecked into them, mainly with simple cups but others more elaborately. There was sufficient of the mound intact to establish that it was not a field clearance heap, and that the motifs on the cobbles echoed those on the outcrop. The scale of this was unprecedented.    The northern part of the site was more confusing, and a large hollow with an edge of stone at first appeared to be an enclosure. It turned out to be a small quarry. The freestone here splits vertically and horizontally, producing good building blocks, until a floor is reached. This quarry could have removed decorated rock. There were many small slabs and cobbles of the type normally picked up during field clearance that may have been thrown to one side so the quarrymen could get at the good rock surface. They were in lines immediately at the western edge of the working. It is possible that other cairns were demolished in this clearing process. There was less disturbance to the south, though there had been trees there. The whole area is surrounded by magnificent old beech trees, and the planting of these would have caused disturbance. To the east is a large circular hollow that we investigated; it proved to be another of these quarries also seen on Weetwood Moor. The logic seemed to be to locate a good edge of freestone, then exploit it forward and sideways. It is possible to mistake such hollows as settlement sites; it is also possible to mistake limited rectangular stone extraction for a cist.    A profile cross-section of the site shows that there was a very thin layer of sand above the outcrop beneath the cobbles of the mound; in this was the only artefact: a sealed in worked flint that could be used as a scraper of knife and belong to the Neolithic-early Bronze Age period. There was no evidence of any time gap between the mound and the marking of the outcrop, and the thin sand was sterile. The stones of the mound and other scattered stones were from 10-40 cm long, mostly sandstone, with the odd volcanic erratic.     The most important feature of this site is the distribution of marked cobbles. Not only did they form part of the mound, but four kerbstones were cup marked and have been left buried in situ. The rest have been removed to the Museum of Antiquities except for Fowberry Excavation site - Cairn n, which is at Berwick Museum, and Fowberry Excavation site - Cairn r , which could not be relocated during the project.    The decoration on the removed cobbles  varies from simple cups to a complex cup-penannular-radiate design. This complex design was on a cobble found south of the projected south edge of the outer kerb ? unless the mound was longer along its north-south axis, which we don?t know because there was only a light scatter of stone there and more possibility that the outcrop had been cleared of any covering stone.

759,2,"This area can be defined as the southeastern slopes from the Doddington Moor and Gled Law plateaux to the River Till and the stream behind Hetton.  The gentle slopes are mainly improved grassland and evergreen plantations used for the rearing of stock and gamebirds respectively.  Scattered outcrops are present throughout these slopes, often with dumped stones from the surrounding fields and gorse bushes in elevated areas.  Little now remains of monuments contemporary with the creation of the rock art panels here, though these have been recorded, as have some finds, in the course of agricultural activities.    The slopes give good views from the elevated high ground across the Till Valley and its tributary the Hetton Burn.  The rock art panels are found down the valley sides, so a variety of levels of view are obtained, but a spur of land prevents views to other areas in the lower areas.  The Till Valley changes course below these panels, from south to the west, as it skirts around the Gled Law/Doddington Moor area.     There are no associated monuments contemporary with the rock carvings in this area.  The nearest such monument is a stone circle at Doddington Moor.  There has been widespread agricultural improvement and plantations of the surrounding ground.  This has resulted in the destruction of a later prehistoric unenclosed settlement, possibly Bronze Age, and led to the discovery of several prehistoric flint artefacts.  Several loose stone scatters are noted in the nearby field edges as modern clearance cairns.  The good views from elevated parts of the area are indicated by the presence of  a number of World War 2 pillboxes."

760,10011,"By chance, I (Stan Beckensall) was living nearby when the land around the Weetwood sites was bulldozed and cleared of heather and stone, ready for grass planting.  I had seen the low mound between the public path and the road, with a large stone projecting on the south side with two apparently natural cups on top.  The low mound, no higher than the large stone, oval in shape, had not been recorded, and had presumably gone unnoticed when permission was given for the field clearance to go ahead in May, 1982.    Boulders were removed from the area, and dumped beside the public footpath and at the edge of the outcrop hill, where some remain.  The mound was bulldozed, and the large stone lifted and dumped with other clearance, north of the footpath.  It was then that I saw the large stone, with its remarkable pattern of cup, concentric rings, and radial grooves.  The shallow hole from which it had been taken was just about visible in disturbed soil.  The farmer, David Murray, not only agreed to halt work at my (unofficial) request, but got his men to search the area for more decorated cobbles.  He also agreed to my excavating the site, and to its reinstatement after excavation.  He saved all the cobbles in a heap that had been removed from the site of the mound.    An examination of sparse documentation revealed that Canon Greenwell had investigated six possible burial cairns, two of which had cists with no bodies remaining.  These did not have precise locations, and only one is still visible, outside the area of rock art on the public footpath leading west from site 6.  I regarded the bulldozed site as a possible burial cairn, and set out my excavation grid in an area surrounded by recent ploughing.  Field walking in the disturbed ground did not produce any flints or other artefacts.    About three-quarters of the mound had been bulldozed away, and what was left was carefully trowelled to base.  At the same time, marked cobbles were being recovered and saved.      A team of eight people was involved in the excavation and recording.  Every stone left at base level in situ was recorded, and the area carefully examined for evidence of burial (a cist pit, for example).  There were no signs of burial.    The natural base of the field had a compact pebble layer, and the soil among the stones included pebbles.  Most of the cairn stones were of the cobble type, rounded, and they included volcanic rock brought down by ice.  The stones left in situ were not quarried, but were of the type found on the surface during clearance.  Only one edge of the oval-shaped mound retained any kind of integrity.  There was no kerb of larger stones, but the periphery was made up of cobbles, with the exception of the large, rounded sandstone boulder the motifs of which originally faced inward.  Its base was flat and had been sunk in a shallow hole, its flat base giving it sufficient stability to stand upright.    The drawing shows the disposition of the undisturbed stones in the mound, but there was nothing more to report other than the extraordinary number of marked cobbles found in the mound's structure.  21 were found in situ, mostly face-down.  I had found 4 in the spoil heaps before the excavation began, and the rest of the 'loose' marked stones were picked up by the farmers.  All the marked stones were sandstones, and no markings were found on volcanic rocks.    It was impossible to distinguish between recent and ancient disturbance at the centre of the mound, and there was no sign of a cist pit.  Had the mound been built over a body, there would be no survival.  There was no evidence of cremated remains or burning.    The large marked boulder could have been on the site as a standing stone, and the oval mound constructed with it as a kerb marker.  The fact that the motifs face into the mound and were not meant to be seen is important.  Even as a standing stone it is unlikely that its pattern would have faced north, for it was more likely to be viewed on the approach to the panels of rock art on the hill to the north.  The deliberate obscuring of uneroded motifs means that the motifs were a private and not a public gesture - not meant to be seen- and more concerned with the dead than the living.  They are different in concept from motifs in the landscape: it is as though they have been deliberately turned into the earth instead of facing the sky, and therefore more concerned with the dead than the living.  Even though the mound may not have been used either primarily or exclusively as a burial, it had an important ritual function in the landscape.  It does not lie among the markings on the hill, but stands on the edge of the concentration.    The placing of marked cobbles in a mound, a deliberate, calculated placement in the case of those turned face down, makes nonsense of the idea that they just happened to be a convenient building material lying around.  The cobbles had been selected for size, shape, and surface area, probably held on the lap, and chipped with a hard stone tool to produce cups and grooves.  All these pick marks are visible and uneroded, and some are marked on two sides.

761,10011,"By chance, I (Stan Beckensall) was living nearby when the land around the Weetwood sites was bulldozed and cleared of heather and stone, ready for grass planting.  I had seen the low mound between the public path and the road, with a large stone projecting on the south side with two apparently natural cups on top.  The low mound, no higher than the large stone, oval in shape, had not been recorded, and had presumably gone unnoticed when permission was given for the field clearance to go ahead in May, 1982.    Boulders were removed from the area, and dumped beside the public footpath and at the edge of the outcrop hill, where some remain.  The mound was bulldozed, and the large stone lifted and dumped with other clearance, north of the footpath.  It was then that I saw the large stone, with its remarkable pattern of cup, concentric rings, and radial grooves.  The shallow hole from which it had been taken was just about visible in disturbed soil.  The farmer, David Murray, not only agreed to halt work at my (unofficial) request, but got his men to search the area for more decorated cobbles.  He also agreed to my excavating the site, and to its reinstatement after excavation.  He saved all the cobbles in a heap that had been removed from the site of the mound.    An examination of sparse documentation revealed that Canon Greenwell had investigated six possible burial cairns, two of which had cists with no bodies remaining.  These did not have precise locations, and only one is still visible, outside the area of rock art on the public footpath leading west from site 6.  I regarded the bulldozed site as a possible burial cairn, and set out my excavation grid in an area surrounded by recent ploughing.  Field walking in the disturbed ground did not produce any flints or other artefacts.    About three-quarters of the mound had been bulldozed away, and what was left was carefully trowelled to base.  At the same time, marked cobbles were being recovered and saved.      A team of eight people was involved in the excavation and recording.  Every stone left at base level in situ was recorded, and the area carefully examined for evidence of burial (a cist pit, for example).  There were no signs of burial.    The natural base of the field had a compact pebble layer, and the soil among the stones included pebbles.  Most of the cairn stones were of the cobble type, rounded, and they included volcanic rock brought down by ice.  The stones left in situ were not quarried, but were of the type found on the surface during clearance.  Only one edge of the oval-shaped mound retained any kind of integrity.  There was no kerb of larger stones, but the periphery was made up of cobbles, with the exception of the large, rounded sandstone boulder the motifs of which originally faced inward.  Its base was flat and had been sunk in a shallow hole, its flat base giving it sufficient stability to stand upright.    The drawing shows the disposition of the undisturbed stones in the mound, but there was nothing more to report other than the extraordinary number of marked cobbles found in the mound's structure.  21 were found in situ, mostly face-down.  I had found 4 in the spoil heaps before the excavation began, and the rest of the 'loose' marked stones were picked up by the farmers.  All the marked stones were sandstones, and no markings were found on volcanic rocks.    It was impossible to distinguish between recent and ancient disturbance at the centre of the mound, and there was no sign of a cist pit.  Had the mound been built over a body, there would be no survival.  There was no evidence of cremated remains or burning.    The large marked boulder could have been on the site as a standing stone, and the oval mound constructed with it as a kerb marker.  The fact that the motifs face into the mound and were not meant to be seen is important.  Even as a standing stone it is unlikely that its pattern would have faced north, for it was more likely to be viewed on the approach to the panels of rock art on the hill to the north.  The deliberate obscuring of uneroded motifs means that the motifs were a private and not a public gesture - not meant to be seen- and more concerned with the dead than the living.  They are different in concept from motifs in the landscape: it is as though they have been deliberately turned into the earth instead of facing the sky, and therefore more concerned with the dead than the living.  Even though the mound may not have been used either primarily or exclusively as a burial, it had an important ritual function in the landscape.  It does not lie among the markings on the hill, but stands on the edge of the concentration.    The placing of marked cobbles in a mound, a deliberate, calculated placement in the case of those turned face down, makes nonsense of the idea that they just happened to be a convenient building material lying around.  The cobbles had been selected for size, shape, and surface area, probably held on the lap, and chipped with a hard stone tool to produce cups and grooves.  All these pick marks are visible and uneroded, and some are marked on two sides.  Not all the motifs are completed, and it seems that the act of putting some basic symbols on the rocks was sufficient for the ritual purpose.    The presentation of the mound as an oval shape is largely conjectural, but it has the effect of allowing us to gather the loose stones together in one place, and of highlighting the position of the standing kerb stone.

I had found 4 in the spoil heaps before the excavation began, and the rest of the 'loose' marked stones were picked up by the farmers.  All the marked stones were sandstones, and no markings were found on volcanic rocks.    It was impossible to distinguish between recent and ancient disturbance at the centre of the mound, and there was no sign of a cist pit.  Had the mound been built over a body, there would be no survival.  There was no evidence of cremated remains or burning.    The large marked boulder could have been on the site as a standing stone, and the oval mound constructed with it as a kerb marker.  The fact that the motifs face into the mound and were not meant to be seen is important.  Even as a standing stone it is unlikely that its pattern would have faced north, for it was more likely to be viewed on the approach to the panels of rock art on the hill to the north.  The deliberate obscuring of uneroded motifs means that the motifs were a private and not a public gesture - not meant to be seen- and more concerned with the dead than the living.  They are different in concept from motifs in the landscape: it is as though they have been deliberately turned into the earth instead of facing the sky, and therefore more concerned with the dead than the living.  Even though the mound may not have been used either primarily or exclusively as a burial, it had an important ritual function in the landscape.  It does not lie among the markings on the hill, but stands on the edge of the concentration.    The placing of marked cobbles in a mound, a deliberate, calculated placement in the case of those turned face down, makes nonsense of the idea that they just happened to be a convenient building material lying around.  The cobbles had been selected for size, shape, and surface area, probably held on the lap, and chipped with a hard stone tool to produce cups and grooves.  All these pick marks are visible and uneroded, and some are marked on two sides.  Not all the motifs are completed, and it seems that the act of putting some basic symbols on the rocks was sufficient for the ritual purpose.    The presentation of the mound as an oval shape is largely conjectural, but it has the effect of allowing us to gather the loose stones together in one place, and of highlighting the position of the standing kerb stone.  It will also keep machinery clear of this stone.  Most of the marked cobbles are at Berwick Museum, but one was requested by the Science Museum, London.  One was left, sentimentally, on the mound.    This site, together with the one close by at Fowberry, has given us a new dimension on the use of rock art in monuments.  Mounds incorporating marked cobbles are very rare, but the discovery of similar cobbles in walls and field clearance heaps suggests that other destroyed mounds might have contained them.  When we excavated the massive cairn at Blawearie, we examined every cobble within the mound, and not one was marked. The reason why some mounds were chosen for this ritual is unknown.  One may put forward the idea that the marked cobbles were rather like wreaths at a funeral: that people made them and placed them in the burial mound.    Since the excavation and reinstatement of the mound there have been other finds of small marked cobbles in the area, one of which is at Fowberry Cottage."

765,10011,"By chance, I (Stan Beckensall) was living nearby when the land around the Weetwood sites was bulldozed and cleared of heather and stone, ready for grass planting.  I had seen the low mound between the public path and the road, with a large stone projecting on the south side with two apparently natural cups on top.  The low mound, no higher than the large stone, oval in shape, had not been recorded, and had presumably gone unnoticed when permission was given for the field clearance to go ahead in May, 1982.    Boulders were removed from the area, and dumped beside the public footpath and at the edge of the outcrop hill, where some remain.  The mound was bulldozed, and the large stone lifted and dumped with other clearance, north of the footpath.  It was then that I saw the large stone, with its remarkable pattern of cup, concentric rings, and radial grooves.  The shallow hole from which it had been taken was just about visible in disturbed soil.  The farmer, David Murray, not only agreed to halt work at my (unofficial) request, but got his men to search the area for more decorated cobbles.  He also agreed to my excavating the site, and to its reinstatement after excavation.  He saved all the cobbles in a heap that had been removed from the site of the mound.    An examination of sparse documentation revealed that Canon Greenwell had investigated six possible burial cairns, two of which had cists with no bodies remaining.  These did not have precise locations, and only one is still visible, outside the area of rock art on the public footpath leading west from site 6.  I regarded the bulldozed site as a possible burial cairn, and set out my excavation grid in an area surrounded by recent ploughing.  Field walking in the disturbed ground did not produce any flints or other artefacts.    About three-quarters of the mound had been bulldozed away, and what was left was carefully trowelled to base.  At the same time, marked cobbles were being recovered and saved.      A team of eight people was involved in the excavation and recording.  Every stone left at base level in situ was recorded, and the area carefully examined for evidence of burial (a cist pit, for example).  There were no signs of burial.    The natural base of the field had a compact pebble layer, and the soil among the stones included pebbles.  Most of the cairn stones were of the cobble type, rounded, and they included volcanic rock brought down by ice.  The stones left in situ were not quarried, but were of the type found on the surface during clearance.  Only one edge of the oval-shaped mound retained any kind of integrity.  There was no kerb of larger stones, but the periphery was made up of cobbles, with the exception of the large, rounded sandstone boulder the motifs of which originally faced inward.

The stone displays two large cup-like depressions, both with a 0.09 m diameter.  On the edge of the stone is a possible, larger, truncated third cup. Several other stones used within the construction of the abutment have circular holes, but nothing else is distinctly cup shaped.    Archive records for Chesters B may be confused, and there is no certainty that this record is definitely 'B'. The Beckensall Archive states:    At NY 914 708 an excavation of the north bank of the River Tyne on the site of the Roman bridge abutment revealed a sandstone cobble with three clear cup marks. It was found at the south east terminal of the northern water channel. Wedge marks on its long edge show that it had been split off a larger piece.     A location is given as Arbeia Roman Fort and Museum, South Shields.    NY914708 is 700 metres north of the bridge and Arbeia Museum have since confirmed they only have one cup marked stone, and that was found during an excavation at Arbeia and only has a single cup.     Whilst the stone recorded here is not a cobble, or on the north side, it does have three cups, was found in a south east terminal of a northern water channel and displays quarry marks on a long edge.    It may be that three records have been confused as the Rev G Rome Hall describes Archaeologia Aeliana -12, 1887, page 282:    ""Besides the large slab in the portico at Chesters, with at least ten cups and several intersecting channels there is another in one of the recently-excavated Roman buildings (from which the windowed apse projects), near the margin of the North Tyne, in the Chesters Park.

770,2,"This area extends from the flanks of Doddington Moor/Dod Law as moorland, arable and pasture farmland and plantations.  It is largely flat, ending with steep western and southern slopes down to the Till.  It is based on a low Fell Sandstone Group terrace, which occasionally outcrops in the western slopes.  There are craggy portions across the area with steep, localized, slopes.  Slopes to the east are generally gentler, extending eastwards to Buttony.    From the plateau edges wide views can be obtained in a variety of directions to the distant Cheviot Hills and other Fell Sandstone Group areas, and over and along the Till valley.  This includes some rock art areas, such as the north of Weetwood Moor and the main Chatton Park-Old Bewick ridge.  The crags and rising ground of Doddington Moor/Dod Law prevent an all-round view of distant areas.    The gentle slopes have allowed Post Medieval ploughing of the ground to be undertaken with disturbance and destruction of archaeological monuments.  A few monuments contemporary with the rock art panels of the Neolithic/Early Bronze Age have been recorded.  These include Cuddie?s Cave rock shelter on the western flanks of Gled Law from which rock art has been recorded, as well as barrows and cairns with grave goods and others which are possibly related to agricultural clearance.  These were discovered in the 19th century, as ploughing started on the flatter portions of the area.    The steep slopes have escaped the ploughing and a number of monuments have been recorded.  These enclosures and settlements are thought to date from the Bronze Age onwards, or the later prehistoric periods, remaining as earthworks.  Ridge and furrow also survives in places with Post Medieval field banks."

This area projects forward out of the main Fell Sandstone Group ridge to the west almost peninsular-like, roughly flat-topped with steep slopes to the north, west and south with the rock art panels found above the slopes.  The ground falls away more gently to the east, before rising to the main ridge.  An established evergreen plantation covers the whole area.    The present state of vegetation precludes much comment about the views from the site, however, it might be supposed the views obtained  if the trees were cleared would be similar to Chatton Park Hill main panel group.  With views to and along the main ridge, as well as across the Till Valley to other Cheviot and Fell Sandstone Group Hills, including the rock art areas, such as ?Chatton Park, Old Bewick and Simonside on the main ridge, and the Titlington, Hunterheugh and ?Midstead islands.  For the northern and southern panels views might also go back to the main Fell Sandstone Group ridge to the northeast and southeast respectively, and portions of the Cheviots though hindered across the peninsular itself.    No other archaeological monuments contemporary with the rock art have been recorded nearby.  Other rock art panels have been identified in the more general area, as well as a possible long cairn by the Ox-Eye stone.

The most north westerly cup and ring is heavily eroded and was only detected using side flash photography.    There was some debate amongst the recorders as to whether this carving represented Amerside Law 2 (ERA 198), as the motifs were roughly similar and coordinates were within 100 metres of those drawn by Stan Beckensall. However, the standing stone wasn?t recognised by Stan Beckensall when contacted, and a small Christian cross previously referenced could not be found on the outcrop.

772,1,"This carved pink grained sandstone boulder was found by Jan Brouwer in September 2007. It sits on the east side of Humbleton Burn, in a field opposite Highburn House.    The motifs are fairly simple, consisting of 3 cups of varying size with the largest being in a central position. Towards the north west end is an irregular ring enclosing an offset cup, a further cup may also be incorporated into the north west of the ring, but it could be a natural depression. All four sides of the stone show signs of being broken, whether this is natural or by human hand is uncertain.    At an altitude of 78 metres, this is a relatively low lying position for a carved stone. Whether it?s in situ or has been moved by floodwater or man is difficult to determine, but the surrounding eroded banks may suggest it?s unlikely to be in an original position.     The stone may be from the type known as ?Doddington Sandstone?."

Unfortunately, the stone does not match any known records held by Alnwick Castle Museum, therefore its original location cannot be determined. The stones size and presence of tooling marks may suggest it came from a burial, but this is uncertain.     Collection of the Duke of Northumberland, Alnwick Castle"
775,1,"This small portable stone has two definite cup marks, both with distinctive tooling marks. The largest cup is situated at one  end of the stone and is deeply carved, the second cup is on the flatter side at the opposite end. A shallow, smooth depression close to the larger cup is likely to be natural.    On the stones other main face, are two irregular shaped shallow depressions, which could possibly be the start of cups due to peck mark-like indentations.     The record for ACAT 1352 within the museum archive refers to an 'irregular block of stone with cup in one end. Several smaller indentations on the stone, length 300 mm breadth 250 mm' .

776,1,"An upright standing stone of antiquity, shown by the natural weathering on the top surface and drainage channel down the north face.    A series of cup-like depressions are almost certainly from rifle or other gunshot impacts, evidenced by their countersunk nature, external fracturing of the surface, radially and also their flat bottoms. A pillbox is 320 metres north east. One cup is very unevenly formed in the circular bowl. Reddish colour indicates possible iron constituent. Two smaller cups on north face at a low level are again more likely to natural than artificial.     This was only noted as a standing stone on OS maps from 1980s onwards and not before. It now acts as a rubbing stone for sheep and cattle in the field.     Bedding planes run vertically through the stone. Views limited by surrounding hillside, though the Hurl Stone cross is visible to the north. Crop marks on aerial photography show settlement in this field."
776,2,This stone stands within 50 m of ?Devils Causeway? Roman Road and is now used a rubbing stone by animals. Circular crop marks are evident nearby. The nearest rock art is at Lilburn South Steads approx 1500 m southwest. The medieval Hurl Stone cross is approx 620 m northwest.

A possible hut-circle referenced N3110 on the SMR / HER is southeast and robbed cairn with a 14 m diameter (SMR / HER N3117) is 60 m southwest. In an area of Bronze-Age cairns, settlement and later Romano-British camps.    Good views west to Hedgehope and Cheviot, east over the Breamish valley to Bewick Hill."

778,1,"This boulder is set in a small clearance cairn, is flat on top but dips steeply to ground level on the north east side. It is largely covered with turf and moss.     The motifs consist of one good cup with a 0.07 m diameter and 0.02 m depth and several other irregular shaped depressions, which could possibly be natural."
779,2,Set in the lowest block of stone in one of the ceiling arches towards the north east corner of the monastic workshop.
779,7,
779,1,"This stone is positioned in the north east corner of the Monastic workshop at Hexham Abbey and was recorded as having a single cup mark in 1999.     A fieldtrip in March 2008 determined that the single cup mark was a flat bottomed, slightly undercut cylindrical hole probably cut for lifting the stone or mounting an object. Although definitely artificial, it is extremely unlikely to be a prehistoric and is thought to be contemporary with the Abbey?s construction / usage. Several other, similar markings can be seen in the Abbey."

780,1,"A rounded slab, slightly tilted from west to east.     The stone has two single cups. The western cup is oval in shape, measures 0.06 m diameter and 0.03 m deep, and is not definitely rock art. The second cup, towards the north end of the stone in a central position, is symmetrical and has an 0.08 m diameter, is 0.04 m deep and is probably artificial."
780,2,"The stone can be found in a cairn 1 m south of the bridle path from Jingling Gate to Allendale. Other small cairns are found along the line of the bridleway indicating a probable use of markers. The SMR / HER notes ?cairns occupy a conspicuous point on Bulman?s Rigg, where the bridleway rises to the west out of an area of low, rather wet ground and commands wide views to the north east?.     A standing stone (SMR/HER ref N7454) on the east side of Gaterley Hill, is approx 800m southwest."

It has a single cup-like depression, with a 0.06 m diameter and 0.01 m depth in a central area. This and several other shallow depressions and grooves are likely to be natural.

Two possible cups can be seen on the north face: the central cup has a 0.07 m diameter, is 0.01 m deep and very eroded; the top cup has a 0.04 m diameter, is 0.01 m deep and has an irregular shape. Their authenticity as prehistoric markings isn?t definite. Where the cross shaft was originally quarried from is not known, but it has been carefully cut and shaped for the socket."

Although now treeless, the coppice was shown as wooded on the 1861 Ordnance Survey map.    The panel is positioned approximately 100 metres southwest of Weetwood 8b.    Intervisibility is hampered by modern tree planting, but would otherwise be good. Other sites at Chatton, Amerside Law and Weetwood are all visible.  Carving consists of one cup with multiple penannulars and a duct. The duct bends past another cup and ring and continues down the face of the panel.     All  of the motifs are very faint, barely discernible. There may have been other features on this panel that have since eroded away.

795,1,"A small cobble fallen from a medieval field wall bears a single large cup on the upper surface. Cup is roughly made with cup sides appearing to be slightly grooved in places. The cobble has noticeably angular sides indicating possible preparation prior to carving or may have resulted from wall use. It lies close to the wall and has obviously been a part of it. The wall has produced a number of other similar cobbles, some with more complex decoration. The wall was probably constructed from cairn or field clearance residue in the immediate area.    A significant deserted medieval village was enclosed by the wall."

The most elaborate carving is a cup with four rings that stretches across the top south-east corner of the stone. A cup has also been incorporated into the outer ring on the north side and a groove runs out of the rings down the eastern face. Six cups of varying size run in a line along the eastern ridge of the stone, one of which has a long groove running to ground level. Just beneath the multi-ring motif, a single shallow cup has a groove running down the eastern face. Six other possile cups can be seen, some connected by grooves. All motifs are extremely eroded, especially the multiple ring.     Smaller stones forming the prehistoric bank have been packed around the stone's base, therefore it is unlikely to be in situ. However, the position of the motifs on the stone's corner may suggest they were meant to be seen on an upright stone, therefore it may not have been moved far.

833,1,"This square block has a number of holes forming straight lines from the SE to NW edge. The holes are of varying size and shape and appear to follow visible bedding planes. This may indicate the origin is likely to be a result of natural weathering (solution holes) along weakness in the bedding planes or even inclusions. However, towards the stones east end, six depressions are typically cup shaped and likely to be artificial. Interestingly, they appear to follow the same lines as the solutions holes and complete the sequence to the end of the stone.      This would fit with several other panels on Barningham Moor, where the carvers enhanced or linked naturally formed hollows to cups.

It is positioned within rubble walling 5 m north of a track, with other stones surrounding it on all sides. A number of boulders including one of Shap granite 12 m west, show signs of having been moved, therefore this stone is unlikely to be in its original position.     The area around this stone has seen multi-period activity from the Neolithic through to possibly Medieval times. The earliest signs apart from the carvings are 2 burnt mounds which sit 75 -100 m south-west, next to a drying up watercourse.

851,1,"An upright quarried stone with carvings on the west facing vertical.     The motifs are elaborate for Barningham Moor, consisting of a cup with three concentric rings close to ground level, with three grooves running out of the central cup cutting through the rings to join two cups with single rings, and a cup with an arc. The latter may have been a complete ring (or two) but has since eroded away. The most northerly connecting cup and ring is irregular and may have a curvilinear groove running out from the ring, two further cups with single rings and six single cup marks can be also seen.    It?s setting within rubble walling and in amongst other large unmarked boulders (moved relatively recently) would suggest the stone isn?t in its original position. However, it may have stood here for some time as the majority of motifs are heavily eroded and its upright position may have increased its susceptibility to weathering.     Carvings with multiple rings are rare on Barningham Moor, with only six examples known at the time of recording.  This is one of three that appears with 350 meters of each other around the Washbeck area.

Further examples of stones poking through soil, creating lines can be seen up to 115 m south, with a short rubble bank suggestive of prehistoric field clearance being most distinctive. Whether these are in fact archaeological features can only be determined through excavation.    120 m ESE are 2 burnt mounds, 72 m WNW is a carved rock and various banks. Further examples of rock art can be found in all directions within 600 m. The burnt mounds and carvings place human activity in the immediate area firmly in the Neolithic to Early Bronze-Age, however the banks may be later in date.

Pitting means the cup could be natural, but this feature does have an artificial look. Small indentations similar to peck marks appear in the cup, but they?re also reminiscent of the stones pitting. To the north of the cup an arc looks to have formed, again whether this is artificial or natural is difficult to determine.    A thin linear groove at the stones north end looks naturally formed."

856,1,"This isolated stone has visible measurements of 1.4m x 0.76m and sits on top of Eel Hill, towards Cross Gill. The main feature is a very large, deep bowl with a 0.24m diameter and 0.17m depth, the inside of which is stained pink. The steep, near vertical sides, diameter and depth of the bowl could be suggestive of a naturally formed hole but, enhanced natural or being entirely artificial cannot be discounted. The other motifs carved consist of three cups with single rings, a cup with two rings, a further single cup, and a groove running east-west across the northern end. Several other small depressions can be seen, but these are likely to be the result of erosion.  During a check of data in summer 2006, a further cup and cup with ring were noted under turf on the north end.     The ring around the most north-westerly single cup with a ring is irregular, and has been carved in relief.  A further ring may also exist on the raised area.     The location of this stone is unusual for rock art in the Barningham Moor/South Tees area, as the overwhelming majority of carvings tend to be found on terraces off higher ground. Where carvings are found on peaks they?re usually associated with burial mounds such as How Tallon, Osmaril Gill and Frankinshaw. With this particular panel there?s no obvious association with a cairn, although a small one can be seen approx 75m to the east. There has also been some suggestion that it may once have stood upright.

This part of the gill runs from the SW to the NE and is approx 500 m long and 200 m wide. The panel may have been decorated when it was part of the original strata and fallen to its current position.    10 m to the south, a short denuded wall of unknown provenance runs east to west across gill, effectively cutting off the southern end of the gill. The reason for the walling is open to question but, the surrounding steep inclines may be suggestive of a corral."

857,1,"This large slab sits at the bottom of a steep slope on the eastern side of Osmaril Gill, in amongst a scattering of other large stones. Within the gill, signs of quarrying can be seen and this panel may have fallen from the face approx 30meters higher.     The stones upper surface has three levels, with the carving being on the highest south side, along with multiple linear striations running east - west. The position of the linear features (only on the highest part) are reminiscent of glacial markings, but their presence inside the motifs and stones underside would suggest bedding layers.     Whether the carving has been deliberately positioned because of the visible bedding layers is difficult to determine. However, it is interesting to note that whilst multiple ringed motifs are rare on Barningham Moor, where they do exist natural features such as fissures, edges and natural grooves are close to the outer rings. This also seems to be the case for this particular carving.    Reference 68 in the Barningham Moor section of the 1998 publication, ?Prehistoric Rock Art of County Durham, Swaledale and Wensleydale?."
858,2,"This carving is positioned on the east side of the gill, on a steep incline directly above the scree's south end. The boulder itself, has probably tumbled from higher ground to its present position. Whether the motifs were added before or after the fall is open to interpretation.     A scatter of stones, some showing worked edges and feathering marks indicate the area has been extensively quarried in the past.    Signs of prehistoric activity can be found all around, with the gills multiple ringed motif 46 m to the north. Further rock art is located on Eel Hill 200 m to the northwest and clustered along a higher terrace to the northeast. A Romano-British settlement can be found 400 m away on the same terrace. In addition to this, a stone circle is approx 100 m south and a cairn 100 m south of that.

863,1,"The cairn on How Tallon is a prominent site on the moor and can be seen as a ?notch? on the skyline for many miles from the north.     The Bronze-Age barrow has been excavated over the last 150 years. Reports refer to multiple burials, flints, fragments of beakers as well as several cup marked stones being found. Some of the marked stones have since been removed, with this particular carving being the best example remaining. During the recording process, two other possible single cup marked stones were noted and another stone with a single cup also reappeared.  Other stones are undoubtedly in the wall or cairn, but removal from the site shouldn?t be discounted.    As far as this carving is concerned, the cups are well formed and there is little doubt that those on side ?A? are artificial, with at least two cups displaying peck marks. On side ?B?, several more indentations can be seen, although these may have been formed through natural weathering processes.  All edges, apart from one are rounded, this may suggest it once formed part of a larger stone.

Given the probable Romano-British date for the settlement, the carving is likely to have been moved to its current position. Like numerous other carvings incorporated into walling on Barningham, the motifs face outward rather than inward.     Clusters of rock art can be seen further along the same ridge to the E, a burnt mound is 190m NE on lower ground, and the Bronze Age barrow of How Tallon is 260m SW.  All may suggest occupation of this terrace stretches further back than the Romano-British period."

864,1,"An important pyramid shaped stone rising 0.5m above ground level. It?s set on the corner of enclosure walling looking out, opposite what may have been a route across the settlement area.     The motifs consist of one large deep cup / bowl with a 0.12 - 0.14m diameter and 0.09m depth on the stones lower NW corner. Three grooves run out of this feature, one running NW to the stones edge and the other two joining smaller cups. Centrally,two cups look to be conjoined but, equally it could be one elongated cup. Fourteen other cups can be seen scattered about the stone, some of which are irregular (approx five) and may well be natural.    Reference 46 in the Barningham Moor section of the 1998 publication, ?Prehistoric Rock Art of County Durham, Swaledale and Wensleydale?."
865,2,"Situated 1 m up from the foot of the steep incline leading to How Tallon Ridge. The surrounding area is littered with stone, some of which show signs of quarrying (feathering marks). Therefore, it is difficult to determine whether the stone is in situ, or has been moved / fallen.    A settlement thought to be Romano-British in date is directly stretches along the terrace to the north, and enclosure walling can be seen just 12m east. Further rock art is approx 16m south-south-east and 9 m west. Further clusters of carvings can be found along the terrace to the west.     Although, probably not contemporary with the visible remains of the settlement, the proximity of rock art, a burnt mound (100m north) How Tallon barrow and Osmaril Gill stone circle, all suggest the area may have been occupied for millennia.

865,1,"This carved stone sits 1m above the terrace, on a steep incline towards How Tallon ridge.     The motifs consist of one large cup sitting in a depression on the south side of the stone, with ten other cups of varying size clustered around it. Whether the larger cup is manmade or an enhanced natural feature is open to question. A further cup can be seen towards the stones north end. Other less distinct depressions also appear to be on the rock.    Reference 45 in the Barningham Moor section of the 1998 publication, ?Prehistoric Rock Art of County Durham, Swaledale and Wensleydale?."
866,2,"This carving sits 10m west of a settlement thought to be of Romano-British origin and 15m south of a track running east - west across the terrace.     The area shows signs of multi-period activity, with a burnt mound 95m north, How Tallon barrow 254m on higher ground to the south, a small cairn field to the east, approx 40 carved rocks on the same terrace to the west and numerous quarrying marks on stones to the south.     Whilst the settlement is believed to be Romano-British, the proximity of some features i.e. burnt mound and rock art may suggest earlier occupation.

866,1,"An unusual stone measuring 0.97m x 0.54m and 0.10m proud of the surface. The motifs consist of a large central irregular bowl with a 0.3m diameter and 0.25m depth, and nine other cups scattered about the stone surface. Although the cups look typically artificial, the provenance of the larger bowl is open to question. The shape, size,  and near vertical sides of this feature may suggest a natural formation, but equally it could be enhanced natural or entirely artificial.    The stone is positioned 10 meters southwest of a probable hut circle and 10m west of enclosure walling, all of which is thought to be of Romano-British origin. Whether the markings on this stone (and bowl) are contemporary with the settlement or belong to an earlier epoch is difficult to determine. However, given the proximity of the hut circle, a possible practical usage for the bowl isn?t difficult to imagine.    A turf plug currently resides in the bowl.

867,8,A small stone close to a track. May already have signs of vehicle damage.
867,2,"This stone sits on a level terrace just 2 m south of the track that runs west to Osmaril Gill. Whether the stone is in situ or has been moved is difficult to tell.    The western edge of the reportedly Romano-British settlement sits on the same terrace 50 m east, a burnt mound is 90 m north east, further clusters of rock art and several possible hollow ways can be found on the same terrace to the west.     The track, 2 m north seems a natural route to higher ground, where the stone circle at Osmaril Gill and the barrow at How Tallon can be found.     This area of Barningham Moor is interesting because of its richness of archaeological features which span millennia. This occupation may have something to do with the numerous springs close to the terrace, one of which has a burnt mound.     There are extensive views across Barningham Moor to Teesdale in the north."
867,3,Sandstone
868,2,"This carving can be found in low rubble walling leading west from the burnt mound. The area immediately north to north west is likely to have been cleared of stone at some time in the past. 20 m west, a knoll has been cut into and squared, directly north of this feature is a distinctive grassy area. The rubble walling containing the carving appears to run into this grassy area and disappear, suggesting it may post-date the cutting of the knoll.     A number of archaeological features belonging to different periods can be seen, with the burnt mound and rock art being the earliest sign of habitation.  The cut knoll and possible clearance being next and latterly, the wall being constructed. The carving has probably been transported into the walling during one of the later periods of occupation and is unlikely to be in situ."

874,4,2 cups possibly linked by a short groove
874,1,"On this stone, fourteen highly eroded cup-like depressions can be seen, eight of which look natural due to their shape and similarities to pitting. Centrally, a large shallow eroded oval bowl can be seen, this again could have been formed naturally through weathering of cement weakness. Two cups towards the south-west end look to be linked by a short groove.     Because of excessive erosion it is extremely difficult to determine whether the markings on this stone are natural or artificial.

Directly 10 m south, a small elongated cairn like structure can be seen at the foot of the incline. The track running west bisects an area scattered with stones of varying size, some of which have been carved in the cup and ring tradition. 20 m to the north and east, curvilinear features have been worn into the landscape running north east to lower ground.      It is likely that extensive quarrying has taken place in the vicinity and this may account for many of the features mentioned above. The presence of a dense cluster of carvings amongst this scattering of quarried rocks is intriguing.

Five other cups are irregular or shallow and could be either artificial or the result of erosion. In a central position, just south of the large cups is an elongated feature which could be conjoined cups or erosion.

Three of the depressions appear to be nipped in the middle, suggesting they may be conjoined cups.     Although these features are not typically cup-like, the presence of tooling marks (could also be pitting) and their positioning may indicate an element of enhancement. Whether this is contemporary with the other rock carvings or the settlement is open to interpretation."
893,2,"Unusual position for rock art, set 3 m up a steep incline in amongst a scattering of stones. Two other carvings in equally odd positions can be found within 20 m to the east.     A number of stones in the area show signs of having being quarried, and undoubtedly the stone in this area was used to construct the settlement.       Extensive views east to the northern edge of the North Yorkshire Moors and north across Barningham Moor and Teesdale beyond."

Another cluster of carvings is 30 m to the west, the westerly edge of the Romano-British settlement is 195 m east and a small enclosure on lower ground is 105 m north east. A number of curvilinear features, similar to hollow ways are north and south-west.      Several stones in the vicinity show signs of being dressed, and the slight rise the stone finds itself on may be a result of quarry waste.

903,1,"The motifs on this stone consist of two cups, each with three penannulars overlooking the northern edge of the stone. Running south from each central cup are grooves, the most easterly of which joins a cup and then an arc surrounding a cup beyond that.     Towards the south-west, a bullet shaped groove encloses a cluster of seven cups and incorporates two more within the grooving. At the south-east end, is a cup with two penannulars, again with a groove coming out to the south. A further seven single cups are separate from other motifs.     One of the most striking elements about this carving is the apparent difference in wear and style between particular motifs. The penannulars on the northern side have almost completely worn away and were probably intricately carved, where as the other motifs display clear tooling marks and are crudely carved. One exception to this may be the south-east penannular as a pecked area may overlay it. There is a suggestion that some motifs may have been added at different stages, with the penannulars being the earliest carvings, possibly by quite some margin.    Directly 125 meters west, is a multiple ringed carving displaying equally eroded rings,    Reference 16 in the Barningham Moor section of the 1998 publication, ?Prehistoric Rock Art of County Durham, Swaledale and Wensleydale?."

903,2,"This carving is set within what looks to be a prehistoric enclosure, with low rubble banks curving east to west. However, the rubble banks come to an abrupt end on the east side, so this feature may in fact be early field clearance.     Approx 50 m to the west, a linear bank runs south-north across Washbeck Green leading to lower ground. Further examples of rock art stretch over the same terrace approx 1.5km west and 1km east, with the nearest being 125 meters westt. All displaying what could be termed as ?complex? motifs for this particular moor. 75 m south-west there are short linear rubble banks suggestive of field clearance and small rectangular depressions which may be the remains of small buildings.    Overall, the area around this stone has seen many phases of human activity with the rock art being one of the earliest visible signs."
904,1,"A large flat stone measuring 2 x 1.3 m, now mostly under turf.     This is an extremely difficult carving to describe, mainly because of the complexity of grooves and cups that have been incorporated into the design. In simple terms, the motifs consist of approx eighty three cups of varying size, distributed across the stone, with the northern end being the busier half. Of the eighty three, thirteen have rings, ten of which appear to have been carved in relief.  For these particular features the un-carved ring attracts the eye.      By far the most noticeable design element, is the network of intricately carved grooves that incorporate approx forty six cups and nine rings. In some places, cups act as nodes with grooves branching out in different directions to join other cups, and elsewhere, grooves enclose other motifs. Only twenty one out of eighty three cups haven?t been included in the grooves or adorned with rings. Towards the south end, a natural depression has been enhanced (peck marks visible) and a groove leads into it from the main design. Several other areas also have peck marks visible.     The difference in complexity between this carving and every other known example on Barningham Moor is stark, as the majority are relatively simple in design with less than 15% displaying even a single ring. There are certain similarities between this stone and carvings found in the Feldom Range area a few miles east, where several examples of cup covered stones with complex interlinking grooves can be found.    Another point worthy of note, is its position close to one of two penannular carvings on Barningham, as both stones are ?complex? and show signs of possible later motifs being added."

The motifs consist of a small cup and ring in a central position towards the stones south end, a linear groove leads out of the ring to a cup in the stones centre. In the south-west corner, a cup has a linear groove leading east along the south edge and around the cup and ring, where it suddenly stops. On the same line, a groove starts bending slightly northwards leading into an irregular depression / cup.

A fissure runs NE-SW across and through the bowl, widening to a channel at the stones north-east end. The bowl may be the result of cement weakness running along the fissure, as the shape is irregular and not typical of rock art in the area. However, possible enhancement of the bowl cannot be ruled out."

The stone has a degree of reddening, which may be the result of heat.    Motifs on this stone consist of two cup-like depressions in a central position on the northern exposed area. The largest depression has a diameter of 0.08m, is shallow and irregular, the other, 0.06m to the NW is smaller with a 0.04 - 0.05m diameter. Although these features are cup-like, it is diffiuclt to determine whether they've been created artificially or by weathering of cement weakness.

929,1,"This rectangular shaped stone has a deep cup-like depression towards the eastern end. Within the cup, is a small solution hole making the cup irregular in shape. This, along with the almost vertical sides, may suggest the feature is more natural than artificial, but enhancement cannot be ruled out.     Prior to this recording, the stone had been examined several times by the project team and the cup was thought to be entirely natural. However, in April 2007, the stone was viewed in low sunlight and this revealed the possibility of a ring and arcs surrounding the cup. Photogrammetric processing has since revealed the presence of a ring and at least one arc.

This area of bedrock is friable with sand grains present in both the bowl and channels. The shape and depth of the bowl is unusual for rock art, therefore, this, along with friability means the bowl may have been caused by natural weathering of calcite / silica weakness. Likewise, neither of the channels display typically ?artificial? qualities, as both have irregular widths and depths. The most easterly channel shows signs of water erosion and the westerly has planar erosion with two different bedding planes visible."

A number of motifs carved here are unusual for British rock art, with a single cup-less ring, a ?V? shaped groove, an apparent cross (utilising a fissure), three cups plus a short groove forming a pattern similar to a ?face?, in addition to two other single cups. Large natural fissures also give the appearance that motifs have been ?framed? in sections.     All motifs are deep with tooling marks clearly visible, some fissures may have also been ?enhanced?. Within the ?V? shaped groove, elongated narrow tooling marks form chevron patterns, the project team debated whether these were from metal tools.

The first cluster on the south-west corner has nine cups of varying size (largest 0.06m diameter) and appears to be boxed in by a natural groove west of the two largest cups, and an artificial groove to the north, two cups follow the line of the artificial groove west. A 2nd cluster is positioned on the north-west edge and has eight cups with a short curving groove bisecting the cups furthest west. Towards the north-east edge, the most intriguing cluster can be seen with up to twenty three cups placed in a slight depression. The cups here are significantly smaller than others on the stone, with some also being irregular in shape. Although there is something distinctly natural about some of the smaller cups, the pattern in rows quite clearly is artificial, therefore, there may be a mixture of both natural and carved features. The difference between the style of cups in this cluster and the others is stark and may suggest the stone has been carved at different times, or by a different carver.

It would be difficult to say with any degree of certainty that human hand has created these rather than nature. However, the pattern they form, their proximity to definite carved areas around The Rigg and the Loups?s, make the artificial nature of these cups a distinct possibility.

981,1,"This almost rectangular shaped stone sits in a cluster of others, some carved , on a relatively flat area north of Eel Hill. Due to turf coverage it had not been noted during previous fieldwork, however, a fieldtrip in March 08 found the turf had been recently disturbed and this prompted further investigation.    Although not complex, the use and enhancement of natural solution holes and artificial cups in the design makes this stone interesting. It also adds to a collection of other carvings on Barningham that display similar ?enhanced natural? characteristics.    At the northwest corner are two irregular shaped conjoined cups, which could be either enhanced solution holes or totally artificial (due to tooling marks). To the south, is a cluster of solution holes and a regular shaped cup. Two of the solution holes have tooling marks present, particularly the largest which is irregular in both shape and depth. Joined onto the south side of this, is a short curving groove terminating at a cup. On the west side of the large irregular solution hole is an area of tooling marks, which may be the start of a cup. Further south, in a central position, is another regular cup with tooling marks, a small fissure runs out of it west, leading to a solution hole. South of this, and again central, is another cup with tooling marks. Towards the south east edge, on a higher bedding plane, is a cup and two small depressions, possibly solution holes.

To the north, a linear, possibly enhanced groove runs parallel with the northern edge.    Although not particular interesting in design, the stone is unusual for Barningham Moor due to its relatively high position on the landscape. With the exception of the carving on Eel Hill (ERA 856) the only other carvings on or close to peaks are found in cairns (How Tallon and Osmaril Gill). All other carvings are found on lower terraces.     Within 20 meters east, a number of stones display distinctive feathering marks, meaning quarrying has taken place in the immediate vicinity.

These panels are located on a lengthy ridge, highly visible from the east and west, and with wide views to the east and the west across generally lower arable and grazing ground.  The ridge is on the watershed of the tributaries to the River Till and Sandyford Burn.    The panels are in an extensive cairnfield of mixed agriculture clearance and burial cairns.  A number of well made, funerary cairns are present along the ridgeline, some visible from the rock art panels.  These include a rare ring cairn or enclosed cremation cemetery and separate stone circle/setting of four stones.  These monuments are thought typically Late Neolithic/Early Bronze Age.  None of the rock art panels are particularly close to these monuments.  More definite Neolithic activity is noted in the finds of axeheads in the general area of Chatton Moor and Brownridge.    In part, however, the cairnfield has been clipped by the Brownridge (Post Medieval) intakes of land with field boundaries, with former ridge and furrow noted, and further stone-walls.

1002,2,"The panel is situated at the side of the valley, with views across and along the Brownridge Burn. There is no evidence that this stone was moved to this spot. The quarried edge noted along much of this stone is quite sharp - no dating for this activity can be offered.    These panels are near an extensive cairnfield first identified by George Jobey in the 1960s as his Brownridge site.  Subsequent  work in the 1990s by the Border Archaeological Society has recorded further cairns both infilling that of Jobey?s plans, and extending the cairnfield?s boundaries northwards.  The cairnfield is mostly (?totally) of the agricultural clearance cairn type, with artificially truncated western and southern edges by (?Post Medieval) fields bounded by sod cast dykes, now totally heather-covered.  South of Lamb?s Knowe, near Chatton Sandyfords Farm, a burial cist monument was discovered in ploughing, though noted only as the cist grave and capstone alone here.    The area is gently undulating ground, generally lower than the adjacent Chatton Sandyford and Willie Law ridge areas.  It is flanked to either side by the incised streams of the Brownridge Burn from a source in the southwest, running round on the west and north, and the larger Sandyford Burn to the east.  Despite the surrounding higher ground that prevents distant views, wide local views can be obtained particularly from the valley side of the Brownridge Burn.    To the north of the area there appears an excavated pit.  There does not appear to be any prehistoric monument on top, either now or previously, since no stone has been recorded there.

It is situated at the base of a western slope from the top of the Chatton Sandyford cairnfield ridge line, which is also just above the level of the Camp Hill moss. The low-lying ground continues North-South, and an extensive view in distance, but not in terms of panorama is obtained.  The ground to either side of this area rises - though only the western Willie Law area is visible; that to the East, is slope.  (The low-lying area is also known as Camp Hill moss - from which a peat core was obtained in the 1970s).  The setting is quite unusual for a Northumbrian rock art panel."

It is uncertain if all these midgets are prehistoric rock art motifs. The two largest cups, are rounded, appearing at the 'top' of the rock. These larger cups might be thought of as in a line.    The panel has only a slight profile above the ground level, but not so much as to protrude above the vegetation. The panel lies within an area of known cairnfield activity - though the panel itself is not part of any cairn or other structure.

1026,1,"This is a moderately-sized panel appearing roughly rectangular and gently sloping, surrounded by deep heather at the fringes of a forest plantation. The panel is outcropping rock with the majority of the motifs free from deep cover of turf, heather vegetation and lichens.  The motifs appear concentrated at one - the southern - half of the roughly rectangular shape.  No quarrying of the panel is thought to have occurred.    The motifs consist of single cup marks linked into strings with linking and interlinking grooves. The cups of these 'strings' generally are small and shallow, of 0.05m size, though there appears some arrangement of these since one string starts and ends with larger than the normal cups.  There are a number of natural depressions which are mainly at the northern end of the rock.  Mini-depressions within one cup are thought, only possibly, peck marks.  All the marks and depressions are quite shallow and some appear ambiguous outside of the 'string' lines.  There is a further groove which ends with a definite cup: it is started, possibly from a cup.  There are a number of motifs if they can be broadly separated into types; individual, unconnected, cup marks; cup marks starting and within grooves that link; and dumbbells of grooves starting and ending with a cup mark without any incorporation of other cups."
1026,9,Heather vegetation
1026,10006,"On the outcrop are cups joined together like strings of beads. The largest string has its largest cups at either end with five smaller cups in between. Parallel to this are four joined cups and a thinner groove that ends with a cup; the head of the groove has four cups pecked in an arc. To the right of this is an arc of four cups, which appears as though they were also due to be linked with a groove.     The motif of linked cups is rare, but can be seen at Gayles Moor (Richmondshire) and Barningham Moor (C. Durham), for example."

1026,2,"It is thought that a wide view would be obtained prior to the forestry planting in the area, especially to the North, through East - to the coastline - to the South.  Rising ground to the Southwest is noted and may have blocked any original views.    These summary notes are based on the work of George Jobey in the 1970s (1981).  Prior to the afforestation the area of Millstone Hill was covered by a cairnfield consisting of at least 85 small rounded cairns, roughly centred at NU 088 261.  A triplet of conjoined kerbed cairns was excavated revealing cremations, some pottery and charcoal.  The excavator (George Jobey) collected samples for radiocarbon dating - but this was not carried out, and wrote that the monument was of a common North British type, though dates and affinities of this type were somewhat varied.  Two further cairns - thought of as clearance cairns - were also excavated, one covering a charcoal layer radiocarbon date calibrated to 2202-1975 BC.  Jobey noted the construction of the cairns need not have immediately followed the burning clearance suggested by the charcoal, but noted other possible earlier burning clearance in the area.  Prior to the planting of the trees further rock art panels (recorded in this project as Millstone Hill New 1 and Millstone Hill portable, Rock Art Ids 1031 and 1369 respectively) were found in a furrow not far from Jobey's excavations (see the references for that panel).  The area is named after a millstone quarry noted in a later regional review by Jobey (1986: site number 7)."

None of the rock art panels are part of, or tumble from, the many cairns that are present.  The rock art panels appear to be at the fringes of the cairnfield.     The cairnfield was first recorded by George Jobey, as a mixture of presumed burial and clearance cairns.  Survey carried out shows several cairns are well-made, with defined edges (if not actually kerbed), and largely similar sizes.  No internal structures, eg.

There are no linear clearance cairns here, which might indicate the cairnfield?s development, as noted and suggested elsewhere.

Opinion is divided as to whether or not the Ox-Eye long mound is natural or is a long cairn/ barrow.  Prior to the recent forestry a small cairnfield, unenclosed hut circle and later enclosure dyke were recorded in this area."

To the south and southeast, on Hepburn Moor, are many cairns, mostly clearance but with some cist burials and an unenclosed hut circle thought to be Bronze Age.  The cairns spread from high moorland to low-lying marsh and are mostly on east-facing slopes.  A small number of rock art panels are located here but few remain in situ.

1039,1,An almost square boulder with three sides evidently quarried. There are five cup marks which if seen alone could be considered dubious as each is ragged. A grouping of four cups in a triangle containing a smaller and shallower cup gives credence to artificiality and some forethought in planning the design. A crack and quartz banding are visible. It is likely the boulder was quarried in the immediate area.

Only the top surface is decorated with rock art motifs and these are concentrated to only a portion.     The boulder is in a large 4.5 m by 4.0 m clearance cairn composed of large boulders.  There is no evidence of any formal edge or kerb around the 'circumference' of the cairn 'circle'.  Further, there is no evidence of any cist or central feature.  It is thought this, like others on the plateau, is a clearance cairn.    The plateau of flat land allows a good view of the area from North, through West, to the South where other clearance cairns and hut circles can be seen.  There is a wide view to the Cheviot Hills.  However, the eastern view is largely blocked by rising ground.  Three large depressions are thought definite cup marks; these are quite pronounced.

Peck marks visible in main cup and on the reverse of panel.    This panel was found near the Hepburn to Ros Castle road by Peter Dwyer's sons having fallen out of an old field wall. The find-spot is from Peter Dwyer's recollection of events. Penannular grooves are 'quarried through' indicating removal from outcrop after motif creation.

On the 'top' surface is a 0.06 m diameter cup mark, quite deep at 0.02 m and complete with peck marks. On the 'bottom' surface a shallow cup has a  0.03 m diameter and 0.01m depth. The two motifs differ in dimensions, though both possess many peck marks throughout the whole of the motifs. Both 'faces' also bear a number of linear scars, though both 'faces' might not have been readily visible when ploughing took place.

The panel has been quarried possibly in removal from outcrop or in later disturbance.  There are jagged sharp edges showing probable metal tooling and revealing new stone.  It has been in ploughed location for a time evidenced by strike marks in different directions.  The cup on the flatter surface is very round , 0.06 m in size, shows shallow peck marking and is placed close to an edge with strata layers.  The cup on the other side is larger ( 0.07 m by 0.08 m) and deeper ( 0.04-0.05 m) and also very round, with exceptionally sharp surface edge and appearance of grinding to make a smooth cup surface.

1054,4,Cup marks at either end of a groove
1054,1,"This panel was not located during the NADRAP survey. It is reportedly somewhere among cairns in the Bewick Moor North cairnfield. This area was searched a number of times in Spring and Summer of 2006, as well as Summer 2007. Across the whole of the cairnfield was a deep cover of heather (and near panels Bewick Moor North b and c, Rock Art IDs 1056 and 1058).    Previously published literature shows the whole face of the panel covered in motifs, and seem to imply that it has been broken from outcrop - partially destroying one of the motifs. It appears to have 10 single cup marks, with perhaps four cup marks with single, very wide, rings, eight further cups with arcs (that interlock with their neighbours), and several cups with grooves.  The motifs cover much of the shown surface of the rock, and in one an apparent cup mark is seemingly broken by the (?modified) shape of the stone."
1054,10019,Could not be found during the project.
1054,2,"This panel is located within the Bewick Moor North cairnfield.  There are a number of other cairns - at least 15 - of similar sizes.  At least one cairn shows the remains of a cist, whilst one (another) incorporates a standing stone (Bewick Moor North b(i)).  These later two separate cairns have both been previously - but unrecorded - excavated.  Other rock art and on the sides of cairns - one as a standing stone - has been recorded in this project."

Elsewhere, seven other shallow depressions may be considered possible marks. The panel appears face-up on the SE side of a cairn, the only large stone visible. There are no identifiable kerb stones or exposed cist (central or otherwise) and the round cairn is about 5 m diameter. It is unclear whether this cairn was sepulchral, like others in the cairnfield, or agricultural clearance. Nonetheless, this is a well-preserved cairn within the Bewick Moor cairn field, albeit with an excavated centre evidenced by a depression 1.20 m north-south by 0.70 m east-west.

No other weathering traces are noted here or elsewhere on the rock.    The panel has a broad view to the southern points of the compass, including much of the hill slopes from the 'level' area of the hilltop and the the valley of the Harehope Burn in particular. The panel lies within an area of other rock art panels - Blawearie-Bewick Moor 1 and 2, and other prehistoric cairns which are nearby to both sides within 10 m.

1064,1,"Panel sits among a number of cairns, more than 15, closely assembled on the hillside facing into the valley with Cheviot on the west and sea visible to the east. Behind and above lies the very substantial and recognisable outcrop of Housey Crags. Unusually the rock is granite and noticeably harder than sandstone. There are two definite cups, most probably artificial but roughly formed (due to the granite), in the middle of the upper surface. They have diameters of 0.04 m and 0.05 m and are placed close together. There is potentially an arc on one of the cups but with the nature of the stone it is very difficult to be sure. Their location, in a cairnfield, and most probably at one time part of one of the cairns, gives credence to the cups being artificially formed."

It is a prominent feature in the landscape of Northumberland, rising from the main sandstone arc, with crags and steep slopes off in most directions, appearing as a high ?island?.    Many views can be obtained from the area.  From the promontory edges views are obtained to the distant Cheviot Hills and Weetwood block over the Till/Breamish, with areas of rock art both on and off the main Fell Sandstone Group arc, such as Doddington/Dod Law, Amerside Law, and Beanley/Hunterheugh rock art areas amongst others.  Back along the promontory the undulating main Fell Sandstones Group arc is seen as Bewick, Blawearie-Bewick and Harehope Moors. The tilt of the promontory itself prevents a view of all areas being obtained till near the hill/slope top.    There is an extensive series of rock art panels across the area.  Evidence of human activity are present across the whole area, and the panels are a mixture of in situ and re-located panels.    Finds which are potentially contemporary with the rock art include Neolithic pottery found below the northwestern crags and other artefacts from nearby Bewick Moor.  A stone circle, previously recorded at this site, is disputed.  A cairn near the main panel, and enclosed cremation cemeteryat the end of the promontory, are both likely Early Bronze Age.    Panels in Group 1 (which includes the main panel) are surrounded by field clearance and quarrying stone debris.  The small clearance cairns are believed to be Post Medieval, placed around the earthfast panels.  Toolmarks (thought to belong to the same period) show efforts were made to quarry parts of the main panel.

1066,1,"The panel was not located during NADRAP recording. It appears to be an irregularly-shaped stone, quarried at two surface levels. The panel was apparently found loose in the quarry on the northern flanks of Old Bewick hill. It is assumed that this panel came from the outcrop, largely quarried, edge that makes up the southern edge of the quarry. However, it is impossible to guess what the original context of the stone was. The stone has been photographed a number of times, and is thought, though unverified, to be at Harehope Hall, Eglingham.    The panel is one of a number that bears motifs on two separate levels of rock. These have been argued - at outcrop sources - to represent the quarrying of slabs for monument constructions. It is possible that this is also the case here, and that the later (undated) quarrying has brought this block down from the adjacent outcrop."

It stands out from the surface so well as to introduce reservations concerning its prehistoric antiquity. A similar but more eroded penannular with smaller cup is on the west side mirroring the more defined motif [marked A & B]. Other small cups with rings, some with broad rings present the appearance of bosses with dimple cups. Grooves link some of the motif. Panel is in a depression which may give it protection from the elements and may have covered it until recently and hints at partial excavation or removal."
1087,10006,"What we see on the tilted surface of this block is a design that takes into account what was already there before people began to get to work on it with their hard stone picks. At the top end there are many natural craters or depressions. Looming large among then, near the top edge, is a large scoured basin. This was almost certainly a natural feature, but the edges have been worked on and the basin shaped to make it a feature. There are similar signs that other depressions have been pecked or scoured, and as we follow these indentations down the slope, the edges of the naturally eroded part give way to cups and cups and rings. The slope had already produced erosion channels from water running down lines of weakness and hollows. These were exploited further.     The main central groove that almost reaches the end of triangular part of the edge begins as a cup from which a groove runs to a similar sized cup. Around it are two penannulars. Higher up the rock a similar motif is linked to the ring edge by the central curved groove. This leads right down to the rock to an offshoot groove that runs to the inner circle of four concentric rings around a cup, with an arc outside. The main groove curves slightly to run concentrically to these rings before it reaches the rock edge.    This long groove divides the rock in two. To the right are cups and rings with grooves running from central cups and surrounding rings, all linked together. Some cups do not have grooves running from them.    Although the left hand side design is based on a similar arrangement of cups surrounded by rings and by long grooves running from cups at the centre of rings, there is a unique variation in design that has produced what looks like a figure -of- eight. A cup from which a long groove leads down the rock is at the centre of five rings, three of which are made to flow in to a similar motif to the left. This has a cup and groove at the centre of five penannulars. A large serpentine groove arcs over the top rings of both motifs to unite them into one, and an extra radial groove from the centre of the right hand figure curves into the outer arc of the second. Two faint additional radial grooves run to the outer ring of the left-hand motif.    The right hand design completes its movement down the rock when the groove from the central cup reaches a cup at the centre of three broken rings; the groove continues down the rock from that cup.    The left hand figure has a crowd of motifs below it; one cup and ring connected to the main groove from the central cup, an arc at the centre of a large cup touches the outer ring, and is itself touched by the outer penannular of a cup and ring motif. This in turn is touched by a cup and ring linked by a groove above it to a cup and arc. Above the main motifs are some apparently incomplete motifs.    There is another feature that distinguishes this block as one of the most interesting ever found; horizontal lines of cups at the tallest end of the rock on its vertical face. This line turns the corner to extend the line east."

1087,1,"A large 'car sized' and possibly glacially deposited sandstone block showing evidence on all sides of quarrying activity. The table like, slightly sloping, top surface also bears quarry marks in preparation for further splitting the block. Two of the near vertical sides east and south are also marked each with a linear row of many regularly sized and shaped cups. Previously attributed to prehistory they may not be so proven. The upper surface is extravagant in quantity and quality of motif which flow from the natural weathering features evident at the top and cover almost the entire available area. [refer to motif notes].  Views to and from the panel are extensive to the east, south and north. The west is blocked by rising ground to the hill fort. Undoubtedly marked and re-marked over time this panel shows sensitivity and complexity apparent only in very few other decorated panels.  East face  Clear straight line of eight cups at southern end - possibly continues shallower cups shallower cups at northern end of line. Heavily pock marked area with at least 12 possibles or may be natural. The clear line of cups at the left (southern) side merges into a knobbly/pocked surface which is hard to distinguish whether prehistoric man-made/natural/quarrying. This is the eastern ""wall"" of the boulder. Art on the upper surface is also on sloping ""roof"" set back from this section and higher.    South face  13 cup marks depicted across the width of the pane.    Top face  There are many separate and linked motifs across much of the top surface.  The motifs include most of the motif cup and cup and ring repertoire, in a range of sizes.  Many of the motifs are interlinked together, and seem to run down from the top, southern part of the stone where there are many natural depressions, basins and weathering grooves.  The motifs can be separated into 22 single cups, 4 cup and grooves, 5 cup and single rings, and other mixed types.  Many of the motifs have the characteristics of cup and rings, as well grooves going through the cups and rings.  Some motifs appear to be very stylised, but appear on this panel alone."

1097,1,"An amazingly well-preserved  panel which has been covered by turf and heather cover and little disturbed. As an example of detailed cup and penannular design in pristine condition it is almost without peer.    The stone displays a beautifully and precisely carved cup and duct motif with multiple penannulars (six) carved into softer sandstone through a thin layer of hard and flat, almost crystalline, surface material. There are also four large cups, one of which has a ring, and another is noticeably conical in formation.     The incisions into the stone appear in some places to be made by a broader implement than a pecking tool. Straight edge cuts may be seen on more than one penannular. Pecking in other places, the contained cup and other penannular grooves, shows the small holes of a pointed implement.     The main duct is crossed at right angles by another groove that captures between it and the main motif, a well formed and deep cup at one side of the duct and an area of possibly damaged surface with indentations, to the other. Beyond this groove and either side of the continuing duct are two large and deep cups. One has a ring and is noticeably flat bottomed but without any lip to suggest natural formation. The other is large and deep with a conical profile. Other small cups and shallow grooves are visible.    Views are excellent to the east, north to Ros Castle and also south toward Ringses hill fort.

1107,1,"This panel has only been recorded, without illustrations, in literature sources.  The panel appears to have been found in ploughing operations of the mid-19th century.  As such the panel has entered the extensive archaeological literature on cists, as well as on rock art.  The exact site is unknown, and it is uncertain if anything of the panel and cist stones remain in the area.    It has been recorded as a ""stone-lined cist found several years ago on Mountain Farm, in or near to which was a sandstone slab, covered with a fine example of the incised circles"" (Dixon 1895: 8).  No dimensions of the cist, or indeed of the panel, have been recorded.  It is unclear where the capstone attribution of the panel, made in the Northumberland County History, volume 14, originated.  No grave goods were recorded by Dixon, though the Northumberland County History records a food vessel loosely attributed from a barrow in the relevant Whittingham parish.    The motifs were later recorded as ""a fine example"" (Dixon 1895: 8) in the 1890s. It is unknown if the panel had been removed from an outcrop source or had been specifically carved for the cist.      Later searches for the panel were made in the 1930s for the Northumberland County History, volume 14 and later by the Ordnance Survey.  These searches were without success and noted no indications of a barrow or cairn from the recorded location.  In 1895 D Dixon records this panel as 'covered with incised circles'.  It is possible that this may refer to ring marks alone, though the quantity is completely unknown."

Dixon also records ""incised stones"" which are not detailed, and not thought further rock art panels.  These flints recovered include what Dixon called a laurel leaf type arrowhead; this is likely a Neolithic leaf-shaped arrowhead.

There is no definite patterning observable, but there is a group of three in the centre of the face. The cup marks are all about 0.03 m to 0.05 m diameter and all quite shallow.    Geologically a mixed sandstone - igneous rock with a number of large crystals (of quartz?). This may be a conglomerate (as at Roddam Dene) or a Cementstone. The panel appears as an upright, but this is of little importance as a number of other similarly plough-scarred and tumbled stones moved in field clearance are also close by.  This assemblage is too loose and tumbled to be a clearance cairn, rather a clearance scatter. It might be supposed that it was found at or near the top of the field as there are similar wide verges elsewhere along field margins.  If this is so, then a wide view might be obtained into the valleys of the Aln and Coquet, in the distance Chirnells and Lordenshaw, and closer Scrainwood rock art sites are visible."

1148,1,"A small portable boulder. This small panel is impressive and very individual due to large cup size, pecking and the irregular grooved ring which encloses a cup and also incorporates a further small cup. The motifs include one very large 0.14 m diameter and 0.10 m cup, well-formed and situated centrally on the panel. Sides give impression of pecking down the full depth of the cup. A small indentation/notch in the cup lip may have a different timescale. A definite angular ring into which another much smaller cup sits encircles the main cup at approx. 0.12-0.15 m diameter.  A single well defined cup sits independently.  Width of groove varies 0.01-0.02 m.    The exterior stone may have been altered by quarrying or later shaping which almost interrupts the completion of a ring. Alternative use as a quern, trough, font etc were also considered. Another alternative interpretation regarding the central 'cup' and the stone is that it is a knocking stone, though this cannot explain the off-centre motifs and portions of motifs. Such stones were used in all archaeological periods, until comparatively recently, where cereals - usually barley and/or oats, were dehusked or generally pounded, before use with milk for meals or further milling procedures, with a hollow and wooden or stone pestle."
1149,10004,"The most likely place where the stone came from is a monument of some sort, possibly part of a burial cairn. The ridge to the north of the stream provides a likely site for such cairns, which would not be at the highest point, but visible for miles around."
1149,10006,"The drawing shows a cup and pennanular, the latter stopping at the edge. A large cup and a smaller one that may be a large pick-mark accompany it. Below are two well defined cups and some apparently incomplete linked depressions. Then comes a well-made cup and single ring, the ring running into a large cup on the edge of the rock. There is another small cup and three faint conjoined cups. On the downslope are two small cups or pickmarks."
1149,10011,"The road and trackway from Elilaw to Clennell Cottages runs roughly from east to west, with Biddlestone village and Harden Quarry to the north.

A stream that flows eastward, originated at Rookland, is the Netherton Burn, and it is on its north side that the stone lay, very close to the water. The stone was taken to Biddlestone Home Farm for its protection.    There is a great deal of loose dumped stone in the same area as the carved rock that has come from field clearance., so the most likely original location of the stone was in the field above.    The stone  (48 x 33 x 20 cm) is cushion-shaped, with the narrower edge on one side having all the markings. Other surfaces remain unworked, but the back of it shows that originally it may have been quarried from outcrop.  There is rounding of the edges that comes from exposure or other erosion."

1149,1,"The panel is a rectangular stone recently relocated and set upright beside the post of a fenced field adjacent to the farm house.    The motifs are on the upper gently undulating surface.  The panel appears quarried and the vertical sides of  the panel therefore bear no rock art motifs. The arc may appear broken by quarrying but this is not so. A surviving section shows no sign of the arc continuing.  The panel is well decorated for it's size and has been moved here - (though information from the owner establishes a connection with a panel from Wilkinson Park as it is likely both come from a field called Silverton).      The find spot is undulating ground beside an un-named stream from Rookland area to the East North-East.  The panel was discovered in walling operations there. and find spot established (at NT 9505 0775).   The cup marks are all the same size; those elaborated are of a similar size.  The complete ring around a cup mark is shallow, whilst the central cup mark is deep.  The cup with the arc is similar in this depth discrepancy and it may be speculated that this was an entire ring pre-quarrying."
1150,1,"Panel is among field clearance stones and probably not in original location.  However, there are suspicions the clearance may not all be modern and may represent ancient clearance or a barrow structure.  Views are good toward West and North-West but limited elsewhere.  A number of stones in the pile appear to have plough marks.  This panel has one definite and three faint cups, one of which has a groove.  The cup has a hollowed area also around it and the stone also bears marks of damage from a metal spike leaving small round indents."

Three of four have numerous and irregularly distributed very small indentations which could be large peck marks, but are more likely naturally formed. The indents appear to be restricted to the bowls and don't appear elsewhere on the panel. These large bowls may have been carved. There is similarity in dimension to motif seen at Lordenshaw. The vertical linear arrangement may be due to a weakness in strata allowing deformation. Proximity to nearby confirmed rock art, a possible cist and a number of clearance cairns promotes recording. Overall these are considered more likely to be natural because of large granular nature of the rock, two conjoined, and unusual large size."

1202,1,"This panel appears to have been found within a cave (not to be confused with an artificial cove monument).  It is unclear from the various reports if the motifs were carved on the floor or walls of the cave.  It is possible that this may have only been a shallow rock shelter or overhang.  The rock art motifs were first recorded with hindsight in 1859.  Neither the panel nor the cave itself has been illustrated, so it is unknown what the site looked like (though a number of parallels might be suggested).    The quarrying which ultimately destroyed the carvings was recorded in 1859, as having destroyed some of the motifs already.  A search of a small cave was made in the 1950s above the Cove Quarry.  This recorded no rock art motifs here, though it is unsure if this can have been the same cave/overhang/rock shelter as recorded in the 19th century.  The original record of the site by Tate refers to ??concentric circles with central hollows?? which would imply that they were cup and ring motifs.  This also implies that there were more than two central cup marks.  Nothing of the size of the motifs or the extent of the decorated surface(s) is known, but Tate implies that the motifs were carved within the cave.  It is unknown if the motifs were to be found on the floor or sides of the cave, since parallels for each are known."

There is a rise to the hillfort from the south west, then the land slopes away to the north east, finger-like, to the Whitton Burn.    This raised, prominent extension of the Simonside Hills reaches 268m.OD, and is made up of outcrop Fell sandstone, with only a thin layer of acidic soil.  There are patches of bright orange soil thrown up by rabbits, and a dark grey soil elsewhere.    The whole area has archaeology of many different periods, one of the most recent and most significant being the clearance of much of the land to the east for ?improvement? for the growing of grain on a regular close-running rig and furrow system.  This must have destroyed some surface archaeology, and may have resulted in some of the stone heaps that could also be prehistoric burial mounds.    Prominent on the hilltop is a ?fort?, a ditched Iron Age enclosure that has been re-used as a Romano-British settlement.  The slope southwards to the modern road and car park has many field walls, some of cobble and soil construction, and others of vertically--set sandstones.  Some of these walls cross one another, and represent different episodes in the use of the land.    The oldest features belong to the late Neolithic period, represented by cup and ring marked rocks over a wide area.  The motifs vary from simple cups to more complex ringed cups and grooves, but there is a characteristic regional phenomenon of long grooves or channels that follow the slope of the outcrop sheets on the east side of the hill.    It is impossible to date outcrop markings, but in this area three possible early bronze age cairns have been built on marked outcrop rock, showing that the latter are either contemporary or earlier, and also showing that the sites were already of great importance in the landscape before the cairns were added.    All the marked rocks in situ are at prominent viewpoints, some commanding many miles of territory.  A few cupped rocks in the hillfort allow the possibility that some marked surfaces may have been destroyed during its construction, and the medieval Deer Park wall may account for others being broken up and reused.  Modern quarrying has certainly taken its toll, especially on the north west, where masses of freestone have been removed, leaving holes in the ground like bomb craters, and the main block of rock art (2c) bears every sign of the quarrying process.

A few cupped rocks in the hillfort allow the possibility that some marked surfaces may have been destroyed during its construction, and the medieval Deer Park wall may account for others being broken up and reused.

The variety of levels of erosion found confirm prolonged usage of the same area.  Very large cup is nicely formed 0.12m diameter and deeply cut.

Its north west and south east flanks drop respectively to Whitton Dean, a tributary of the Coquet and to a narrow glaciated valley overlooked to the east by another outlying sandstone hill that rises to the same height as Lordenshaw.  There is a rise to the hillfort from the south west, then the land slopes away to the north east, finger-like, to the Whitton Burn.    This raised, prominent extension of the Simonside Hills reaches 268m.OD, and is made up of outcrop Fell sandstone, with only a thin layer of acidic soil.  There are patches of bright orange soil thrown up by rabbits, and a dark grey soil elsewhere.    The whole area has archaeology of many different periods, one of the most recent and most significant being the clearance of much of the land to the east for ?improvement? for the growing of grain on a regular close-running rig and furrow system.  This must have destroyed some surface archaeology, and may have resulted in some of the stone heaps that could also be prehistoric burial mounds.    Prominent on the hilltop is a ?fort?, a ditched Iron Age enclosure that has been re-used as a Romano-British settlement.  The slope southwards to the modern road and car park has many field walls, some of cobble and soil construction, and others of vertically--set sandstones.  Some of these walls cross one another, and represent different episodes in the use of the land.    The oldest features belong to the late Neolithic period, represented by cup and ring marked rocks over a wide area.  The motifs vary from simple cups to more complex ringed cups and grooves, but there is a characteristic regional phenomenon of long grooves or channels that follow the slope of the outcrop sheets on the east side of the hill.    It is impossible to date outcrop markings, but in this area three possible early bronze age cairns have been built on marked outcrop rock, showing that the latter are either contemporary or earlier, and also showing that the sites were already of great importance in the landscape before the cairns were added.    All the marked rocks in situ are at prominent viewpoints, some commanding many miles of territory.  A few cupped rocks in the hillfort allow the possibility that some marked surfaces may have been destroyed during its construction, and the medieval Deer Park wall may account for others being broken up and reused.  Modern quarrying has certainly taken its toll, especially on the north west, where masses of freestone have been removed, leaving holes in the ground like bomb craters, and the main block of rock art (2c) bears every sign of the quarrying process.  Add to that a network of other walls, including those for sheilings (temporary herds? houses and gardens), and it is likely that we have lost a large proportion of rock art."

Its north west and south east flanks drop respectively to Whitton Dean, a tributary of the Coquet and to a narrow glaciated valley overlooked to the east by another outlying sandstone hill that rises to the same height as Lordenshaw.  There is a rise to the hillfort from the south west, then the land slopes away to the north east, finger-like, to the Whitton Burn.    This raised, prominent extension of the Simonside Hills reaches 268m.OD, and is made up of outcrop Fell sandstone, with only a thin layer of acidic soil.  There are patches of bright orange soil thrown up by rabbits, and a dark grey soil elsewhere.    The whole area has archaeology of many different periods, one of the most recent and most significant being the clearance of much of the land to the east for ?improvement? for the growing of grain on a regular close-running rig and furrow system.  This must have destroyed some surface archaeology, and may have resulted in some of the stone heaps that could also be prehistoric burial mounds.    Prominent on the hilltop is a ?fort?, a ditched Iron Age enclosure that has been re-used as a Romano-British settlement.  The slope southwards to the modern road and car park has many field walls, some of cobble and soil construction, and others of vertically--set sandstones.  Some of these walls cross one another, and represent different episodes in the use of the land.    The oldest features belong to the late Neolithic period, represented by cup and ring marked rocks over a wide area.  The motifs vary from simple cups to more complex ringed cups and grooves, but there is a characteristic regional phenomenon of long grooves or channels that follow the slope of the outcrop sheets on the east side of the hill.    It is impossible to date outcrop markings, but in this area three possible early bronze age cairns have been built on marked outcrop rock, showing that the latter are either contemporary or earlier, and also showing that the sites were already of great importance in the landscape before the cairns were added.    All the marked rocks in situ are at prominent viewpoints, some commanding many miles of territory.  A few cupped rocks in the hillfort allow the possibility that some marked surfaces may have been destroyed during its construction, and the medieval Deer Park wall may account for others being broken up and reused.  Modern quarrying has certainly taken its toll, especially on the north west, where masses of freestone have been removed, leaving holes in the ground like bomb craters, and the main block of rock art (2c) bears every sign of the quarrying process.  Add to that a network of other walls, including those for sheilings (temporary herds? houses and gardens), and it is likely that we have lost a large proportion of rock art."
1227,10016,"The name 'Lordenshaw' (also Lordinshaw) is not clear in its origin, but may come from heavy  (Old French lourdin) ridge (Old English hou, which occurs as 'hoe', as in Prudhoe or Swinhoe, for example).

1227,2,"Panel appears within an earth and stone wall/alignment running northeast-southwest reminiscent of other Iron Age and Romano-British enclosure walls.  It is immediately adjacent to another rock art panel - North Lordenshaw 6l - and possible in situ rock art and cairns are noted nearby (and visible).    This area is moorland and rough grazing on Lordenshaw Hill?s northeastern flanks which extend as a broad spur of land.   The Whitton Burn and an unnamed stream to the east  define this area with deeply incised courses.  There are widespread outcrops across the terrace and slopes to the Whitton Burn.    There are a variety of views possible from the rock art in these areas, although the rising ground of Lordenshaw Hill and the undulating terrace, prevent all-round views.   Some rock art areas north of the River Coquet are visible, and a few parts of the main Coquet Valley.      The Bronze Age cairn cemetery in the East Lordenshaw group continues into this area; several low heaps of stone, two with exposed cists, are present, but no rock art.  On the ?terrace? further Bronze Age cairns, cist and standing stone have been recorded and this area has also seen later activities that may have significantly altered the rock art landscape present.  Various field boundaries can be seen; a low bank, incorporating two panels and other stones, is comparable to those at Lordenshaw proper and thought to be Romano-British.  Other banks overlie this, themselves constructed over, or incorporating carved panels. The Romano-British boundary is traceable, ending abruptly with the Post Medieval dyke/fence.  A stone sheep fold has been constructed nearby and may date from the Medieval period onwards.    Quarrying is noted across the whole area, leaving many sharp and sheer edges of remaining rock, and evidence of tool marks.  The dating of this is unknown, but likely Post Medieval and Modern.  It is possible that, if present, further rock art panels may have been removed, unwittingly, for use elsewhere.  There are stonewalls in the area and likely some quarrying will have been for immediate needs.

1234,10011,"Above North Lordenhaw 6i lies a small mound, which could be quarry upcast.    General introduction to Lordenshaw:    The sandstone promontory on which Lordenshaw stands is to the north east of the Simonside --Dove Crags range of hills.  Its north west and south east flanks drop respectively to Whitton Dean, a tributary of the Coquet and to a narrow glaciated valley overlooked to the east by another outlying sandstone hill that rises to the same height as Lordenshaw.  There is a rise to the hillfort from the south west, then the land slopes away to the north east, finger-like, to the Whitton Burn.    This raised, prominent extension of the Simonside Hills reaches 268m.OD, and is made up of outcrop Fell sandstone, with only a thin layer of acidic soil.  There are patches of bright orange soil thrown up by rabbits, and a dark grey soil elsewhere.    The whole area has archaeology of many different periods, one of the most recent and most significant being the clearance of much of the land to the east for ?improvement? for the growing of grain on a regular close-running rig and furrow system.  This must have destroyed some surface archaeology, and may have resulted in some of the stone heaps that could also be prehistoric burial mounds.    Prominent on the hilltop is a ?fort?, a ditched Iron Age enclosure that has been re-used as a Romano-British settlement.  The slope southwards to the modern road and car park has many field walls, some of cobble and soil construction, and others of vertically--set sandstones.  Some of these walls cross one another, and represent different episodes in the use of the land.    The oldest features belong to the late Neolithic period, represented by cup and ring marked rocks over a wide area.  The motifs vary from simple cups to more complex ringed cups and grooves, but there is a characteristic regional phenomenon of long grooves or channels that follow the slope of the outcrop sheets on the east side of the hill.    It is impossible to date outcrop markings, but in this area three possible early bronze age cairns have been built on marked outcrop rock, showing that the latter are either contemporary or earlier, and also showing that the sites were already of great importance in the landscape before the cairns were added.    All the marked rocks in situ are at prominent viewpoints, some commanding many miles of territory.  A few cupped rocks in the hillfort allow the possibility that some marked surfaces may have been destroyed during its construction, and the medieval Deer Park wall may account for others being broken up and reused.  Modern quarrying has certainly taken its toll, especially on the north west, where masses of freestone have been removed, leaving holes in the ground like bomb craters, and the main block of rock art (2c) bears every sign of the quarrying process.  Add to that a network of other walls, including those for sheilings (temporary herds? houses and gardens), and it is likely that we have lost a large proportion of rock art."
1234,10016,"The name 'Lordenshaw' (also Lordinshaw) is not clear in its origin, but may come from heavy  (Old French lourdin) ridge (Old English hou, which occurs as 'hoe', as in Prudhoe or Swinhoe, for example).

There are a variety of views possible from the rock art in these areas, although the rising ground of Lordenshaw Hill and the undulating terrace, prevent all-round views.   Some rock art areas north of the River Coquet are visible, and a few parts of the main Coquet Valley.      The Bronze Age cairn cemetery in the East Lordenshaw group continues into this area; several low heaps of stone, two with exposed cists, are present, but no rock art.  On the ?terrace? further Bronze Age cairns, cist and standing stone have been recorded and this area has also seen later activities that may have significantly altered the rock art landscape present.  Various field boundaries can be seen; a low bank, incorporating two panels and other stones, is comparable to those at Lordenshaw proper and thought to be Romano-British.  Other banks overlie this, themselves constructed over, or incorporating carved panels. The Romano-British boundary is traceable, ending abruptly with the Post Medieval dyke/fence.

Quarrying is noted across the whole area, leaving many sharp and sheer edges of remaining rock, and evidence of tool marks.  The dating of this is unknown, but likely Post Medieval and Modern.  It is possible that, if present, further rock art panels may have been removed, unwittingly, for use elsewhere.  There are stonewalls in the area and likely some quarrying will have been for immediate needs.

1234,4,Three countersunk cups and rings set into a basin.  The result has the appearance of two occuli.
1234,1,"A very large panel of exposed outcrop, very light in colour it is highly visible though flush with the ground. It is possible, indeed likely, that a large cairn occupied the site and the markings are on bedrock once covered by the cairn. Position is on the crest of the ridge and commands all round views blocked only slightly by rising ground to the west.     Motif comprises a range of rock art from simple cups, cups with rings, others with grooves and the overall impression of a designed arrangement taking in enhancements  to some natural weathered grooves. A small group of three cups appear to be a more recent addition. There is apparent design to the motifs which when drawn, look almost human in shape.    The enhanced grooves are similar to those of East Lordenshaw 4 panels, long and serpentine, probably following natural waterflow lines in the rock.  One channel shows pick marks or the affects of variable erosion. This channel is shallow and may well be unfinished. The grooves continue beyond the turf line. Significant variation in cup marks size and depth, and some are very shallow, almost imperceptible. Some of the small cup indicated in the Beckensall Archive could not be seen; perhaps due to exposure and erosion. An interesting feature is the carving of cups with rings in the base of a large, apparently eroded, basin with drainage channels. Unusual in that had the basin formed naturally through erosion the flat base would have been carved into to deepen the cups and rings and this is not the case as they appear in relief in relation to the bottom of the basin."

1240,1,"A bedrock outcrop, the first of three described as North Lordenshaw h,  described in the Beckensall Archive as displaying a number of artificially carved cups. Some were identified but the large bowl / basin may have formed naturally and without enhancement. One large elongated cup mark that is 0.13 m by 0.16 m; this is also deep, 0.05 m.  Random clusters of small depressions of 0.02 m size, are also visible as possible rock art motifs. In the first group three are in a triangle, in the second four possibly arranged together in a diamond.    This outcrop has been quarried to the western and southern edges, leaving an apparent 'rough out' for a large, 2 m, millstone with a prominent curved edge."

There is a rise to the hillfort from the south west, then the land slopes away to the north east, finger-like, to the Whitton Burn.    This raised, prominent extension of the Simonside Hills reaches 268m.OD, and is made up of outcrop Fell sandstone, with only a thin layer of acidic soil.  There are patches of bright orange soil thrown up by rabbits, and a dark grey soil elsewhere.    The whole area has archaeology of many different periods, one of the most recent and most significant being the clearance of much of the land to the east for ?improvement? for the growing of grain on a regular close-running rig and furrow system.  This must have destroyed some surface archaeology, and may have resulted in some of the stone heaps that could also be prehistoric burial mounds.

The oldest features belong to the late Neolithic period, represented by cup and ring marked rocks over a wide area.  The motifs vary from simple cups to more complex ringed cups and grooves, but there is a characteristic regional phenomenon of long grooves or channels that follow the slope of the outcrop sheets on the east side of the hill.    It is impossible to date outcrop markings, but in this area three possible early bronze age cairns have been built on marked outcrop rock, showing that the latter are either contemporary or earlier, and also showing that the sites were already of great importance in the landscape before the cairns were added.

A few cupped rocks in the hillfort allow the possibility that some marked surfaces may have been destroyed during its construction, and the medieval Deer Park wall may account for others being broken up and reused.

The motifs vary from simple cups to more complex ringed cups and grooves, but there is a characteristic regional phenomenon of long grooves or channels that follow the slope of the outcrop sheets on the east side of the hill.    It is impossible to date outcrop markings, but in this area three possible early bronze age cairns have been built on marked outcrop rock, showing that the latter are either contemporary or earlier, and also showing that the sites were already of great importance in the landscape before the cairns were added.    All the marked rocks in situ are at prominent viewpoints, some commanding many miles of territory.  A few cupped rocks in the hillfort allow the possibility that some marked surfaces may have been destroyed during its construction, and the medieval Deer Park wall may account for others being broken up and reused.

1253,10011,"General introduction to Lordenshaw:    The sandstone promontory on which Lordenshaw stands is to the north east of the Simonside --Dove Crags range of hills.  Its north west and south east flanks drop respectively to Whitton Dean, a tributary of the Coquet and to a narrow glaciated valley overlooked to the east by another outlying sandstone hill that rises to the same height as Lordenshaw.  There is a rise to the hillfort from the south west, then the land slopes away to the north east, finger-like, to the Whitton Burn.    This raised, prominent extension of the Simonside Hills reaches 268m.OD, and is made up of outcrop Fell sandstone, with only a thin layer of acidic soil.  There are patches of bright orange soil thrown up by rabbits, and a dark grey soil elsewhere.    The whole area has archaeology of many different periods, one of the most recent and most significant being the clearance of much of the land to the east for ?improvement? for the growing of grain on a regular close-running rig and furrow system.  This must have destroyed some surface archaeology, and may have resulted in some of the stone heaps that could also be prehistoric burial mounds.    Prominent on the hilltop is a ?fort?, a ditched Iron Age enclosure that has been re-used as a Romano-British settlement.  The slope southwards to the modern road and car park has many field walls, some of cobble and soil construction, and others of vertically--set sandstones.  Some of these walls cross one another, and represent different episodes in the use of the land.    The oldest features belong to the late Neolithic period, represented by cup and ring marked rocks over a wide area.  The motifs vary from simple cups to more complex ringed cups and grooves, but there is a characteristic regional phenomenon of long grooves or channels that follow the slope of the outcrop sheets on the east side of the hill.    It is impossible to date outcrop markings, but in this area three possible early bronze age cairns have been built on marked outcrop rock, showing that the latter are either contemporary or earlier, and also showing that the sites were already of great importance in the landscape before the cairns were added.    All the marked rocks in situ are at prominent viewpoints, some commanding many miles of territory.  A few cupped rocks in the hillfort allow the possibility that some marked surfaces may have been destroyed during its construction, and the medieval Deer Park wall may account for others being broken up and reused.  Modern quarrying has certainly taken its toll, especially on the north west, where masses of freestone have been removed, leaving holes in the ground like bomb craters, and the main block of rock art (2c) bears every sign of the quarrying process.  Add to that a network of other walls, including those for sheilings (temporary herds? houses and gardens), and it is likely that we have lost a large proportion of rock art."
1253,10016,"The name 'Lordenshaw' (also Lordinshaw) is not clear in its origin, but may come from heavy  (Old French lourdin) ridge (Old English hou, which occurs as 'hoe', as in Prudhoe or Swinhoe, for example).

1253,1,"This is a moderately sized piece of outcropping rock. It naturally undulates in gentle rising and falling portions smooth in natural un-modified profile. There are few natural features of note across the surface. The panel bears some decoration in the cup and ring repertoire: three single cup marks, a linked arrangement of cups and grooves and a regularly-shaped arc/groove. The three single cup marks are rounded and scattered across the surface. There are similarities in size and depth, as well as manufacture, between one of the single cup marks and one within the linked arrangement of three cups linked by two grooves. However, though quarried (possibly along the whole length of the western edge) the motifs are closely grouped near the centre of the panel, though the outcrop may continue on the other side of the wall to the north.    The panel is roughly central to a lengthy ridge top.  There is other rock art immediately beside the panel seemingly uninscribed.  The quarrying activity noted is unspecific to any items and it may be that the immediately adjacent wall may have been built with these materials.      Wide views are obtained either side of the ridge including much of the Coquet Valley.  Other rock art panels are known of nearby, as is a small cairn immediately north of the wall to the northeast.

Later searches for the panel(s) were made in the 1930s for the Northumberland County History, volume 15 and 1950s by the Ordnance Survey, though both of these were without success.  It is unclear if the recent Web Access to the Beckensall Archive visited the area, though the panel is recorded there in that project?s work.  Fieldwork carried out in this project searched along the public right of way from the road northeastwards.  This revealed a couple of likely clearance cairns, though not thought of any antiquity, in the field and loose stones along the adjacent burn slopes.    It is impossible to verify these claimed panels, though the original recorder is usually considered reliable for prehistoric finds, and also recorded the Ravensheugh panel  It is unclear how many motifs, indeed how many panels, should be recorded here.

A few cupped rocks in the hillfort allow the possibility that some marked surfaces may have been destroyed during its construction, and the medieval Deer Park wall may account for others being broken up and reused.  Modern quarrying has certainly taken its toll, especially on the north west, where masses of freestone have been removed, leaving holes in the ground like bomb craters, and the main block of rock art (2c) bears every sign of the quarrying process.

It may be that there has been more erosion here or that the markings were more tentative in the first place.

They were discovered by Mr Newbigin, who began his survey at an open cist, still visible, next to which a very small cist was more recently exposed (by persons unknown).

The oldest features belong to the late Neolithic period, represented by cup and ring marked rocks over a wide area.  The motifs vary from simple cups to more complex ringed cups and grooves, but there is a characteristic regional phenomenon of long grooves or channels that follow the slope of the outcrop sheets on the east side of the hill.    It is impossible to date outcrop markings, but in this area three possible early bronze age cairns have been built on marked outcrop rock, showing that the latter are either contemporary or earlier, and also showing that the sites were already of great importance in the landscape before the cairns were added.    All the marked rocks in situ are at prominent viewpoints, some commanding many miles of territory.  A few cupped rocks in the hillfort allow the possibility that some marked surfaces may have been destroyed during its construction, and the medieval Deer Park wall may account for others being broken up and reused.  Modern quarrying has certainly taken its toll, especially on the north west, where masses of freestone have been removed, leaving holes in the ground like bomb craters, and the main block of rock art (2c) bears every sign of the quarrying process.  Add to that a network of other walls, including those for sheilings (temporary herds? houses and gardens), and it is likely that we have lost a large proportion of rock art.    East Lordenshaw 5 notes:    The descent from the cairn towards the Whitton Burn before an area of fenced pasture is reached is heather--covered, with small protruding rock outcrops, hollow ways associated with recent quarrying, and small quarries.  It is also an area of occasional rock art (East Lordenshaw 5 panels), which is difficult to find and difficult to see.  It may be that there has been more erosion here or that the markings were more tentative in the first place.  They have been difficult to record, as some show up on careful rubbings but not with the naked eye.    They were discovered by Mr Newbigin, who began his survey at an open cist, still visible, next to which a very small cist was more recently exposed (by persons unknown).  D.Dixon had described the mound as being 32' diameter and 5' high, with no evidence of interment when it was excavated by Canon Greenwell.  Its circumference is still traceable, but removal of stone has almost flattened the mound."

Add to that a network of other walls, including those for sheilings (temporary herds? houses and gardens), and it is likely that we have lost a large proportion of rock art.    East Lordenshaw 4a-d notes:    The outcrops so far seen along the ridge prepare us for the massive series to come, spectacular when they are whitened by the sun.  The predominant motifs are large cups (or small basins) and long artificial grooves that run down the slopes into the ground.  They begin to the north of the wall that joins the Deer Park wall above it.    East Lordenshaw 4a-d are really all part of the same rock, split, with grass growing among the spaces.  Mr. Newbigin describes its discovery:    ""On first examination only a very small portion was visible, the bulk being completely filled in with turf.  The lower portion ran into ground.""  It was excavated, and left open.  He found a channel 30' (9m.) long, maximum depth 6"" (0.15m.), maximum width 8""(0.20m), the bottom generally rounded and smooth.  Its character was ""regularly maintained.""  He recorded 39 cups around the channel head, one being directly at the channel head and connected with it.  He mentions the other 26 scattered cups, and one with a single ring.  In all, he recorded 66 cups.    He counted 27 cups on the vertical face, mostly arranged in vertical rows, and four ducts in addition to the big channel, with some cups on the line of the ducts.  He added, ""There are six steps or slashes 7""-9"" long (0.18m-0.23m) in a horizontal line along the steep slope which appeared when soil was taken away from the lower part of the rock.    He mentions a ringed cup with ""faintly marked ducts running into each other at right angles, apparently unconnected with any of the cups"".    It is very important to have such information, and particularly to know that much of the rock was buried, the turf acting as a protection from erosion.    The vertical part, for example, was buried, and it is here where we see the unique device of making lines of cups like rows of buttons, some linked with grooves that start higher up the rock, or flanking these grooves.  Cups predominate, and the large channel begins with one and is surrounded by them."

Canon Greenwell first mentions it, and D Dixon quotes him as saying that it was 26' diameter, and 4' high.  The cist in the centre was made of four slabs, and had a cover.  It was completely filled with sand, with a little charcoal and two small pieces of pottery.    The cairn is still visible, with obvious digging at its centre, but what went unnoticed at the time was the fact that the cairn stands on cup-marked outcrop (East Lordenshaw 4g), and that one of the kerb stones is also cup-marked (East Lordenshaw 4j).    The cairn stands at a high point (NZ 00557 9942) with extensive views, especially to the north and north east, where the ridge slopes towards the steep-sided valley of the Whitton Burn before it joins the Coquet.  Scattered stone down this slope gives the appearance of a marked way, but as there has been quarry disturbance this may not be so. Despite its being a natural routeway.    Round barrows of the type that we see here usually belong to the Bronze Age, but because the cairn is built on decorated outcrop, the cairn may be later than the symbols or contemporary with them.  A piece of cup-marked stone in the kerb looks unlikely to be quarried outcrop.  Whatever the sequence of events, the site was chosen as an important part of the landscape, as a viewpoint and as part of a routeway."

1275,10004,"Above East Lordenshaw 4f east and west is a disturbed cairn, but at the top of the ridge is a more prominent cairn.  Canon Greenwell first mentions it, and D Dixon quotes him as saying that it was 26' diameter, and 4' high.  The cist in the centre was made of four slabs, and had a cover.  It was completely filled with sand, with a little charcoal and two small pieces of pottery.    The cairn is still visible, with obvious digging at its centre, but what went unnoticed at the time was the fact that the cairn stands on cup-marked outcrop (East Lordenshaw 4g), and that one of the kerb stones is also cup-marked (East Lordenshaw 4j).    The cairn stands at a high point (NZ 00557 9942) with extensive views, especially to the north and north east, where the ridge slopes towards the steep-sided valley of the Whitton Burn before it joins the Coquet.  Scattered stone down this slope gives the appearance of a marked way, but as there has been quarry disturbance this may not be so. Despite its being a natural routeway.    Round barrows of the type that we see here usually belong to the Bronze Age, but because the cairn is built on decorated outcrop, the cairn may be later than the symbols or contemporary with them.  A piece of cup-marked stone in the kerb looks unlikely to be quarried outcrop.  Whatever the sequence of events, the site was chosen as an important part of the landscape, as a viewpoint and as part of a routeway."

Its north west and south east flanks drop respectively to Whitton Dean, a tributary of the Coquet and to a narrow glaciated valley overlooked to the east by another outlying sandstone hill that rises to the same height as Lordenshaw.  There is a rise to the hillfort from the south west, then the land slopes away to the north east, finger-like, to the Whitton Burn.    This raised, prominent extension of the Simonside Hills reaches 268m.OD, and is made up of outcrop Fell sandstone, with only a thin layer of acidic soil.  There are patches of bright orange soil thrown up by rabbits, and a dark grey soil elsewhere.    The whole area has archaeology of many different periods, one of the most recent and most significant being the clearance of much of the land to the east for ?improvement? for the growing of grain on a regular close-running rig and furrow system.  This must have destroyed some surface archaeology, and may have resulted in some of the stone heaps that could also be prehistoric burial mounds.    Prominent on the hilltop is a ?fort?, a ditched Iron Age enclosure that has been re-used as a Romano-British settlement.  The slope southwards to the modern road and car park has many field walls, some of cobble and soil construction, and others of vertically--set sandstones.  Some of these walls cross one another, and represent different episodes in the use of the land.    The oldest features belong to the late Neolithic period, represented by cup and ring marked rocks over a wide area.  The motifs vary from simple cups to more complex ringed cups and grooves, but there is a characteristic regional phenomenon of long grooves or channels that follow the slope of the outcrop sheets on the east side of the hill.    It is impossible to date outcrop markings, but in this area three possible early bronze age cairns have been built on marked outcrop rock, showing that the latter are either contemporary or earlier, and also showing that the sites were already of great importance in the landscape before the cairns were added.    All the marked rocks in situ are at prominent viewpoints, some commanding many miles of territory.  A few cupped rocks in the hillfort allow the possibility that some marked surfaces may have been destroyed during its construction, and the medieval Deer Park wall may account for others being broken up and reused.  Modern quarrying has certainly taken its toll, especially on the north west, where masses of freestone have been removed, leaving holes in the ground like bomb craters, and the main block of rock art (2c) bears every sign of the quarrying process.

Add to that a network of other walls, including those for sheilings (temporary herds? houses and gardens), and it is likely that we have lost a large proportion of rock art.    East Lordenshaw 4a-d notes:    The outcrops so far seen along the ridge prepare us for the massive series to come, spectacular when they are whitened by the sun.  The predominant motifs are large cups (or small basins) and long artificial grooves that run down the slopes into the ground.  They begin to the north of the wall that joins the Deer Park wall above it.    East Lordenshaw 4a-d are really all part of the same rock, split, with grass growing among the spaces.  Mr. Newbigin describes its discovery:    ""On first examination only a very small portion was visible, the bulk being completely filled in with turf.  The lower portion ran into ground.""  It was excavated, and left open.  He found a channel 30' (9m.) long, maximum depth 6"" (0.15m.), maximum width 8""(0.20m), the bottom generally rounded and smooth.  Its character was ""regularly maintained.""  He recorded 39 cups around the channel head, one being directly at the channel head and connected with it.  He mentions the other 26 scattered cups, and one with a single ring.  In all, he recorded 66 cups.    He counted 27 cups on the vertical face, mostly arranged in vertical rows, and four ducts in addition to the big channel, with some cups on the line of the ducts.  He added, ""There are six steps or slashes 7""-9"" long (0.18m-0.23m) in a horizontal line along the steep slope which appeared when soil was taken away from the lower part of the rock.    He mentions a ringed cup with ""faintly marked ducts running into each other at right angles, apparently unconnected with any of the cups"".    It is very important to have such information, and particularly to know that much of the rock was buried, the turf acting as a protection from erosion.    The vertical part, for example, was buried, and it is here where we see the unique device of making lines of cups like rows of buttons, some linked with grooves that start higher up the rock, or flanking these grooves.  Cups predominate, and the large channel begins with one and is surrounded by them."

Its north west and south east flanks drop respectively to Whitton Dean, a tributary of the Coquet and to a narrow glaciated valley overlooked to the east by another outlying sandstone hill that rises to the same height as Lordenshaw.

This raised, prominent extension of the Simonside Hills reaches 268m.OD, and is made up of outcrop Fell sandstone, with only a thin layer of acidic soil.  There are patches of bright orange soil thrown up by rabbits, and a dark grey soil elsewhere.    The whole area has archaeology of many different periods, one of the most recent and most significant being the clearance of much of the land to the east for ?improvement? for the growing of grain on a regular close-running rig and furrow system.  This must have destroyed some surface archaeology, and may have resulted in some of the stone heaps that could also be prehistoric burial mounds.    Prominent on the hilltop is a ?fort?, a ditched Iron Age enclosure that has been re-used as a Romano-British settlement.

The oldest features belong to the late Neolithic period, represented by cup and ring marked rocks over a wide area.  The motifs vary from simple cups to more complex ringed cups and grooves, but there is a characteristic regional phenomenon of long grooves or channels that follow the slope of the outcrop sheets on the east side of the hill.    It is impossible to date outcrop markings, but in this area three possible early bronze age cairns have been built on marked outcrop rock, showing that the latter are either contemporary or earlier, and also showing that the sites were already of great importance in the landscape before the cairns were added.    All the marked rocks in situ are at prominent viewpoints, some commanding many miles of territory.  A few cupped rocks in the hillfort allow the possibility that some marked surfaces may have been destroyed during its construction, and the medieval Deer Park wall may account for others being broken up and reused.

Add to that a network of other walls, including those for sheilings (temporary herds? houses and gardens), and it is likely that we have lost a large proportion of rock art.    East Lordenshaw 4a-d notes:    The outcrops so far seen along the ridge prepare us for the massive series to come, spectacular when they are whitened by the sun.  The predominant motifs are large cups (or small basins) and long artificial grooves that run down the slopes into the ground.  They begin to the north of the wall that joins the Deer Park wall above it.    East Lordenshaw 4a-d are really all part of the same rock, split, with grass growing among the spaces.  Mr. Newbigin describes its discovery:    ""On first examination only a very small portion was visible, the bulk being completely filled in with turf.  The lower portion ran into ground.""  It was excavated, and left open.  He found a channel 30' (9m.) long, maximum depth 6"" (0.15m.), maximum width 8""(0.20m), the bottom generally rounded and smooth.  Its character was ""regularly maintained.""  He recorded 39 cups around the channel head, one being directly at the channel head and connected with it.  He mentions the other 26 scattered cups, and one with a single ring.  In all, he recorded 66 cups.    He counted 27 cups on the vertical face, mostly arranged in vertical rows, and four ducts in addition to the big channel, with some cups on the line of the ducts.  He added, ""There are six steps or slashes 7""-9"" long (0.18m-0.23m) in a horizontal line along the steep slope which appeared when soil was taken away from the lower part of the rock.    He mentions a ringed cup with ""faintly marked ducts running into each other at right angles, apparently unconnected with any of the cups"".    It is very important to have such information, and particularly to know that much of the rock was buried, the turf acting as a protection from erosion.    The vertical part, for example, was buried, and it is here where we see the unique device of making lines of cups like rows of buttons, some linked with grooves that start higher up the rock, or flanking these grooves.  Cups predominate, and the large channel begins with one and is surrounded by them."

Occasional rock outcrops break the bracken- and heather-covered slopes.  At the highest terrace edge the ground falls away southeast and rises more gently to the northeast.  Rock art is found scattered across the slopes and near the terrace edges.  Several springs in these slopes flow to the Whitton Burn and Coquet Valleys, which have incised deep courses through the hills.    Many views can be obtained across the area. The flattened, much modified, top of Lordenshaw Hill is the highest immediate point, whilst further slopes and terraces of the Fell Sandstone Group rise to the Simonside ridge.  The views from all the rock art locations include much of the sandstone group?s arc and the northwest slopes to the Whitton Burn, and more distantly, across Coquetdale, the Cheviot Hills.  Views southeast from some of the rock art are blocked by the slopes and terrace edges, though the highest locations also have distant views this way.  Other rock art areas visible include Football Cairn, Chirnells Moor, West Hills and Westcliffe House. The North and East Lordenshaw rock art areas are only partially visible.    Several monuments that might be Neolithic or Early Bronze Age have been identified. These include cairns located on both of the terrace edges. Two are thought to be burial cairns, likely Bronze Age, being situated at the false crest of the hill a situation typical for these monuments.  One of these is directly associated with the Horseshoe Panel, using the panel almost as a kerbstone.    Other cairns might result from clearance of fields created on the terrace ?levels?.  It is possible, though unproved, that these may date to the first period of Bronze Age agricultural clearance in the area.  A small settlement of round houses and enclosure walls of Iron Age-Romano-British date has been recorded on Birky Hill, where rock art panels have also been recorded.  An encircling ditch  incorporating further rock art panels runs around the top of the Lordenshaw Hill.    A stonewall runs across the area from the second terrace area and down the northwestern slopes.  This also incorporates rock art panels.  The wall is recorded as the boundary of Rothbury Forest, attested in Medieval documents, and joined by a series of sod cast dykes running along and across the lower terrace edge.  These boundaries define areas of rigg and furrow ploughing, with further clearance cairns and, in part, also explain the distribution of the rock art.    Quarrying ( thought to be Medieval or later) has taken place along some of the upper terrace edge, removing much rock and, in places, parts of rock art panels. This has resulted in extraction hollows northeast of the main panel, sheer and sharp edges of stone, and loose small waste stones.  Tool marks can also be seen in some of the stone remaining."

Several springs in these slopes flow to the Whitton Burn and Coquet Valleys, which have incised deep courses through the hills.    Many views can be obtained across the area. The flattened, much modified, top of Lordenshaw Hill is the highest immediate point, whilst further slopes and terraces of the Fell Sandstone Group rise to the Simonside ridge.  The views from all the rock art locations include much of the sandstone group?s arc and the northwest slopes to the Whitton Burn, and more distantly, across Coquetdale, the Cheviot Hills.  Views southeast from some of the rock art are blocked by the slopes and terrace edges, though the highest locations also have distant views this way.  Other rock art areas visible include Football Cairn, Chirnells Moor, West Hills and Westcliffe House. The North and East Lordenshaw rock art areas are only partially visible.    Several monuments that might be Neolithic or Early Bronze Age have been identified. These include cairns located on both of the terrace edges. Two are thought to be burial cairns, likely Bronze Age, being situated at the false crest of the hill a situation typical for these monuments.  One of these is directly associated with the Horseshoe Panel, using the panel almost as a kerbstone.    Other cairns might result from clearance of fields created on the terrace ?levels?.  It is possible, though unproved, that these may date to the first period of Bronze Age agricultural clearance in the area.  A small settlement of round houses and enclosure walls of Iron Age-Romano-British date has been recorded on Birky Hill, where rock art panels have also been recorded.  An encircling ditch  incorporating further rock art panels runs around the top of the Lordenshaw Hill.    A stonewall runs across the area from the second terrace area and down the northwestern slopes.  This also incorporates rock art panels.  The wall is recorded as the boundary of Rothbury Forest, attested in Medieval documents, and joined by a series of sod cast dykes running along and across the lower terrace edge.  These boundaries define areas of rigg and furrow ploughing, with further clearance cairns and, in part, also explain the distribution of the rock art.    Quarrying ( thought to be Medieval or later) has taken place along some of the upper terrace edge, removing much rock and, in places, parts of rock art panels. This has resulted in extraction hollows northeast of the main panel, sheer and sharp edges of stone, and loose small waste stones.  Tool marks can also be seen in some of the stone remaining."

The whole area has archaeology of many different periods, one of the most recent and most significant being the clearance of much of the land to the east for ?improvement? for the growing of grain on a regular close-running rig and furrow system.  This must have destroyed some surface archaeology, and may have resulted in some of the stone heaps that could also be prehistoric burial mounds.    Prominent on the hilltop is a ?fort?, a ditched Iron Age enclosure that has been re-used as a Romano-British settlement.

A few cupped rocks in the hillfort allow the possibility that some marked surfaces may have been destroyed during its construction, and the medieval Deer Park wall may account for others being broken up and reused.

He mentions the other 26 scattered cups, and one with a single ring.  In all, he recorded 66 cups.    He counted 27 cups on the vertical face, mostly arranged in vertical rows, and four ducts in addition to the big channel, with some cups on the line of the ducts.  He added, ""There are six steps or slashes 7""-9"" long (0.18m-0.23m) in a horizontal line along the steep slope which appeared when soil was taken away from the lower part of the rock.    He mentions a ringed cup with ""faintly marked ducts running into each other at right angles, apparently unconnected with any of the cups"".    It is very important to have such information, and particularly to know that much of the rock was buried, the turf acting as a protection from erosion.    The vertical part, for example, was buried, and it is here where we see the unique device of making lines of cups like rows of buttons, some linked with grooves that start higher up the rock, or flanking these grooves.

1292,2,"This moorland and rough grazing area lies on Lordenshaw Hill?s western flanks, and comprises a series of terraces in the Fell Sandstone Group arc.  Occasional rock outcrops break the bracken- and heather-covered slopes.  At the highest terrace edge the ground falls away southeast and rises more gently to the northeast.  Rock art is found scattered across the slopes and near the terrace edges.  Several springs in these slopes flow to the Whitton Burn and Coquet Valleys, which have incised deep courses through the hills.    Many views can be obtained across the area. The flattened, much modified, top of Lordenshaw Hill is the highest immediate point, whilst further slopes and terraces of the Fell Sandstone Group rise to the Simonside ridge.  The views from all the rock art locations include much of the sandstone group?s arc and the northwest slopes to the Whitton Burn, and more distantly, across Coquetdale, the Cheviot Hills.  Views southeast from some of the rock art are blocked by the slopes and terrace edges, though the highest locations also have distant views this way.  Other rock art areas visible include Football Cairn, Chirnells Moor, West Hills and Westcliffe House. The North and East Lordenshaw rock art areas are only partially visible.    Several monuments that might be Neolithic or Early Bronze Age have been identified. These include cairns located on both of the terrace edges. Two are thought to be burial cairns, likely Bronze Age, being situated at the false crest of the hill a situation typical for these monuments.  One of these is directly associated with the Horseshoe Panel, using the panel almost as a kerbstone.    Other cairns might result from clearance of fields created on the terrace ?levels?.  It is possible, though unproved, that these may date to the first period of Bronze Age agricultural clearance in the area.  A small settlement of round houses and enclosure walls of Iron Age-Romano-British date has been recorded on Birky Hill, where rock art panels have also been recorded.  An encircling ditch  incorporating further rock art panels runs around the top of the Lordenshaw Hill.    A stonewall runs across the area from the second terrace area and down the northwestern slopes.  This also incorporates rock art panels.  The wall is recorded as the boundary of Rothbury Forest, attested in Medieval documents, and joined by a series of sod cast dykes running along and across the lower terrace edge.  These boundaries define areas of rigg and furrow ploughing, with further clearance cairns and, in part, also explain the distribution of the rock art.    Quarrying ( thought to be Medieval or later) has taken place along some of the upper terrace edge, removing much rock and, in places, parts of rock art panels. This has resulted in extraction hollows northeast of the main panel, sheer and sharp edges of stone, and loose small waste stones.  Tool marks can also be seen in some of the stone remaining."

Northern edge appears to have been upright at one time evidenced by the erosion grooves in between bedding planes.

He says that turf was removed and 'one or two of the mounds' were excavated.  The marked slab is at the foot of such a mound, placed at a steep slope.  He trenched the mound from west to east 'right down to the moor-band', which was undisturbed.  He favoured a late eighteenth to early nineteenth--century origin of the mound for it lies in the 'Old Improvement? on the parish map.    He excavated two other mounds and drew a blank. His photograph of the mound and rock shows the decorated slab well clear of the smaller stones, but they have crept back.    The slab may be detached outcrop, and lies on the lowest ridge of the hillside, the last panel of rock art before the valley bottom is reached.

This moorland and rough grazing area lies on Lordenshaw Hill?s western flanks, and comprises a series of terraces in the Fell Sandstone Group arc.  Occasional rock outcrops break the bracken- and heather-covered slopes.  At the highest terrace edge the ground falls away southeast and rises more gently to the northeast.  Rock art is found scattered across the slopes and near the terrace edges.  Several springs in these slopes flow to the Whitton Burn and Coquet Valleys, which have incised deep courses through the hills.    Many views can be obtained across the area. The flattened, much modified, top of Lordenshaw Hill is the highest immediate point, whilst further slopes and terraces of the Fell Sandstone Group rise to the Simonside ridge.  The views from all the rock art locations include much of the sandstone group?s arc and the northwest slopes to the Whitton Burn, and more distantly, across Coquetdale, the Cheviot Hills.  Views southeast from some of the rock art are blocked by the slopes and terrace edges, though the highest locations also have distant views this way.  Other rock art areas visible include Football Cairn, Chirnells Moor, West Hills and Westcliffe House. The North and East Lordenshaw rock art areas are only partially visible.    Several monuments that might be Neolithic or Early Bronze Age have been identified. These include cairns located on both of the terrace edges. Two are thought to be burial cairns, likely Bronze Age, being situated at the false crest of the hill a situation typical for these monuments.  One of these is directly associated with the Horseshoe Panel, using the panel almost as a kerbstone.    Other cairns might result from clearance of fields created on the terrace ?levels?.  It is possible, though unproved, that these may date to the first period of Bronze Age agricultural clearance in the area.  A small settlement of round houses and enclosure walls of Iron Age-Romano-British date has been recorded on Birky Hill, where rock art panels have also been recorded.  An encircling ditch  incorporating further rock art panels runs around the top of the Lordenshaw Hill.    A stonewall runs across the area from the second terrace area and down the northwestern slopes.  This also incorporates rock art panels.  The wall is recorded as the boundary of Rothbury Forest, attested in Medieval documents, and joined by a series of sod cast dykes running along and across the lower terrace edge.  These boundaries define areas of rigg and furrow ploughing, with further clearance cairns and, in part, also explain the distribution of the rock art.    Quarrying ( thought to be Medieval or later) has taken place along some of the upper terrace edge, removing much rock and, in places, parts of rock art panels. This has resulted in extraction hollows northeast of the main panel, sheer and sharp edges of stone, and loose small waste stones.  Tool marks can also be seen in some of the stone remaining."

Its north west and south east flanks drop respectively to Whitton Dean, a tributary of the Coquet and to a narrow glaciated valley overlooked to the east by another outlying sandstone hill that rises to the same height as Lordenshaw.  There is a rise to the hillfort from the south west, then the land slopes away to the north east, finger-like, to the Whitton Burn.    This raised, prominent extension of the Simonside Hills reaches 268m.OD, and is made up of outcrop Fell sandstone, with only a thin layer of acidic soil.  There are patches of bright orange soil thrown up by rabbits, and a dark grey soil elsewhere.    The whole area has archaeology of many different periods, one of the most recent and most significant being the clearance of much of the land to the east for ?improvement? for the growing of grain on a regular close-running rig and furrow system.  This must have destroyed some surface archaeology, and may have resulted in some of the stone heaps that could also be prehistoric burial mounds.    Prominent on the hilltop is a ?fort?, a ditched Iron Age enclosure that has been re-used as a Romano-British settlement.  The slope southwards to the modern road and car park has many field walls, some of cobble and soil construction, and others of vertically--set sandstones.  Some of these walls cross one another, and represent different episodes in the use of the land.    The oldest features belong to the late Neolithic period, represented by cup and ring marked rocks over a wide area.

There are patches of bright orange soil thrown up by rabbits, and a dark grey soil elsewhere.    The whole area has archaeology of many different periods, one of the most recent and most significant being the clearance of much of the land to the east for ?improvement? for the growing of grain on a regular close-running rig and furrow system.  This must have destroyed some surface archaeology, and may have resulted in some of the stone heaps that could also be prehistoric burial mounds.    Prominent on the hilltop is a ?fort?, a ditched Iron Age enclosure that has been re-used as a Romano-British settlement.

This moorland and rough grazing area lies on Lordenshaw Hill?s western flanks, and comprises a series of terraces in the Fell Sandstone Group arc.  Occasional rock outcrops break the bracken- and heather-covered slopes.  At the highest terrace edge the ground falls away southeast and rises more gently to the northeast.  Rock art is found scattered across the slopes and near the terrace edges.  Several springs in these slopes flow to the Whitton Burn and Coquet Valleys, which have incised deep courses through the hills.    Many views can be obtained across the area. The flattened, much modified, top of Lordenshaw Hill is the highest immediate point, whilst further slopes and terraces of the Fell Sandstone Group rise to the Simonside ridge.  The views from all the rock art locations include much of the sandstone group?s arc and the northwest slopes to the Whitton Burn, and more distantly, across Coquetdale, the Cheviot Hills.  Views southeast from some of the rock art are blocked by the slopes and terrace edges, though the highest locations also have distant views this way.  Other rock art areas visible include Football Cairn, Chirnells Moor, West Hills and Westcliffe House. The North and East Lordenshaw rock art areas are only partially visible.

Two are thought to be burial cairns, likely Bronze Age, being situated at the false crest of the hill a situation typical for these monuments.  One of these is directly associated with the Horseshoe Panel, using the panel almost as a kerbstone.    Other cairns might result from clearance of fields created on the terrace ?levels?.  It is possible, though unproved, that these may date to the first period of Bronze Age agricultural clearance in the area.  A small settlement of round houses and enclosure walls of Iron Age-Romano-British date has been recorded on Birky Hill, where rock art panels have also been recorded.  An encircling ditch  incorporating further rock art panels runs around the top of the Lordenshaw Hill.    A stonewall runs across the area from the second terrace area and down the northwestern slopes.  This also incorporates rock art panels.  The wall is recorded as the boundary of Rothbury Forest, attested in Medieval documents, and joined by a series of sod cast dykes running along and across the lower terrace edge.  These boundaries define areas of rigg and furrow ploughing, with further clearance cairns and, in part, also explain the distribution of the rock art.    Quarrying ( thought to be Medieval or later) has taken place along some of the upper terrace edge, removing much rock and, in places, parts of rock art panels. This has resulted in extraction hollows northeast of the main panel, sheer and sharp edges of stone, and loose small waste stones.  Tool marks can also be seen in some of the stone remaining."

1314,10011,"General Introduction to Lordenshaw:    The sandstone promontory on which Lordenshaw stands is to the north east of the Simonside --Dove Crags range of hills.  Its north west and south east flanks drop respectively to Whitton Dean, a tributary of the Coquet and to a narrow glaciated valley overlooked to the east by another outlying sandstone hill that rises to the same height as Lordenshaw.  There is a rise to the hillfort from the south west, then the land slopes away to the north east, finger-like, to the Whitton Burn.    This raised, prominent extension of the Simonside Hills reaches 268m.OD, and is made up of outcrop Fell sandstone, with only a thin layer of acidic soil.  There are patches of bright orange soil thrown up by rabbits, and a dark grey soil elsewhere.    The whole area has archaeology of many different periods, one of the most recent and most significant being the clearance of much of the land to the east for ?improvement? for the growing of grain on a regular close-running rig and furrow system.  This must have destroyed some surface archaeology, and may have resulted in some of the stone heaps that could also be prehistoric burial mounds.    Prominent on the hilltop is a ?fort?, a ditched Iron Age enclosure that has been re-used as a Romano-British settlement.  The slope southwards to the modern road and car park has many field walls, some of cobble and soil construction, and others of vertically--set sandstones.  Some of these walls cross one another, and represent different episodes in the use of the land.    The oldest features belong to the late Neolithic period, represented by cup and ring marked rocks over a wide area.  The motifs vary from simple cups to more complex ringed cups and grooves, but there is a characteristic regional phenomenon of long grooves or channels that follow the slope of the outcrop sheets on the east side of the hill.    It is impossible to date outcrop markings, but in this area three possible early bronze age cairns have been built on marked outcrop rock, showing that the latter are either contemporary or earlier, and also showing that the sites were already of great importance in the landscape before the cairns were added.    All the marked rocks in situ are at prominent viewpoints, some commanding many miles of territory.  A few cupped rocks in the hillfort allow the possibility that some marked surfaces may have been destroyed during its construction, and the medieval Deer Park wall may account for others being broken up and reused.  Modern quarrying has certainly taken its toll, especially on the north west, where masses of freestone have been removed, leaving holes in the ground like bomb craters, and the main block of rock art (2c) bears every sign of the quarrying process.  Add to that a network of other walls, including those for sheilings (temporary herds? houses and gardens), and it is likely that we have lost a large proportion of rock art.    East Lordenshaw 3 notes:    The East Lordenshaw 3 panels are associated with associated with the hollow ways, but the markings most probably preceded its construction.  Other marked rocks in this area are mainly sheet outcrops that continue below the eastern line of the hillfort along the valley to the Coquet.  This outcrop ridge, quarried in places, is a dramatic feature of the area, and the exposed rock is grey to white. The exposure of sloping sandstone has led prehistoric people think of making long grooves and channels, together with large cups and cups and rings - characteristics that extend to the sites overlooking the Whitton Burn as it joins the Coquet, and the old golf course to the north.    The ridge provides a continuous viewpoint not only along the valley itself in both directions, but to the Cartington--Skirlaw pike--Longframlington Common ranges.  Some of the view south west is limited by the rising ground to the east which used to have many cairns on top.  The valley has been cleared and cultivated, but it still has an alignment of small standing stones and some cairns that could be either for burial or from agricultural clearance.    The west ridge above these outcrops has burial cairns, one standing on decorated outcrop, and there is a line of stones from the hillfort north east on the downslope of the ridge.  All the marked rocks lie to the east to north east of this spine.  None has been found to the north west, and the West Lordenshaw 1 and 2 panels, already described, mark the limit of rocks with motifs on that side.    It is an exhilarating landscape, full of interest.  Cragside with its planted acres and Victorian house is prominent, with the high heather moorland beyond, where other survivals of prehistory are found, such as the Debdon Whitefield village of round houses, the cairnfield on Longframlington Common, and more rock art and cairns on Cartington."

1316,10011,"On Simonside was a large cairn at Ravensheugh; Mr D Dixon (1903) was at the excavation of the site which he described as ?just below two sturdy stones, called by the country people Kate and Geordie.? It stood on a projecting ridge with a steep slope in front and Ravensheugh rising behind. The kerbed cairn measured 27? from east to west and 30? north to south. Ten feet from its apex was a cist of four slabs of freestone with a massive capstone. There was no trace of burial.     ?Near the centre of the cairn a pit-marked stone was met with.? It was cup-marked, and now lost."

The panel was found near the centre of the cairn, seemingly as part of the cairn?s body.    The panel was recorded as a ""pit marked stone"" in the initial report of discovery, and later works. The panel was photographed for D D Dixon?s report and also his famed Upper Coquetdale - though both without a scale. A further photograph has been located in the archival collections of The Society of Antiquaries of Newcastle upon Tyne (at the Northumberland Records Office: SANT/PHO/PRI/OBJ/2/7), with others of pottery vessels from the same site, which had been cropped for Dixon?s own published pictures. This shows the panel in Cragside country house - unfortunately without a helpful item for scale. The panel remains lost and has not been located within the Cragside collections of The National Trust.    From the photographs it appears to have been a panel, with four single cup marks, possibly with a scalloped edge thought, elsewhere, indicative of prehistoric quarrying.  The motifs do not appear to cut across the edges of the panel, and could indicate that the panel was created from an existing boulder, and portable, panel. Dixon noted his belief, though not held by all the excavators, that all four depressions were to be recorded as single cup marks.    The cairn was located on a knoll or projecting ridge, above steep slopes to the north and east, as well as below further slopes to the south and west.  Dixon records that the cairn site was under the shadow of the main Fell Sandstone Group arc, having good views of the Chesterhopeburn and larger River Coquet valleys, and beyond to the Cheviot Hills.  In part these views will be obscured as the area is now largely tree-covered."

A natural channel runs down the centre of a triangular shape, but the north and west faces have been quarried off.  To the south of the channel the natural surface of the rock dictates the kinds of motifs that have been pecked on, and although no cup is surrounded by more than three grooves, the effect is of a complex arrangement of symbols.  Where the surface flattens out to the south, the part that juts out is covered with cups, with only one or two small grooves added.  There is a well--made central cup with groove running from it, surrounded by three concentric circles, but other similar complex figures are incomplete, and some eroded.  Ridges in the rock have been well-utilised, for natural irregularities have suggested how they can be used with the general repertoire of symbols.  This ensures that the art blends with the living rock and the landscape beyond it.    The north surface has motifs on the vertical face, showing that this part has not been quarried, but on the west edge a nice interconnected set of cups and rings has been chopped through. The 'tails' of three of these figures follow the slope north eastwards: the grooves over the whole rock similarly follow the downslope, no matter in what direction.

It is a dominant viewpoint, with the whole range of Simonside and Cheviots visible, and to the north east the land rises gently to the hillfort.    It is unlikely to have been the only marked outcrop along this ridge, for just to the north is a massive quarry hole from which a similar sized block has been removed.  Wedge marks in a line on the western edge and broken motifs show one technique involved in breaking off pieces of rock, for wooden wedges were inserted, water poured on, and the resulting stress of expansion split the rock.    This impressive rock has been vandalised, a rare occurrence in modern times, by someone chipping a design and the words 'Rock Map', a misguided and arrogant assumption that this is what it was.

1318,2,"Iron Age hillfort  is visible within 200m.    This moorland and rough grazing area lies on Lordenshaw Hill?s western flanks, and comprises a series of terraces in the Fell Sandstone Group arc.  Occasional rock outcrops break the bracken- and heather-covered slopes.  At the highest terrace edge the ground falls away southeast and rises more gently to the northeast.  Rock art is found scattered across the slopes and near the terrace edges.  Several springs in these slopes flow to the Whitton Burn and Coquet Valleys, which have incised deep courses through the hills.    Many views can be obtained across the area. The flattened, much modified, top of Lordenshaw Hill is the highest immediate point, whilst further slopes and terraces of the Fell Sandstone Group rise to the Simonside ridge.  The views from all the rock art locations include much of the sandstone group?s arc and the northwest slopes to the Whitton Burn, and more distantly, across Coquetdale, the Cheviot Hills.  Views southeast from some of the rock art are blocked by the slopes and terrace edges, though the highest locations also have distant views this way.  Other rock art areas visible include Football Cairn, Chirnells Moor, West Hills and Westcliffe House. The North and East Lordenshaw rock art areas are only partially visible.    Several monuments that might be Neolithic or Early Bronze Age have been identified. These include cairns located on both of the terrace edges. Two are thought to be burial cairns, likely Bronze Age, being situated at the false crest of the hill a situation typical for these monuments.  One of these is directly associated with the Horseshoe Panel, using the panel almost as a kerbstone.    Other cairns might result from clearance of fields created on the terrace ?levels?.  It is possible, though unproved, that these may date to the first period of Bronze Age agricultural clearance in the area.  A small settlement of round houses and enclosure walls of Iron Age-Romano-British date has been recorded on Birky Hill, where rock art panels have also been recorded.  An encircling ditch  incorporating further rock art panels runs around the top of the Lordenshaw Hill.    A stonewall runs across the area from the second terrace area and down the northwestern slopes.  This also incorporates rock art panels.  The wall is recorded as the boundary of Rothbury Forest, attested in Medieval documents, and joined by a series of sod cast dykes running along and across the lower terrace edge.  These boundaries define areas of rigg and furrow ploughing, with further clearance cairns and, in part, also explain the distribution of the rock art.    Quarrying ( thought to be Medieval or later) has taken place along some of the upper terrace edge, removing much rock and, in places, parts of rock art panels. This has resulted in extraction hollows northeast of the main panel, sheer and sharp edges of stone, and loose small waste stones.  Tool marks can also be seen in some of the stone remaining."

1318,1,"This is a huge piece of rock bearing many prehistoric motifs.  This is despite the determined efforts of quarrymen to remove portions of it in more recent times.  The shape and size of the original panel is unknown ? though the appearance of truncated motifs to the very edge of the panel implies the quarried sections were carved. The remaining portion has sheer and sharp faces on the northeastern, southern and western sides. It tilts unevenly across the whole surface from west to east, with continual undulations and localised higher areas.  There is a large natural bowl at the northern end.  The surrounding loose stones and lower portions attached to the main rock are the result of the quarrying and are undecorated, with one exception.     Much of the tilted surface of the rock has many rock art motifs across it.  Two further carvings are of note ? an apparent cup and ring outline, and the inscription ?ROCK MAP? appear to be graffiti of comparatively recent date.     A range of motif types is also echoed by the variety of motif positions; some occupy prominent positions at the top, others nearer the base.  Various levels of the rock have been inscribed with various motifs; in some cases it is possible that differential weathering has meant the loss of motifs. A number of natural basins and grooves have been used with the motifs.  Traces of pronounced weathering can also be seen at the highest parts of the rock.    No specific details of the size and decoration of the panel are known from the 19th century records of the stone.  These note only the bulk and decoration of the stone generally.  The panel is situated at the crest of one of the higher terraces to the southwest of Lordenshaw Hill, with other rocky outcrops along the ridge.  The ground slopes off the terrace to give views to further terraces and valleys to western aspects, and along the inner, steeper and crag-broken, arc of the Fell Sandstone Group.  These views include other rock panels on the same terrace edge, the Birky Hill and Horseshoe rock art panel group areas on the first terrace below, before more distant rock art areas of West Hills, Chirnells Moor and the Football Cairn areas on the other side of the Coquet.  Further afield the more distant Cheviot Hills can be seen across the valley.      Evidence of the quarrying that took place of the terrace edge can be found as quarrying hollows and loose blocks, sheer and sharp faces of rock, are all near this panel.  Further elements of the Medieval and Post Medieval landscape are also nearby."

1319,10011,"General Introduction to Lordenshaw:    The sandstone promontory on which Lordenshaw stands is to the north east of the Simonside --Dove Crags range of hills.  Its north west and south east flanks drop respectively to Whitton Dean, a tributary of the Coquet and to a narrow glaciated valley overlooked to the east by another outlying sandstone hill that rises to the same height as Lordenshaw.  There is a rise to the hillfort from the south west, then the land slopes away to the north east, finger-like, to the Whitton Burn.    This raised, prominent extension of the Simonside Hills reaches 268m.OD, and is made up of outcrop Fell sandstone, with only a thin layer of acidic soil.  There are patches of bright orange soil thrown up by rabbits, and a dark grey soil elsewhere.    The whole area has archaeology of many different periods, one of the most recent and most significant being the clearance of much of the land to the east for ?improvement? for the growing of grain on a regular close-running rig and furrow system.  This must have destroyed some surface archaeology, and may have resulted in some of the stone heaps that could also be prehistoric burial mounds.    Prominent on the hilltop is a ?fort?, a ditched Iron Age enclosure that has been re-used as a Romano-British settlement.  The slope southwards to the modern road and car park has many field walls, some of cobble and soil construction, and others of vertically--set sandstones.  Some of these walls cross one another, and represent different episodes in the use of the land.    The oldest features belong to the late Neolithic period, represented by cup and ring marked rocks over a wide area.  The motifs vary from simple cups to more complex ringed cups and grooves, but there is a characteristic regional phenomenon of long grooves or channels that follow the slope of the outcrop sheets on the east side of the hill.    It is impossible to date outcrop markings, but in this area three possible early bronze age cairns have been built on marked outcrop rock, showing that the latter are either contemporary or earlier, and also showing that the sites were already of great importance in the landscape before the cairns were added.    All the marked rocks in situ are at prominent viewpoints, some commanding many miles of territory.  A few cupped rocks in the hillfort allow the possibility that some marked surfaces may have been destroyed during its construction, and the medieval Deer Park wall may account for others being broken up and reused.  Modern quarrying has certainly taken its toll, especially on the north west, where masses of freestone have been removed, leaving holes in the ground like bomb craters, and the main block of rock art (2c) bears every sign of the quarrying process.  Add to that a network of other walls, including those for sheilings (temporary herds? houses and gardens), and it is likely that we have lost a large proportion of rock art.    East Lordenshaw 3 notes:    The East Lordenshaw 3 panels are associated with associated with the hollow ways, but the markings most probably preceded its construction.  Other marked rocks in this area are mainly sheet outcrops that continue below the eastern line of the hillfort along the valley to the Coquet.  This outcrop ridge, quarried in places, is a dramatic feature of the area, and the exposed rock is grey to white. The exposure of sloping sandstone has led prehistoric people think of making long grooves and channels, together with large cups and cups and rings - characteristics that extend to the sites overlooking the Whitton Burn as it joins the Coquet, and the old golf course to the north.    The ridge provides a continuous viewpoint not only along the valley itself in both directions, but to the Cartington--Skirlaw pike--Longframlington Common ranges.  Some of the view south west is limited by the rising ground to the east which used to have many cairns on top.  The valley has been cleared and cultivated, but it still has an alignment of small standing stones and some cairns that could be either for burial or from agricultural clearance.    The west ridge above these outcrops has burial cairns, one standing on decorated outcrop, and there is a line of stones from the hillfort north east on the downslope of the ridge.  All the marked rocks lie to the east to north east of this spine.  None has been found to the north west, and the West Lordenshaw 1 and 2 panels, already described, mark the limit of rocks with motifs on that side.    It is an exhilarating landscape, full of interest.  Cragside with its planted acres and Victorian house is prominent, with the high heather moorland beyond, where other survivals of prehistory are found, such as the Debdon Whitefield village of round houses, the cairnfield on Longframlington Common, and more rock art and cairns on Cartington.    All these basins (associated with some of East Lordenshaw 3i) were reported by Mr E R Newbigin in a paper that he read in 1931.  He and his friends discovered the whole eastern range of marked rocks, mainly by uncovering them.  He had the same problem of distinguishing between natural and artificial markings.  He did not draw the rocks, but photographed many, and described their locations. The written account is in Archaeologia Aeliana 4 .1X. 50-67. Notes on a series of Unrecorded Incised Rocks at Lordenshaw, and this was summarised in Northumberland County History, Vol.15.    East Lordenshaw 3(i) begins a preference for marking long grooves down the rock that continues along the rest of the ridge.  Here we are in no doubt, as the channel heads begin with cups, and cups cluster around the heads.  There are seven such cups around the central channel, and a faint cup and ring begins another.  There are two basins within the channels, and these may have been natural, but enhanced.  The outcrop sheet slopes steeply to the east valley.  It is just below a ridge."
1319,10016,"The name 'Lordenshaw' (also Lordinshaw) is not clear in its origin, but may come from heavy  (Old French lourdin) ridge (Old English hou, which occurs as 'hoe', as in Prudhoe or Swinhoe, for example).  The other meaning of 'shaw' is a wood. If the first derivation is correct it means that the ridge was unproductive, for 'heavy' was used as a term of complaint."

1319,2,"This moorland and rough grazing area is Lordenshaw Hill?s eastern flank in the Fell Sandstone Group main arc.  The bracken- and heather-covered slopes have a few rock outcrops breaking through.  The ground falls away eastwards, before rising to the west-facing, craggy outcrops and boulder-strewn Garleigh Moor.  Rock art is found across the slopes.     Many views can be obtained across the area over lower ground.   The views north and south extend to the lower ground through the valley to the flanks of the Fell Sandstone Group main arc, mainly grassland and plantations, and the Simonside ridge can be seen southwest.     A Bronze Age round cairn cemetery on the northeastern slope skirts around Lordenshaw Hill, andexcavation has revealed  inhumations, pottery and charcoal. This cemetery extends northwards to the North Lordenshaw rock art area on flatter ground,  the cairns intermingling with outcropping rocks.  The highest cairn incorporates rock art panels in its kerbstones, though other cairns don?t include any other rock art panels.     Agricultural clearance  has taken place on the gentler slopes.  Several small cairns may be Bronze Age in date, relating to the initial clearance of the ground. Several boundaries, incorporating further rock art panels, link to the settlement remains on top of Lordenshaw Hill, and are presumably Romano-British in date,      Post Medieval intake of land bounded by a lengthy earthen dyke, incorporates stones cleared from the fields with rigg and likely removing any earlier monuments.  A large cairn has been created in this intake, and rock art panels have been placed on it.    Quarrying  (likely Post Medieval) of some of the larger rock outcrops has taken place, resulting in sharp edges of rock skirting round into the North Lordenshaw area."

General introduction to Lordenshaw:    The sandstone promontory on which Lordenshaw stands is to the north east of the Simonside --Dove Crags range of hills.  Its north west and south east flanks drop respectively to Whitton Dean, a tributary of the Coquet and to a narrow glaciated valley overlooked to the east by another outlying sandstone hill that rises to the same height as Lordenshaw.  There is a rise to the hillfort from the south west, then the land slopes away to the north east, finger-like, to the Whitton Burn.    This raised, prominent extension of the Simonside Hills reaches 268m.OD, and is made up of outcrop Fell sandstone, with only a thin layer of acidic soil.  There are patches of bright orange soil thrown up by rabbits, and a dark grey soil elsewhere.    The whole area has archaeology of many different periods, one of the most recent and most significant being the clearance of much of the land to the east for ?improvement? for the growing of grain on a regular close-running rig and furrow system.  This must have destroyed some surface archaeology, and may have resulted in some of the stone heaps that could also be prehistoric burial mounds.    Prominent on the hilltop is a ?fort?, a ditched Iron Age enclosure that has been re-used as a Romano-British settlement.  The slope southwards to the modern road and car park has many field walls, some of cobble and soil construction, and others of vertically--set sandstones.  Some of these walls cross one another, and represent different episodes in the use of the land.    The oldest features belong to the late Neolithic period, represented by cup and ring marked rocks over a wide area.  The motifs vary from simple cups to more complex ringed cups and grooves, but there is a characteristic regional phenomenon of long grooves or channels that follow the slope of the outcrop sheets on the east side of the hill.    It is impossible to date outcrop markings, but in this area three possible early bronze age cairns have been built on marked outcrop rock, showing that the latter are either contemporary or earlier, and also showing that the sites were already of great importance in the landscape before the cairns were added.    All the marked rocks in situ are at prominent viewpoints, some commanding many miles of territory.  A few cupped rocks in the hillfort allow the possibility that some marked surfaces may have been destroyed during its construction, and the medieval Deer Park wall may account for others being broken up and reused.  Modern quarrying has certainly taken its toll, especially on the north west, where masses of freestone have been removed, leaving holes in the ground like bomb craters, and the main block of rock art (2c) bears every sign of the quarrying process.  Add to that a network of other walls, including those for sheilings (temporary herds? houses and gardens), and it is likely that we have lost a large proportion of rock art."
1323,10016,"The name 'Lordenshaw' (also Lordinshaw) is not clear in its origin, but may come from heavy  (Old French lourdin) ridge (Old English hou, which occurs as 'hoe', as in Prudhoe or Swinhoe, for example).

This moorland and rough grazing area lies on Lordenshaw Hill?s western flanks, and comprises a series of terraces in the Fell Sandstone Group arc.  Occasional rock outcrops break the bracken- and heather-covered slopes.  At the highest terrace edge the ground falls away southeast and rises more gently to the northeast.  Rock art is found scattered across the slopes and near the terrace edges.  Several springs in these slopes flow to the Whitton Burn and Coquet Valleys, which have incised deep courses through the hills.    Many views can be obtained across the area. The flattened, much modified, top of Lordenshaw Hill is the highest immediate point, whilst further slopes and terraces of the Fell Sandstone Group rise to the Simonside ridge.  The views from all the rock art locations include much of the sandstone group?s arc and the northwest slopes to the Whitton Burn, and more distantly, across Coquetdale, the Cheviot Hills.  Views southeast from some of the rock art are blocked by the slopes and terrace edges, though the highest locations also have distant views this way.  Other rock art areas visible include Football Cairn, Chirnells Moor, West Hills and Westcliffe House. The North and East Lordenshaw rock art areas are only partially visible.    Several monuments that might be Neolithic or Early Bronze Age have been identified. These include cairns located on both of the terrace edges. Two are thought to be burial cairns, likely Bronze Age, being situated at the false crest of the hill a situation typical for these monuments.  One of these is directly associated with the Horseshoe Panel, using the panel almost as a kerbstone.    Other cairns might result from clearance of fields created on the terrace ?levels?.  It is possible, though unproved, that these may date to the first period of Bronze Age agricultural clearance in the area.  A small settlement of round houses and enclosure walls of Iron Age-Romano-British date has been recorded on Birky Hill, where rock art panels have also been recorded.  An encircling ditch  incorporating further rock art panels runs around the top of the Lordenshaw Hill.    A stonewall runs across the area from the second terrace area and down the northwestern slopes.  This also incorporates rock art panels.  The wall is recorded as the boundary of Rothbury Forest, attested in Medieval documents, and joined by a series of sod cast dykes running along and across the lower terrace edge.  These boundaries define areas of rigg and furrow ploughing, with further clearance cairns and, in part, also explain the distribution of the rock art.    Quarrying ( thought to be Medieval or later) has taken place along some of the upper terrace edge, removing much rock and, in places, parts of rock art panels.

East Lordenshaw 3 notes:    The East Lordenshaw 3 panels are associated with associated with the hollow ways, but the markings most probably preceded its construction.  Other marked rocks in this area are mainly sheet outcrops that continue below the eastern line of the hillfort along the valley to the Coquet.  This outcrop ridge, quarried in places, is a dramatic feature of the area, and the exposed rock is grey to white. The exposure of sloping sandstone has led prehistoric people think of making long grooves and channels, together with large cups and cups and rings - characteristics that extend to the sites overlooking the Whitton Burn as it joins the Coquet, and the old golf course to the north.    The ridge provides a continuous viewpoint not only along the valley itself in both directions, but to the Cartington--Skirlaw pike--Longframlington Common ranges.  Some of the view south west is limited by the rising ground to the east which used to have many cairns on top.  The valley has been cleared and cultivated, but it still has an alignment of small standing stones and some cairns that could be either for burial or from agricultural clearance.    The west ridge above these outcrops has burial cairns, one standing on decorated outcrop, and there is a line of stones from the hillfort north east on the downslope of the ridge.  All the marked rocks lie to the east to north east of this spine.  None has been found to the north west, and the West Lordenshaw 1 and 2 panels, already described, mark the limit of rocks with motifs on that side.    It is an exhilarating landscape, full of interest.  Cragside with its planted acres and Victorian house is prominent, with the high heather moorland beyond, where other survivals of prehistory are found, such as the Debdon Whitefield village of round houses, the cairnfield on Longframlington Common, and more rock art and cairns on Cartington."

The ground falls away eastwards, before rising to the west-facing, craggy outcrops and boulder-strewn Garleigh Moor.  Rock art is found across the slopes.     Many views can be obtained across the area over lower ground.   The views north and south extend to the lower ground through the valley to the flanks of the Fell Sandstone Group main arc, mainly grassland and plantations, and the Simonside ridge can be seen southwest.     A Bronze Age round cairn cemetery on the northeastern slope skirts around Lordenshaw Hill, andexcavation has revealed  inhumations, pottery and charcoal. This cemetery extends northwards to the North Lordenshaw rock art area on flatter ground,  the cairns intermingling with outcropping rocks.  The highest cairn incorporates rock art panels in its kerbstones, though other cairns don?t include any other rock art panels.     Agricultural clearance  has taken place on the gentler slopes.  Several small cairns may be Bronze Age in date, relating to the initial clearance of the ground. Several boundaries, incorporating further rock art panels, link to the settlement remains on top of Lordenshaw Hill, and are presumably Romano-British in date,      Post Medieval intake of land bounded by a lengthy earthen dyke, incorporates stones cleared from the fields with rigg and likely removing any earlier monuments.  A large cairn has been created in this intake, and rock art panels have been placed on it.

The walls are in some cases more recent than the cairns, and it is possible that some made use of available piles of stone in their construction.  It is a little-known part of the area, and questions about its use over centuries may only be answered by excavation.  Suffice it to say that if we are looking for a prehistoric presence we have cairns and some low enclosure walls that belong there.  Peter Topping in a recent survey has located two marked stones in this area.  In November, 1997, I recorded cup marks on outcrop that underlies a perched boulder, just south of a cairn with a central standing stone, with a low field wall running to the west.  The linear outcrop runs N-S, and from it can be seen rock 2c to the north west and the hollow way at 66 degrees.  Further north west is another outcrop, a whale-backed mass that has two basins (possibly artificial) and a row of five midget cups.  17m north is a radial cairn.  All these lie on the slope going up to the hillfort, and look across the cairnfield and wall systems.    Towards the fortified enclosure and the dry valley that flanks it to the south east there is a curious landscape in which lines of vertically--placed stones predominate before the valley floor and the rise eastwards give way to rigg and furrow clearance and ploughing.  These lines of stones are particularly clear when they form the flanking low walls of hollow ways that lead up to the fort and Romano-British settlement, and may be associated with the later use of the hillfort area when parts of the rampart and ditch were levelled to enclose a small village of circular huts."

1328,10011,"General Introduction to Lordenshaw:    The sandstone promontory on which Lordenshaw stands is to the north east of the Simonside --Dove Crags range of hills.  Its north west and south east flanks drop respectively to Whitton Dean, a tributary of the Coquet and to a narrow glaciated valley overlooked to the east by another outlying sandstone hill that rises to the same height as Lordenshaw.  There is a rise to the hillfort from the south west, then the land slopes away to the north east, finger-like, to the Whitton Burn.    This raised, prominent extension of the Simonside Hills reaches 268m.OD, and is made up of outcrop Fell sandstone, with only a thin layer of acidic soil.  There are patches of bright orange soil thrown up by rabbits, and a dark grey soil elsewhere.    The whole area has archaeology of many different periods, one of the most recent and most significant being the clearance of much of the land to the east for ?improvement? for the growing of grain on a regular close-running rig and furrow system.  This must have destroyed some surface archaeology, and may have resulted in some of the stone heaps that could also be prehistoric burial mounds.    Prominent on the hilltop is a ?fort?, a ditched Iron Age enclosure that has been re-used as a Romano-British settlement.  The slope southwards to the modern road and car park has many field walls, some of cobble and soil construction, and others of vertically--set sandstones.  Some of these walls cross one another, and represent different episodes in the use of the land.    The oldest features belong to the late Neolithic period, represented by cup and ring marked rocks over a wide area.  The motifs vary from simple cups to more complex ringed cups and grooves, but there is a characteristic regional phenomenon of long grooves or channels that follow the slope of the outcrop sheets on the east side of the hill.    It is impossible to date outcrop markings, but in this area three possible early bronze age cairns have been built on marked outcrop rock, showing that the latter are either contemporary or earlier, and also showing that the sites were already of great importance in the landscape before the cairns were added.    All the marked rocks in situ are at prominent viewpoints, some commanding many miles of territory.  A few cupped rocks in the hillfort allow the possibility that some marked surfaces may have been destroyed during its construction, and the medieval Deer Park wall may account for others being broken up and reused.  Modern quarrying has certainly taken its toll, especially on the north west, where masses of freestone have been removed, leaving holes in the ground like bomb craters, and the main block of rock art (2c) bears every sign of the quarrying process.  Add to that a network of other walls, including those for sheilings (temporary herds? houses and gardens), and it is likely that we have lost a large proportion of rock art.    East Lordenshaw 3 notes:    The East Lordenshaw 3 panels are associated with associated with the hollow ways, but the markings most probably preceded its construction.  Other marked rocks in this area are mainly sheet outcrops that continue below the eastern line of the hillfort along the valley to the Coquet.  This outcrop ridge, quarried in places, is a dramatic feature of the area, and the exposed rock is grey to white. The exposure of sloping sandstone has led prehistoric people think of making long grooves and channels, together with large cups and cups and rings - characteristics that extend to the sites overlooking the Whitton Burn as it joins the Coquet, and the old golf course to the north.    The ridge provides a continuous viewpoint not only along the valley itself in both directions, but to the Cartington--Skirlaw pike--Longframlington Common ranges.  Some of the view south west is limited by the rising ground to the east which used to have many cairns on top.  The valley has been cleared and cultivated, but it still has an alignment of small standing stones and some cairns that could be either for burial or from agricultural clearance.    The west ridge above these outcrops has burial cairns, one standing on decorated outcrop, and there is a line of stones from the hillfort north east on the downslope of the ridge.  All the marked rocks lie to the east to north east of this spine.  None has been found to the north west, and the West Lordenshaw 1 and 2 panels, already described, mark the limit of rocks with motifs on that side.    It is an exhilarating landscape, full of interest.  Cragside with its planted acres and Victorian house is prominent, with the high heather moorland beyond, where other survivals of prehistory are found, such as the Debdon Whitefield village of round houses, the cairnfield on Longframlington Common, and more rock art and cairns on Cartington."

Many views can be obtained across the area over lower ground.   The views north and south extend to the lower ground through the valley to the flanks of the Fell Sandstone Group main arc, mainly grassland and plantations, and the Simonside ridge can be seen southwest.     A Bronze Age round cairn cemetery on the northeastern slope skirts around Lordenshaw Hill, andexcavation has revealed  inhumations, pottery and charcoal.

1328,1,"This naturally undulating surface bears a range, and an arrangement, of motifs. Single cup marks predominate and a large bowl, with turf cover inside, may have been carved or enhanced as a naturally originating feature or as a motif. Other large bowls are also evident across this part of the hillside. The origin of the large bowl is uncertain, but it appears that there may be tooling marks present within it. The surface of the panel is irregular and subject to weathering. Of the motifs themselves there appears a range of sizes of the cup marks and some, though not everywhere, arrangement of the motifs of cup marks in threes. Little enhancement of the grooves and various natural features has been made, though these run throughout the whole length of the panel.    The turf cover is fragile and shallow on the eastern edges of the panel.  The size of the rock can be demonstrated to have increased since the previous work of the Beckensall Archive recordings.

This moorland and rough grazing area lies on Lordenshaw Hill?s western flanks, and comprises a series of terraces in the Fell Sandstone Group arc.  Occasional rock outcrops break the bracken- and heather-covered slopes.  At the highest terrace edge the ground falls away southeast and rises more gently to the northeast.  Rock art is found scattered across the slopes and near the terrace edges.  Several springs in these slopes flow to the Whitton Burn and Coquet Valleys, which have incised deep courses through the hills.    Many views can be obtained across the area. The flattened, much modified, top of Lordenshaw Hill is the highest immediate point, whilst further slopes and terraces of the Fell Sandstone Group rise to the Simonside ridge.  The views from all the rock art locations include much of the sandstone group?s arc and the northwest slopes to the Whitton Burn, and more distantly, across Coquetdale, the Cheviot Hills.  Views southeast from some of the rock art are blocked by the slopes and terrace edges, though the highest locations also have distant views this way.  Other rock art areas visible include Football Cairn, Chirnells Moor, West Hills and Westcliffe House. The North and East Lordenshaw rock art areas are only partially visible.    Several monuments that might be Neolithic or Early Bronze Age have been identified. These include cairns located on both of the terrace edges. Two are thought to be burial cairns, likely Bronze Age, being situated at the false crest of the hill a situation typical for these monuments.  One of these is directly associated with the Horseshoe Panel, using the panel almost as a kerbstone.    Other cairns might result from clearance of fields created on the terrace ?levels?.  It is possible, though unproved, that these may date to the first period of Bronze Age agricultural clearance in the area.  A small settlement of round houses and enclosure walls of Iron Age-Romano-British date has been recorded on Birky Hill, where rock art panels have also been recorded.  An encircling ditch  incorporating further rock art panels runs around the top of the Lordenshaw Hill.    A stonewall runs across the area from the second terrace area and down the northwestern slopes.  This also incorporates rock art panels.  The wall is recorded as the boundary of Rothbury Forest, attested in Medieval documents, and joined by a series of sod cast dykes running along and across the lower terrace edge.  These boundaries define areas of rigg and furrow ploughing, with further clearance cairns and, in part, also explain the distribution of the rock art.    Quarrying ( thought to be Medieval or later) has taken place along some of the upper terrace edge, removing much rock and, in places, parts of rock art panels. This has resulted in extraction hollows northeast of the main panel, sheer and sharp edges of stone, and loose small waste stones.  Tool marks can also be seen in some of the stone remaining."

1333,10011,"General Introduction to Lordenshaw:    The sandstone promontory on which Lordenshaw stands is to the north east of the Simonside --Dove Crags range of hills.  Its north west and south east flanks drop respectively to Whitton Dean, a tributary of the Coquet and to a narrow glaciated valley overlooked to the east by another outlying sandstone hill that rises to the same height as Lordenshaw.  There is a rise to the hillfort from the south west, then the land slopes away to the north east, finger-like, to the Whitton Burn.    This raised, prominent extension of the Simonside Hills reaches 268m.OD, and is made up of outcrop Fell sandstone, with only a thin layer of acidic soil.  There are patches of bright orange soil thrown up by rabbits, and a dark grey soil elsewhere.    The whole area has archaeology of many different periods, one of the most recent and most significant being the clearance of much of the land to the east for ?improvement? for the growing of grain on a regular close-running rig and furrow system.  This must have destroyed some surface archaeology, and may have resulted in some of the stone heaps that could also be prehistoric burial mounds.    Prominent on the hilltop is a ?fort?, a ditched Iron Age enclosure that has been re-used as a Romano-British settlement.  The slope southwards to the modern road and car park has many field walls, some of cobble and soil construction, and others of vertically--set sandstones.  Some of these walls cross one another, and represent different episodes in the use of the land.    The oldest features belong to the late Neolithic period, represented by cup and ring marked rocks over a wide area.  The motifs vary from simple cups to more complex ringed cups and grooves, but there is a characteristic regional phenomenon of long grooves or channels that follow the slope of the outcrop sheets on the east side of the hill.    It is impossible to date outcrop markings, but in this area three possible early bronze age cairns have been built on marked outcrop rock, showing that the latter are either contemporary or earlier, and also showing that the sites were already of great importance in the landscape before the cairns were added.    All the marked rocks in situ are at prominent viewpoints, some commanding many miles of territory.  A few cupped rocks in the hillfort allow the possibility that some marked surfaces may have been destroyed during its construction, and the medieval Deer Park wall may account for others being broken up and reused.  Modern quarrying has certainly taken its toll, especially on the north west, where masses of freestone have been removed, leaving holes in the ground like bomb craters, and the main block of rock art (2c) bears every sign of the quarrying process.  Add to that a network of other walls, including those for sheilings (temporary herds? houses and gardens), and it is likely that we have lost a large proportion of rock art.    East Lordenshaw 3 notes:    The East Lordenshaw 3 panels are associated with associated with the hollow ways, but the markings most probably preceded its construction.  Other marked rocks in this area are mainly sheet outcrops that continue below the eastern line of the hillfort along the valley to the Coquet.  This outcrop ridge, quarried in places, is a dramatic feature of the area, and the exposed rock is grey to white. The exposure of sloping sandstone has led prehistoric people think of making long grooves and channels, together with large cups and cups and rings - characteristics that extend to the sites overlooking the Whitton Burn as it joins the Coquet, and the old golf course to the north.    The ridge provides a continuous viewpoint not only along the valley itself in both directions, but to the Cartington--Skirlaw pike--Longframlington Common ranges.  Some of the view south west is limited by the rising ground to the east which used to have many cairns on top.  The valley has been cleared and cultivated, but it still has an alignment of small standing stones and some cairns that could be either for burial or from agricultural clearance.    The west ridge above these outcrops has burial cairns, one standing on decorated outcrop, and there is a line of stones from the hillfort north east on the downslope of the ridge.  All the marked rocks lie to the east to north east of this spine.  None has been found to the north west, and the West Lordenshaw 1 and 2 panels, already described, mark the limit of rocks with motifs on that side.    It is an exhilarating landscape, full of interest.  Cragside with its planted acres and Victorian house is prominent, with the high heather moorland beyond, where other survivals of prehistory are found, such as the Debdon Whitefield village of round houses, the cairnfield on Longframlington Common, and more rock art and cairns on Cartington."

1334,2,"This moorland and rough grazing area lies on Lordenshaw Hill?s western flanks, and comprises a series of terraces in the Fell Sandstone Group arc.  Occasional rock outcrops break the bracken- and heather-covered slopes.  At the highest terrace edge the ground falls away southeast and rises more gently to the northeast.  Rock art is found scattered across the slopes and near the terrace edges.  Several springs in these slopes flow to the Whitton Burn and Coquet Valleys, which have incised deep courses through the hills.    Many views can be obtained across the area. The flattened, much modified, top of Lordenshaw Hill is the highest immediate point, whilst further slopes and terraces of the Fell Sandstone Group rise to the Simonside ridge.  The views from all the rock art locations include much of the sandstone group?s arc and the northwest slopes to the Whitton Burn, and more distantly, across Coquetdale, the Cheviot Hills.  Views southeast from some of the rock art are blocked by the slopes and terrace edges, though the highest locations also have distant views this way.  Other rock art areas visible include Football Cairn, Chirnells Moor, West Hills and Westcliffe House. The North and East Lordenshaw rock art areas are only partially visible.    Several monuments that might be Neolithic or Early Bronze Age have been identified. These include cairns located on both of the terrace edges. Two are thought to be burial cairns, likely Bronze Age, being situated at the false crest of the hill a situation typical for these monuments.  One of these is directly associated with the Horseshoe Panel, using the panel almost as a kerbstone.    Other cairns might result from clearance of fields created on the terrace ?levels?.  It is possible, though unproved, that these may date to the first period of Bronze Age agricultural clearance in the area.  A small settlement of round houses and enclosure walls of Iron Age-Romano-British date has been recorded on Birky Hill, where rock art panels have also been recorded.  An encircling ditch  incorporating further rock art panels runs around the top of the Lordenshaw Hill.    A stonewall runs across the area from the second terrace area and down the northwestern slopes.  This also incorporates rock art panels.  The wall is recorded as the boundary of Rothbury Forest, attested in Medieval documents, and joined by a series of sod cast dykes running along and across the lower terrace edge.  These boundaries define areas of rigg and furrow ploughing, with further clearance cairns and, in part, also explain the distribution of the rock art.    Quarrying ( thought to be Medieval or later) has taken place along some of the upper terrace edge, removing much rock and, in places, parts of rock art panels. This has resulted in extraction hollows northeast of the main panel, sheer and sharp edges of stone, and loose small waste stones.  Tool marks can also be seen in some of the stone remaining."

Add to that a network of other walls, including those for sheilings (temporary herds? houses and gardens), and it is likely that we have lost a large proportion of rock art.    South Lordenshaw 1-3 notes:    The area to the south of the hillfort, between it and the car park, is interesting.  There are obvious field walls and a number of cairns made of large blocks and cobbles.  One or two of these cairns appear to be of the 'radial' type, with three 'walls' coming from the centre.  This type of cairn, on a larger scale, was excavated at Turf Knowe in the Ingram valley and contained cremations and food vessels. The walls are in some cases more recent than the cairns, and it is possible that some made use of available piles of stone in their construction.  It is a little-known part of the area, and questions about its use over centuries may only be answered by excavation.  Suffice it to say that if we are looking for a prehistoric presence we have cairns and some low enclosure walls that belong there.  Peter Topping in a recent survey has located two marked stones in this area.  In November, 1997, I recorded cup marks on outcrop that underlies a perched boulder, just south of a cairn with a central standing stone, with a low field wall running to the west.  The linear outcrop runs N-S, and from it can be seen rock 2c to the north west and the hollow way at 66 degrees.  Further north west is another outcrop, a whale-backed mass that has two basins (possibly artificial) and a row of five midget cups.  17m north is a radial cairn.  All these lie on the slope going up to the hillfort, and look across the cairnfield and wall systems.    Towards the fortified enclosure and the dry valley that flanks it to the south east there is a curious landscape in which lines of vertically--placed stones predominate before the valley floor and the rise eastwards give way to rigg and furrow clearance and ploughing.  These lines of stones are particularly clear when they form the flanking low walls of hollow ways that lead up to the fort and Romano-British settlement, and may be associated with the later use of the hillfort area when parts of the rampart and ditch were levelled to enclose a small village of circular huts."

1345,10011,"General Introduction to Lordenshaw:    The sandstone promontory on which Lordenshaw stands is to the north east of the Simonside --Dove Crags range of hills.  Its north west and south east flanks drop respectively to Whitton Dean, a tributary of the Coquet and to a narrow glaciated valley overlooked to the east by another outlying sandstone hill that rises to the same height as Lordenshaw.  There is a rise to the hillfort from the south west, then the land slopes away to the north east, finger-like, to the Whitton Burn.    This raised, prominent extension of the Simonside Hills reaches 268m.OD, and is made up of outcrop Fell sandstone, with only a thin layer of acidic soil.  There are patches of bright orange soil thrown up by rabbits, and a dark grey soil elsewhere.    The whole area has archaeology of many different periods, one of the most recent and most significant being the clearance of much of the land to the east for ?improvement? for the growing of grain on a regular close-running rig and furrow system.  This must have destroyed some surface archaeology, and may have resulted in some of the stone heaps that could also be prehistoric burial mounds.    Prominent on the hilltop is a ?fort?, a ditched Iron Age enclosure that has been re-used as a Romano-British settlement.  The slope southwards to the modern road and car park has many field walls, some of cobble and soil construction, and others of vertically--set sandstones.  Some of these walls cross one another, and represent different episodes in the use of the land.    The oldest features belong to the late Neolithic period, represented by cup and ring marked rocks over a wide area.  The motifs vary from simple cups to more complex ringed cups and grooves, but there is a characteristic regional phenomenon of long grooves or channels that follow the slope of the outcrop sheets on the east side of the hill.    It is impossible to date outcrop markings, but in this area three possible early bronze age cairns have been built on marked outcrop rock, showing that the latter are either contemporary or earlier, and also showing that the sites were already of great importance in the landscape before the cairns were added.    All the marked rocks in situ are at prominent viewpoints, some commanding many miles of territory.  A few cupped rocks in the hillfort allow the possibility that some marked surfaces may have been destroyed during its construction, and the medieval Deer Park wall may account for others being broken up and reused.  Modern quarrying has certainly taken its toll, especially on the north west, where masses of freestone have been removed, leaving holes in the ground like bomb craters, and the main block of rock art (2c) bears every sign of the quarrying process.  Add to that a network of other walls, including those for sheilings (temporary herds? houses and gardens), and it is likely that we have lost a large proportion of rock art.    East Lordenshaw 3 notes:     The East Lordenshaw 3 panels are associated with associated with the hollow ways, but the markings most probably preceded its construction.  Other marked rocks in this area are mainly sheet outcrops that continue below the eastern line of the hillfort along the valley to the Coquet.  This outcrop ridge, quarried in places, is a dramatic feature of the area, and the exposed rock is grey to white. The exposure of sloping sandstone has led prehistoric people think of making long grooves and channels, together with large cups and cups and rings - characteristics that extend to the sites overlooking the Whitton Burn as it joins the Coquet, and the old golf course to the north.    The ridge provides a continuous viewpoint not only along the valley itself in both directions, but to the Cartington--Skirlaw pike--Longframlington Common ranges.  Some of the view south west is limited by the rising ground to the east which used to have many cairns on top.  The valley has been cleared and cultivated, but it still has an alignment of small standing stones and some cairns that could be either for burial or from agricultural clearance.    The west ridge above these outcrops has burial cairns, one standing on decorated outcrop, and there is a line of stones from the hillfort north east on the downslope of the ridge.  All the marked rocks lie to the east to north east of this spine.  None has been found to the north west, and the West Lordenshaw 1 and 2 panels, already described, mark the limit of rocks with motifs on that side.    It is an exhilarating landscape, full of interest.  Cragside with its planted acres and Victorian house is prominent, with the high heather moorland beyond, where other survivals of prehistory are found, such as the Debdon Whitefield village of round houses, the cairnfield on Longframlington Common, and more rock art and cairns on Cartington."

1346,10011,"led Law is the continuation of the Dod Law scarp SW, with a similar view across the Till valley to the west, and sight of the river as it breaks through the scarp from the east to Weetwood Bridge.  It is divided from the Buttony sites to the east by a small stream and valley.    Although motifs on it have disappeared, George Tate (1865) has left an account and drawings of them.  He says, ""On the scalp of the rock where it dips into the hill, four figures are traceable; but from being very much defaced, it is difficult to make out these forms, even when viewed under a favourable light"". The figures that he draws are a cup and ring, a cup, ring, a second interrupted ring from which curved grooves extend, a cup and three concentric rings, and a cup and two concentric rings.  On the perpendicular western face he found and drew some other designs which are not of the same type; he thought them more likely to be medieval. The importance of this place therefore continued, and from it the Milfield Plain and Cheviots are viewed.    The landscape has changed since then, in that some monuments have been cleared away.  The most recent disturbance is the laying of a gas pipeline.  The ritual significance of the area is suggested by reports of burials.    At NU 00570 30620 (Mill Lands), W Procter reported that "" In 1867 a cist was uncovered by the plough in a field near this (Gled Law) quite close to 'Cuddy's Cove'.  Greenwell wrote, ""The cist was found on June 21, 1867, in a sandy knoll rising from the River Till and in close proximity to one of the rocks engraved with the circular markings"".  This has gone.    Davison and Davison (1935-6) said that ""evidence still exists to show that Gled Law was used for burial purposes.  It would be interesting to excavate at least two of the large mounds on the hill, either of which may be a barrow.""    It is likely that more archaeology has been destroyed or covered over.  For example, Mr Davison also recorded ""One cup with a faintly discernible ring"" where it is now pasture.    Mr. Tate reported that by 1868 ""seven groups of inscriptions have recently been discovered.  In this assemblage of sculptures, there are traceable thirty-six figures, mostly typical forms; yet in some cases, so varied and combined, as to present new figures.""  Plate V shows them, drawn from rubbings made by Mr. William Procter, Jnr.  Mr. Bruce also drew some of them.    The figures on Gled Law Site 2a in my illustration, with its three radial grooves, was discovered by Mrs. Procter.  Mr. Tate says, "" The whole of these sculptures were rudely formed, the incisions are shallow, and the tool marks distinct; the circles are irregular and had evidently been drawn without instrumental aid.""  He also noted that, ""About fifty yards from these sculptures, Mr. Procter has recently discovered the fragments of a sepulchral urn of the ordinary ancient British type.""  His observations on how the motifs were made suggests that the rocks had been covered over for some time, leaving the motifs more or less in their pristine state.  What Mr. Tate considered ""rudely formed"" means that no attempt had been made to deepen or smooth the cups and grooves; they were left with the pick marks clear."

Though the cross-sections along the length and across the width will vary the motif is quite deep. It is thought that this is a manmade motif based upon the depth and the absence of any other depressions formed by geological losses or metrological conditions across the whole visible surface. The motif gives credence to Fontburn a(iv)'s motif.     The motif appears as the only large depression across the whole visible surface of the rock and tucked in one corner. There only appears one other depression upon the whole surface, this is markedly less deep and little bigger than fingertip size. By virtue of the main sloping face the motif at the top is displayed to advantage downslope.    The panel is on a valley side - slightly elevated above the low ground top the side of the Fallowlees Burn - but views are limited along the valley by the slopes, and no distant views are obtained along and outside of the valley.

The panel is of a portable size and with others (Fontburn a(vi) and Fontburn a(viii)) is part of a cairn as recorded by previously.  The stone is earthfast and appears to have been free of any covering materials. Indeed the shelving nature of the panel might have stopped any material from resting upon it.

There at least 50 cups on the top surface, which is gently sloping and contains all of the motifs - those previously ascribed to vertical surfaces may be natural or quarried marks. Few natural depressions were observed but most of the defined cup-shapes are artificially marked. In total, cup marks divided into: 33 definite, 17 probable, 2 definite cups with rings, 2 probable cups with rings, and one definite cup and groove. Detailed counts, made on two separate occasions and produced the totals presented. Consideration was given to the idea of clustering of cups into 'paw marks' and speculatively four such occurrences were suggested.      The panel is situated above a small feeder burn on the lip of a steep decline into what is now Fontburn Reservoir - intervisibility is limited by rising ground to the south but good elsewhere. Markings are, in general, quite shallow and only visible from close to. It is suspected that the present ground level is considerably lower than in the distant past, exposing more of the sides. Now situated beneath a conifer overhang it is subject to cover by needle debris and the sides to stock rubbing. A popular footpath passes closely by but there is no direction or interpretation on site."

1362,1,A large boulder with one well defined cup in the north-east corner. This could be naturally formed as are more shallow depressions and grooves formed by weathering. The large cup is deep and well-defined 0.09 m by 0.08 m with layer of quartz grains in bottom of cup and evidence of overflow (sandy flow time with quartz grains). The block is situated on top of others and may represented a denuded cairn or pile of stones sited in a hollow - a confluence of streams and valleys.     Intervisibility is restricted west and south by immediately rising ground but views north and east down the valley are good.
1363,2,"Associated with other clearance or burial cairns 50m and with confirmed rock art as Fontburn New 1, some 150m, and [panel] Fontburn b at 400m.  A large steep stell of recent manufacture has used many stones from surrounding cairns."

Two cups, one large deep cup near leading edge and another smaller shallow cup, with a possible duct or channel, adjacent (0.05 m). They occupy the central visible surface. Both clearly marked on the panel. The stone may be the remnants of a larger panel.

The panel has irregular, possibly shaped edges, and shallow depth with the pecked motif the only noticeable feature.  Found during the Rock Shelter excavation and relationship to that early site established by John Davies.     Immediate views from the shelter are open to the south but restricted elsewhere by higher ground."
1365,10006,"It is a large block of sandstone, pointed at one end, where there are eight large cups, generally paired. At the centre of the rock is a large cup with two irregular grooves around it. Above is a large cup at the centre of what appear to be two concentric grooves not quite matching. Others motif include a very large cup with two arcs and three cups around it, one with a groove running to the edge of the slab. There are two more large cups and some pick marks."
1365,10008,Between the path and the ploughed field.
1365,10011,"Throckley is part of Tyne and Wear, but it is appropriate to report this discovery here.     When I (Stan Beckensall)  first recorded the stone it was lying just inside a wood to which the public has access. I was told that it came from a field to the south of the Roman vallum. Since then it has been turned face-downwards to protect it from damage."

1367,1,"A small earthfast boulder used, with many larger boulders, some shaped,  in a field wall. 'Decorated' with a motif of four concentric arcs, with no central cup. Arcs cover approximately 60 degrees of a circle only and are not continuous. First impression indicates manual working but this is not certain. What appears as a series of arcs is considered naturally formed by the rock strata and weathering influences upon it. There is no convincing evidence of artificial enhancement of features on this panel. The linear arrangement of stones is interesting and evidently residue from an ancient field or boundary wall, part of an Iron Age or later settlement in the locality.      Intervisibility is good."
1368,3,Sandstone
1368,1,A small portable cobble displaying three similarly shaped cups and an elongated cup - no peck marks visible. The long cup may be two others joined together intentionally or by later erosion. Now located in a farm track way near to a field gate - it may have relocated there as infill. Similar size stones are plentiful nearby but none is hollowed as this one.  The regularity of shape and grouping arrangement promotes this as an artificially marked stone.      Intervisibility is good in all directions but south which is blocked by rising ground.

1369,10006,The stone has six clear cups and a fainter one. The bottom four cups appear to be paired.
1369,10011,Forestry Commission ploughing prior to planting revealed a large triangular-shaped sandstone rock close to the site of an excavation by George Jobey of three joined cairns.
1369,10021,"This panel might not be on display, in which case prior arrangements will have to be made with the museum to view it."
1369,2,"These summary notes are based on the work of George Jobey in the 1970s (1981).  Prior to the afforestation the area of Millstone Hill was covered by a cairnfield consisting of at least 85 small rounded cairns, roughly centred at NU 088 261.  A triplet of conjoined kerbed cairns was excavated revealing cremations, some pottery and charcoal.  The excavator (George Jobey) collected samples for radiocarbon dating - but this was not carried out, and wrote that the monument was of a common North British type, though dates and affinities of this type were somewhat varied.  Two further cairns - thought of as clearance cairns - were also excavated, one covering a charcoal layer radiocarbon date calibrated to 2202-1975 BC.  Jobey noted the construction of the cairns need not have immediately followed the burning clearance suggested by the charcoal, but noted other possible earlier burning clearance in the area.  Prior to the planting of the trees further rock art panels (recorded in this project as Millstone Hill and Millstone Hill New 1, Rock Art Ids 1026 and 1031 respectively) were found in a furrow not far from Jobey's excavations (see the references for that panel).  The area is named after a millstone quarry noted in a later regional review by Jobey (1986: site number 7)."
1369,3,Sandstone
1369,7,Sandstone
1369,5,Peck marks are present across the whole of the surface and clear of the cup marks.  These are randomly placed across the whole rock.  They are large and fine.
1369,1,"This is a rounded triangular piece of rock. It is a quite exceptional panel of rock art of importance for many reasons. This appears to have been shaped, possibly quarried with a scalloped edge, possibly to be part of a greater piece. The stone only bears cup marks on one face, but these are of some interest. Each cup mark has been pecked out, with many pecking marks of differing sizes. The peck marks in the cup marks predominate on one side of at least four of the cup marks. There are six definite cup marks - two of which are little more than peck marked, and a 'loose' arrangement roughly clustered in one corner. Typically the cup marks are 0.06 m diameter to 0.07 m diameter, with depths from under 0.01 m to 0.02 m deep. One cup mark is a half-circle with the beginnings of a conjoined second. It is like a figure eight of 0.095 m length by 0.04 m width maximum, to a waist of 0.03 m width.  This an unfinished motif.    The stone possesses generally flat, sharpish sides and is comparable to cist covers, from which it could have derived, or been used alone to cover a small cist.    It is an exceptionally smooth and flat piece of stone free from any natural depressions, cracks or indeed marked bedding.  The group of four cup marks is rather loose; and not as strictly defined as elsewhere.  Attention is drawn to similar markings elsewhere within NADRAP.      The panel was found in the ploughing for the Millstone Hill/Ros Castle woods."
1369,10,Edges may be burred in movement
1370,1,"It is reportedly situated between the Ox-Eye long mound and the Ox-Eye stone, but may have been hidden by deep heather (Spring 2006) or bracken (Summer 2006).    This area was searched a number of times, and previous records note that both Ox-Eye rock art panels (also Ox-Eye 2, Rock Art ID 1038) are usually buried in deep heather. This panel was not located during NADRAP recording."
1370,2,"There are three reported rock art panels in this area; none were found, despite intensive searching.  In all cases previous references note the motifs to be cup marks.     Opinion is divided as to whether or not the Ox-Eye long mound is natural or is a long cairn/ barrow.  Prior to the recent forestry a small cairnfield, unenclosed hut circle and later enclosure dyke were recorded in this area."
1370,7,
1371,2,"A number of rock art panels have been recorded relatively nearby along the length of the Fallowlees Burn.  A number of other prehistoric monuments have also been recorded here, though detailed within the notes on those panels."
1371,7,
1371,1,"The panel was first recorded in the 1950s by an Ordnance Survey Field Investigator, though it was never depicted on the maps of the area.  However, further investigation, whilst locating the stone, was more circumspect in claiming the ?motifs? as rock art and the stone as a panel.  The development of Harwood Forest has obscured the recorded site of the panel, and also much of the surrounding area, which remains to this day.  It was not possible, therefore, to locate the stone and identify anything of the claimed motif.    The initial record is of seven small cups in a horseshoe pattern, though was later considered as doubtful in a later recording.  It is impossible to be sure of the motifs and numbers recorded.    Fieldwork carried out during NADARAP searched along the public footpaths present in the area, and the fringes of the plantations. Such work noted many stones in the area of the grid reference indicated by the HER entry, and, though examined, none were found to bear any rock art.  Further the afforestation of the area is thought to have brought many such unmarked stones to the surface, but not of any disturbed construction of antiquity in the area."
1372,2,"Without a specific location or any recording notes it is impossible to say if there were any associated monuments or other finds with the panel.  There are similarly, but unconnected with this panel, other Neolithic and Bronze Age finds that have been recorded as from near Rothbury and Coquetdale generally."
1372,7,
1372,1,"Unfortunately the context of this panel is unknown apart from the phrase ?From near Rothbury?, eventually working into the Greenwell Collections of The British Museum.  It is possible that the panel may have come from Greenwell?s own excavations in the North Lordenshaw area, then called Burgh Hill, recorded in his own British Barrows of 1877.  However, there are many other excavated cairns, not all excavated by Greenwell, in the area and Greenwell?s collections from which the panel may derive.  The excavated locations include further rock art panels as outcrop and, occasionally, incorporated - though again unclear if recognised for any importance - rock art panels, which might all be classed as near Rothbury, for the previous Rothbury parish is noted as much larger than it now is.    Single cup marks    This panel, unfortunately unaccessible to NADRAP in holdings of The British Museum, has been recorded as similar to the panel known as Whitton Burn 1a (ERA 1209).  This panel has single cup marks, of a variety of sizes, but it is unknown how many motifs are present ? if indeed the rock art motifs are confirmed as genuine."
1373,3,Sandstone
1373,1,"The upper surface of this boulder is randomly but comprehensively covered with cups including two which are very large and deep bowl-shaped ovals in comparison to others. One cup has a definite ring and many show clear evidence of formation in numerous peck marks to the interior surface. Some possible linear relationship to cups, line of three, a line of four. One edge to panel is very straight as if quarried."

This large slab is comprehensively decorated over the originally down facing surface and has random cup marks on the other side.  The main surface is covered in cups and rings in apparent random design. Unusual zigzag marking, or chevrons appear at one corner. Almost all of the marking are shallow, barely pecked into the relatively soft surface sufficient only to impart the design.  Peck marking across the whole surface infers the panel was 'flattened' in preparation for the motif.  There are plough strike marks, long and straight, to both side of the panel, unusual for a cist cover in situ.      The find site has good intervisibility along the river valley but is limited to the north by rising ground."

1375,1,This apparently shaped boulder is comprehensively marked with at least ten randomly arranged deep cups on the underside. Some appear to be linked by shallow grooves. There are plough marks on one of the cup-marked surfaces.    Cups of varying size 0.03 - 0.08 m. Some are deep - 0.04 m.
1375,10,Damage in future moving of the stone
1376,1,"This is one of two marked rocks discovered during an excavation of a cist close to Fulforth Farm in 1996. The excavation followed the unearthing of the Fulforth Farm cist cover the previous year.  Other finds included a cremation, flints and a polished stone axe.    It is now held by Durham University and was not recorded during the course of the project."
1377,2,"There are no immediately associated sites or finds made near this panel.  However, the surroundings look to have been generally improved or planted with a series of evergreen plantations, and the construction of the adjacent dam may have removed or destroyed any further, if present, rock art panels and prehistoric monuments.  The area does not look like that it is generally ploughed, and so un-conducive to fieldwalking.    A possible long cairn has been identified near the northern end of the reservoir, if so this is likely of Neolithic date.  Also in the surrounding area a possible burnt mound has been recorded.  This too might be thought contemporary with the putative rock art recorded."
1377,7,
1377,1,"This panel was found in recent survey work in the Weardale area.  It is said to be a sandstone rock with a number of natural basins, which are thought to have been enhanced and the rock described as a possible rock art panel.    This panel was not visited during NADRAP surveys."
1378,2,"This panel was found in the excavation of a later prehistoric settlement.  The first phases of the settlement were of an unenclosed settlement of roundhouses, suggested to be of Late Bronze Age in date, and the panel was found in connection with these phases.  This site later developed into an Iron Age enclosed settlement, with further roundhouses surrounded by a roughly rectangular ditch."
1378,7,
1378,1,"This panel was found in the 1960s excavations by G Jobey of a prehistoric settlement.  It was recorded as a rock art panel with a single cup mark.

1398,1,"This panel was not located during NADRAP fieldwork. It is thought to be a cup marked panel only, though the number of motifs is unknown. The site is located to the northwest of the Woolly Hills farm on the northern side of the Hindon Beck, which feeds into the Rivers Gaunless and Wear.   It proved impossible to establish access or indeed a more specific grid reference to record this panel.  No other monuments have been recorded in this area."
1399,3,Sandstone
1399,1,"At the time of the project when this panel was recorded, most of the panel and certainly most of the ground was covered in lying snow.  The notes are therefore the ones compiled at that visit and it may be that further work with the ground clear and the conditions more conducive to recording, that different details might be recorded.  The panel appears by the side of a gateway through fieldwall, and it is uncertain if the panel might have been moved here for field clearance or walling work.  It lies flush with the ground which suggests some antiquity in it's positioning - though this may still relate to the construction of the wall.  There is little other stone visible in the field.  The stone is situated behind the fieldwall, but a little further than the immediate shelter and tumble of other wall stones.      There are views to all the Langleydale Common sites which lie on the south side of the stream, on higher ground to the south.  The general areas of the rock art panels can be made out - however, the individual panels cannot be made out.      The panel is a roughly triangular shape with the cup mark found off-centre.  About a third of the panel is turf-covered.  It is about some 300m to the next nearest 'rock art panel'.  One single cup mark, apparently slightly off centre placed in the rock exposed and clear of snow when recording work took place.  The cup mark is rough edges and not smooth.

1555,1,A small portable boulder re-used in the construction of a now dilapidated  dry stone wall of some antiquity.  A centrally placed large deep cup (0.08 m diameter) is cut into a sloping surface and five smaller cups (0.02 - 0.03 m diameter) are arranged around it in an arc - similar to a 'cats-paw' imprint.  Stone has some side damage presumable when incorporated into the wall or later.  This formation can also be seen at other sites eg Fontburn b.

1565,10011,"The cairn has been known for many years, and is assumed to be a Neolithic long barrow ? a rare occurrence in Northumberland.  The cairn is 50m long and 2m high. It has an early Bronze Age burial cist in it. Another cist was excavated by George Jobey 200m east of the long cairn, and other possible round barrows were noted in the area. The mound is now in thick forest, which makes exploration difficult, but when I visited it with Paul Frodsham I was able to record some cup marked stones. Others were recorded in the area by Bill Ford and Philip Deakin?s class from the Centre for Lifelong Learning at Newcastle University, private research, and the Borders Archaeological Society.     	Four cups on a block of sandstone nearbc.	15 cups, one with a faint penannular, on an almost vertical outcrop at the eastern approach to the mound. There is often a problem of deciding what is a naturally formed cup and what is artificial, especially when there are no pick markings visible, either because erosion has smoothed them, or because the cups were smoothed artificially. It is possible, of course, that stone with natural cup marks may be used as the ?real thing.? Fortunately, doubts only arise in a few cases. This possibility is taken into account in the drawing."

Other than the other rock art panels on this slope, there are no other certain monuments contemporary with the main panel.  There is a round earth mound, south of the main panel, with neither edge nor kerb.  It is probably a Bronze Age funerary monument; though hasn?t been investigated to reveal anything of a structure or grave goods.  No finds or monuments have been recorded in the area of the crag, though a survey of the nearby Wallington Estate identified possible Bronze Age settlement remains.    The only site evidence of human activity apart from the mound is in extensive quarrying of the crag, especially around the lower portions where steep and sharp rock faces are exposed.  An extensive Post Medieval stonewall, the boundary of the Wallington Estate, was the likely the cause of the quarrying.      Although there was ploughing for the adjacent plantation, no artefacts were collected or recorded at this time."

This is very smooth, though peck marks are to be seen at the bottom. The sides of the motif are very smooth with no peck marks here. It seems to have been much more of a finished smoothness compared to others of the series at Wallington Newhouses.

The first contains seven definite cups and has two surrounding grooves. Second has two cups and a single groove which is broken by quarring edge, and has also a groove leading away. Position and removal of quarried stone indicates that other motif may probably have disappeared with quarrying activity.

The cup and ring is more eroded on the eastlery side; it is surrounded by a penannular groove (which is wide) enclosing another single cup, linking an adjacent cup and penannular. To the west are three single cup marks which makes a line. South of the groove is a linear arrangement of four cups - one alone and three singles. The groove does not appear to link with the largest cup marks. The three largest shallow cups thought to have been eroded by water pooling. The separated cup marks are smaller and closer to the outcrop edge.     There is a noticeable difference in rock composition across the panel due to a series of fine and coarse grain beds.

1613,5,"Possible quarrying mark from this stone, in the southern edge"
1613,1,"This is a moderately sized piece of outcropping rock from a locally prominent outcrop/knoll area. It is a roughly triangular with one single cup mark upon one end, just above a break of slope in the surface. It is well-defined and deep, on the northern, upper, sloping edge and measures 0.04 m diameter with no peck marks visible. There are few natural marks of distinction, except one crack, and in places the rock is very even - but has not been inscribed with further motifs. The removal of portions of the rock is apparent.    The panel is located on the north-eastern edge of the knoll area, nearest the watercourse. Other rock art has been found on the flanks of the knoll.  Much of the view from this panel is obscured by the knoll top - where the West Shaftoe N01 is situated and a similar knoll about 200 m to the north, as well as the much larger Shaftoe Crags area.    Though the rig has encircled much of the knoll - possibly creating clearance material to be added - there does not seem anything of antiquity before the field boundary in this area."

1614,1,"Located on a rocky outcrop amid rig and furrowed fields this rock art panel has at least 13 cups, shallow grooves, a cup with penannular and groove. It is possible to visually align the cups into an arrangement of arcs but this is uncertain.  Cups are of regular size and almost all show clear evidence of peck marking. A serpentine line of peck marks outlines the northern edge of the cup arrangement. The boulder is slightly domed and has unutilised space without markings.      Linear strike marks are probably to do with quarrying which is evident elsewhere on site, than with plough action.."

It is well-rounded and very deep, measuring 0.02 m deep and 0.08 m in diameter. It has been carved into a surface now vertical but it is unknown if the motif was carved with the stone as it now is. The cup mark is carved into a high/prominent part of the rock - almost boss-like, before the lower surfaces of the rock. Other boss-like cup marks are known and have been commented on elsewhere. The weathering marks at the top suggest it has been in upright for a long time.      Another triangular stone has been set upright nearby also on the edge of the ridge, this stone has no motif or weathering evident.

Nearby - 120 m is a long quarried outcrop of close grained sandstone. Deep pits indicate original outcrop levels may have been 2 - 2.5 m higher than present in some areas.

1623,1,"A rounded boulder showing no quarry marks but with well defined bedding planes over the entire surface. Many depressions were observed and those filled in the sketch were considered to be artificial without reservation. No tool marks, pecking or other motif adornment were found.     The boulder has been incorporated, knowingly or otherwise into an irregular field enclosure wall, now 3m wide and c. 0.3 - 1.0m high. In places the course is uneven and a corner markedly rounded. A possible original entrance, or break in the wall is located immediately north of the panel. Extending some 200m the wall is reminiscent of Romano British construction seen elsewhere.      It is unknown if the rock art panel is in its original location - the suspicion is that it is not - but it may have been recognised in the Iron Age-Romano-British past.  At least three large single cup marks were identified on this panel.  These are well rounded and deep depressions near the top of the panel.  There are at least four slighter depressions elsewhere across the rock surface - which it might be thought further cup marks.  The cup marks are typically 0.05m to 0.09m in diameter in size, and about 0.03m deep.  The other possible motifs are slightly less rounded and about 0.05m diameter.

It was removed from find location near an existing tumulus in fields south east of the tower. The previous horizontal is now a vertical face. The motifs dominate the boulder and are well-marked with cup and multiple rings / grooves which fill the available space and were possibly shaped to fit the boulder or boulder shaped from outcrop. The carvings include a cup and groove with two penannulars which are angular to match the boulder edge, carved on, but not through a thin layer of quartz-like material covering the base sandstone. Boulder has been bashed and clipped, probably in removal from the field find site. It is not know if there is a motif on the reverse. Sharp edged chipping and the removal of some thin layer of hardened surface may have occurred in recent times.  Reddish discolouration may indicate past burning or result from concentration of iron based deposits."

1702,2,"This panel is situated in a slight dip, approx 5 m north of the wall and 90 m east of the gate, the carving Loups's Hill 1 is 275 m on higher ground south east, the source of a spring sits 80 m directly east along the walling and Goldsborough Crags can be seen to the west.     With other carvings in the area at West Loups?s, Goldsborough and East Loups?s, it isn?t hard to imagine these sites being linked in prehistory.  The existence of quarrying, lime kilns, ridge and furrow also show human occupation throughout the ages."

1703,4,2 x cup and ring with groove coming out of ring
1703,1,"This carving is placed on the north eastern side of exposed outcrop, 20 m north of Toby Well.     The motifs are on an area sloping north to south, towards a ridge on the stone .  The ridge is fairly distinctive and may have formed part of the intended design. Motifs consist of three or four cups enclosed by a curving groove, three cups with rings, two of which have linear grooves leading towards the ridge and two further single cups.  All of the features are heavily eroded and only visible in strong oblique light.    On the adjoining piece of outcrop directly east, are two further depressions on the south-west end, the most south-easterly could be a cup as it?s the same shape, size and depths as the others on the main stone. However, the other cup has vertical sides, is smaller and looks similar to a bullet hole.    Directly 8 m west of the carved area, the exposed bedrock has several  weather worn natural depressions and an impact from a projectile, no features on the west end look to be carved.     Quarrying may have also taken place.    Reference 8 in the West Loups section of the 1998 publication, ?Prehistoric Rock Art of County Durham, Swaledale and Wensleydale?."
1703,2,"This carved area of outcrop can be found north of Toby Well, 10 m north of walling placed on outcrop overlooking Toby Well, and 26 m south of the main field wall. The pathway down to Toby Well is 3 m directly to the south.    Further examples of rock art can be found 250 to 350 m south around the ruins of West Loups?s settlement, 700 m south around Kearton Rigg and 1300 m west around Goldsborough Rigg. A circular banked feature of uncertain date also surrounds the settlement at West Loups?s and drainage channels can also be seen in fields on lower ground to the south.     The spread of rock art, field system would suggest extensive habitation in the area throughout the ages."
1703,3,Sandstone
1704,2,"This panel is sat on MOD land, in the field north of the ruined settlement at West Loups?s, 11 m north of walling and on a slight ridge above a small marshy area.     Further examples of rock art can be found in most directions within 1300 m. A concentration of carvings appear around the ruined medieval settlement of West Loups?s directly south.    A number of fields in the area display drainage channels and quarrying has also taken place on crags to the north.    With the cluster of carvings, field systems, settlement and circular banked feature this area has seen extensive multi-period activity."
1704,3,Sandstone
1704,7,Sandstone
1704,1,"This stone could either be exposed outcrop or a large free-standing boulder.    A number of depressions of varying size, depth and shape are scattered about its entire surface, with the most cup-like being towards the east and south-east. Several areas are made of large grain quartz, where this occurs circular, naturally weathered bowls revealing bedding planes can be seen. All of the cup-like depressions are extremely friable with several exhibiting quartz pebbles protruding from the bottom. Due to the friability of the rock and weathering it would be difficult to say that any features are definitely carved.    Centrally, a projectile from the firing range looks to have hit the stone with shrapnel causing a starburst effect."

1705,5,Peck marks visible in various motifs
1705,1,"This carving sits under a protective stone, placed 3 m north of the most north-eastern ruined building at West Loups?s.    The motifs consist of a single cup and ring in a central position, a cup with an arc just north of centre, further cups of varying size spread about the north end, and a smaller cup can be seen away from the others on the south-west corner.    One noticeable difference from the majority of other carvings in the area, is the apparent freshness with tooling marks being clearly visible within most motifs. Whether the freshness is the result of being carved later or covered is difficult to determine.    Reference 7 in the West Loups section of the 1998 publication, ?Prehistoric Rock Art of County Durham, Swaledale and Wensleydale?."
1705,8,"The carved stone is protected by a heavy covering stone placed on resting blocks, this appears to have already caused damage to the stone during removal. Carving is relocated and burial may give better protection."
1705,10,Protective Stone could move and cause damage
1705,2,"Situated on MOD land, 3 m north of the north-eastern ruined building at West Loups?s, now under a protective flat stones.     The visible remains of the buildings at West Loups?s are thought to belong to a 17th century farmstead, with possibly some ruins being medieval in date.  An earthen bank, of uncertain provenance curves round the settlement from north to east and incorporates a small rectangular earthwork.     Further examples of rock art can be found on lower ground 85 m south (near a spring), 145 and 188 m south-west, 240 m north-north-east and two are 450 m directly south. These, with the cluster of carvings around Goldsborough to the north-west and East Loups?s to the east would suggest the area has been inhabited from prehistoric times onwards.    Given the stones position and good state of preservation it is unlikely to be its original location and has probably been moved."

1706,2,"A probable area of exposed outcrop close to the foot of a slight decline and incorporated in an old field wall, 5m  north-east of a gate and 30 m south of the most southerly building of West Loups?s.     The area shows signs of multi-period activity with several other carvings within 400 m, a ruined farmstead, field systems and a curved earthen bank of uncertain provenance all being present."

1706,7,Sandstone
1706,1,"A probable exposed area of bedrock forming part of denuded field walling. Two flat stones are place on top protecting it from M.O.Dprojectiles.    The motifs consist of four shallow cups with rings and an additional four shallow cups. All the cups are large for the area with diameters varying between 0.08 and 0.11m. A carving with the ERA reference 1709, 380 m south shows similar large shallow cups and rings.     Its position in a dip and extremely narrow viewshed is fairly unusual for rock art in the area, however, its proximity to a spring isn?t.

1707,7,Sandstone
1707,1,"This panel consists of an area of bedrock split into two, with carvings on each part.     The first area is exposed, with a possible vertical quarried edge on the western side.  Motifs consist of a single cup and ring carved on a raised area and a single cup towards the western side. There are signs of erosion around the bedding planes and the motifs are extremely faint. Previous references suggest a possible ring to the western single cup, but this wasn?t apparent on any of the projects visits and may have since eroded.     Immediately south of the exposed bedrock, a small area has split away (although could be bedrock), two well formed cups displaying peck marks can be found in a square section that has either been quarried out, or split by planar erosion.    Reference 5 in the West Loups section of the 1998 publication, ?Prehistoric Rock Art of County Durham, Swaledale and Wensleydale?."
1707,2,"This carving is situated on MOD land, 29 m south-west of the junction between the fence and wall, approx 13  south of the wall.     The most westerly remains of the buildings at West Loups?s are 110 m east-north-east. These remains are thought to belong to a 17th century farmstead, with possibly some ruins being medieval in date.  An earthen bank of uncertain provenance curves round the settlement from north to east and incorporates a small rectangular earthwork.     In the vicinity of this panel, the bedrock displays signs of having been quarried and a small barrow shaped hillock to the east stands out as a strange natural feature. Further examples of rock art can be found 130 m east, 140 m north-east, 42 m south-west and 390 m south-south-east. These, with the cluster of carvings around Goldsborough to the north-west and East Loups?s to the east, plus signs of later quarrying and field systems would suggest the area has been inhabited throughout the ages."

Further examples of rock art can be found 170 m east, 185 m north-east, 42 m north-east and 380 m south-south-east either side of the Pennine Way. Although difficult to say with any degree of certainty, the position of this carving and the two others along the Pennine Way, open up the possibility of a long standing routeway being present in the area."

1709,1,"This panel is situated a few metres west of the Pennine Way, with only the lichen encrusted non-carved west side currently exposed.     The stone is set at an angle, with the sloping carved surface facing south towards the Pennine Way. Motifs consist of three separate cups with rings, two of which have grooves, a cup with a possible ring, two - three further cups, a linear groove running east-west across the stone and an area of peck marks between the central motifs. A fissure also runs through one cup, and a cup and ring. It is worth noting that the cups and rings are broad and shallow, both of which are characteristics of ERA1706 some 370 m north.     The position facing the Pennine Way may be significant, especially if this routeway has been used since ancient times. Fully exposed, the motifs would have been easily discernable to anybody walking north towards West Loups?s and Goldsborough.    Reference 2 in the West Loups section of the 1998 publication, ?Prehistoric Rock Art of County Durham, Swaledale and Wensleydale?."
1710,2,"This carving sits a few metres east of the Pennine Way, 28 m north-north-west of the gate on Kearton Rigg and 6 m west of the fence.     A definite carving is on the west side of the Pennine Way, 8 m west-north-west and further examples can be found 370-450 m north-north-west and north around the medieval farmstead at West Loups?s.

1710,1,"This stone has a contoured surface and seven cup-like depressions towards the east and west ends. However, all are either irregular, shallow or both and the stone is friable in parts with sand grains evident in some depressions. A number of wide channels can be seen across the stone in various directions.     The features may have been formed through a mixture of differential weathering, planar erosion and weakness in the stones cement (silica / calcite). However, its position 8 m east of a definite carved rock should leave open the possibility that some of the features could have started out artificial, but have since become eroded.    Reference 3 in the West Loups section of the 1998 publication, ?Prehistoric Rock Art of County Durham, Swaledale and Wensleydale?."
1711,2,"This earth-fast square-ish slab is situated on Goldsborough Rigg, approx 110 ms east from the foot of the incline to Goldsborough, positioned just north of higher ground.

Motifs consist of fifteen single cups scattered about the stone centrally and on the north and west edges, in the centre a group of four cups with rings (some incomplete) join each other, a further five cups also have rings and one northern cup has a short groove leading to the edge.     The stone is comprised of fairly large grains with quartz pebbles being evident in some places. Planar erosion has affected the east and west sides in antiquity and created a flat canvas for the carvers. A number of the cups and rings are heavily eroded, with the large grain size probably making the stone more susceptible to weathering.    Reference 1 in the Goldsborough section of the 1998 publication, ?Prehistoric Rock Art of County Durham, Swaledale and Wensleydale?."

The motifs consist of a cup and ring, a cup and ring with a groove, three further cups with arcs and possibly three-four single cups. Some of the arcs may well have been complete rings in the past, but weathering has made this difficult to determine. The stone was initially recorded by the project in April 2005, when only the northern half was visible, by June 2007 the whole stone had become exposed revealing the more defined motifs at the southern end.    The large grains may make the stone more susceptible to erosion.

The motifs consist of sixteen uniform cups, plus four others, which could be either artificial or natural. At the south-west end are several small depressions which the project initially recorded as 'possible preparation for cups or picking in rosette form', this was difficult to determine on a later visit. The stones surface is heavily pitted and more depressions could be cup marks but their irregular shape and depth make this difficult to determine.

1730,1,"This is a relatively flat stone close to the field?s south-west corner.    It is comprised of mainly coarse-grained sandstone and has two distinct levels, with a lower bedding plane on the western edge. Most other carvings in the Baldersdale area are relatively simple in design, with this particular carving being one of the more intricate. Its position, approx 65 m north-west of a spring (Molly Well) is also worthy of note.     Motifs consist of a countersunk cup and ring on the south-west corner, a wide groove leads out north-west of this motif to a larger cup and ring in a central position, the groove continues through this central motif to another countersunk cup and ring, which incorporates two cups in the ring. At this junction, a further groove runs at right angles across the stone to the north and south edges. Two shorter grooves branch out of the large grooves to cups, one of which turns back into the larger central cup and ring. Towards the west end is a faint sub rectangular groove enclosing a faint small cup in its southern corner, the shallow depth of these particular motifs may suggest them being added at different times. On the north-east corner is a single cup and ring on a lower layer, and south of that, a cup is connected to a penannular via a short groove. Other motifs include twelve single cups, a cup and ring with a short groove, a short linear groove and two cups linked via a short groove.    Tooling marks are evident in most motifs, along with other areas of random pecking. However, the stones coarse grain has resulted in a certain degree of pitting, so some ?pecks? and possibly smaller cups may well be weathered pitting.     The majority of the motifs survive well, this may indicate that the majority of its formative years have been spent under turf.

1744,2,"Although this carving is relatively simple in design, its position is nonetheless intriguing.     It can found on the lip of a terrace which forms the south-east edge of an Iron-Age palisaded enclosure. Excavation of this site also revealed several hundred flints, some of which displayed Mesolithic characteristics. On the east of the enclosure a further small trapezoidal enclosure can be found. These sites, along with the rock-art would suggest human activity in the area over millennia. An abundance of water, with two springs approx 200 m south may be part of the reason for the location choice.    The rock art sites around Howgill Grange appear on the same contour line between 390 - 730 m northeast and Blake Hill carvings are 1100 m northwest.

Both depressions are set in the middle of a small patch of reddening which has become ingrained within the stone. The project team discussed whether this could be the result of oxidisation, suggesting that a metal object had been resting on the stone, which in turn lead to discussion over pivot stones. 100 met to the south and south east strip lynchets skirt the incline meaning medieval agricultural activity was close by.    However, the shape of the cup and the presence of a cairn 30 m southeast dictate its ?prehistoric? nature remains compelling.    A single, more definite pitting mark can be seen between the larger depressions."
1750,1,This carving according to the SMR reference is in a field west of Howgill Grange. It could not be located during two separate fieldtrips by project teams. There's a possibility it could be a duplication of SMR 6518 ref 1735 or has been removed.

1802,10006,A single cup.
1802,10011,"In February 1973 a group of students from Alnwick College of Education, based at the castle, had asked me to take them to see some rock art. Their main course disciplines were different. When we were about to leave the site after looking at the North Plantation rocks when light snow began to fall, Murray Chisholm, a music student, called us back as we went to the minibus. He had noticed a large cup on a rock among dead bracken. This turned out to be the most southerly of a series of rock motifs that covered a whole spine of outcrop rock.    With Lance Strother?s permission we returned, fully equipped, to see if any more rock art was hidden in the dead bracken; this proved to be so on the edges of the outcrop. A mound on the outcrop hinted at something else, so a 26m datum line was established along the length of the outcrop and trenches laid out parallel to it and at right angles. A careful systematic clearance of vegetation revealed piles of cobblestones on top, thinning out to the south. These were drawn and a pattern established where the mound was in the scatter. It had a double kerb and sat on top of the outcrop. The kerb was constructed by laying the two arcs of cobbles and packing the space between them with smaller stones. Cobbles were mostly used, but there was a small arc of pink igneous rock that had presumably been brought to the area originally by ice. A prominent feature of the inner kerb was an upright regular sandstone slab with two cups like eyes looking to the north.    As each cobblestone was cleaned as it emerged, some were found to have motifs pecked into them, mainly with simple cups but others more elaborately. There was sufficient of the mound intact to establish that it was not a field clearance heap, and that the motifs on the cobbles echoed those on the outcrop. The scale of this was unprecedented.    The northern part of the site was more confusing, and a large hollow with an edge of stone at first appeared to be an enclosure. It turned out to be a small quarry. The freestone here splits vertically and horizontally, producing good building blocks, until a floor is reached. This quarry could have removed decorated rock. There were many small slabs and cobbles of the type normally picked up during field clearance that may have been thrown to one side so the quarrymen could get at the good rock surface. They were in lines immediately at the western edge of the working. It is possible that other cairns were demolished in this clearing process. There was less disturbance to the south, though there had been trees there. The whole area is surrounded by magnificent old beech trees, and the planting of these would have caused disturbance. To the east is a large circular hollow that we investigated; it proved to be another of these quarries also seen on Weetwood Moor. The logic seemed to be to locate a good edge of freestone, then exploit it forward and sideways. It is possible to mistake such hollows as settlement sites; it is also possible to mistake limited rectangular stone extraction for a cist.    A profile cross-section of the site shows that there was a very thin layer of sand above the outcrop beneath the cobbles of the mound; in this was the only artefact: a sealed in worked flint that could be used as a scraper of knife and belong to the Neolithic-early Bronze Age period. There was no evidence of any time gap between the mound and the marking of the outcrop, and the thin sand was sterile. The stones of the mound and other scattered stones were from 10-40 cm long, mostly sandstone, with the odd volcanic erratic.     The most important feature of this site is the distribution of marked cobbles. Not only did they form part of the mound, but four kerbstones were cup marked and have been left buried in situ. The rest have been removed to the Museum of Antiquities except for Fowberry Excavation site - Cairn n, which is at Berwick Museum, and Fowberry Excavation site - Cairn r , which could not be relocated during the project.    The decoration on the removed cobbles  varies from simple cups to a complex cup-penannular-radiate design. This complex design was on a cobble found south of the projected south edge of the outer kerb ? unless the mound was longer along its north-south axis, which we don?t know because there was only a light scatter of stone there and more possibility that the outcrop had been cleared of any covering stone. For anyone trying to peck a cup into a cobble, the danger is that the rock will split with the force of the blow. It takes skill."
1802,10016,The name Fowberry means the fortification of the foal.
1803,10006,It has two sets of cups and an interesting scatter of pick marks around them.
1803,10011,This portable came from the Lilburn area.
1803,10021,"This panel might not be on display, in which case prior arrangements will have to be made with the museum to view it."
1803,1,"Dark weathered sandstone triangular cobble. Group of three cup marks on one flattish surface (two of which merge), plus two pecked depressions/cups/cups - smaller and shallower than the main cups. Largest cup measures 0.110 m-0.08 m by 0.05 m depth, another 0.07 m by 0.07 m by 0.025 m, and the smallest 0.05 m by 0.05 m by 0.02 m. Two small pecked depressions about 0.02 m by 0.03 m by 0.005 m. Other areas of pecking - but not easy to distinguish from bruising, accidental damage later. Plough scuff marks on diagonally opposite face. Yellow lichen still clinging to stone."
1804,10006,"The cobble is marked on two sides: there are four very deep, well made cups and a smaller cup on one side; on the other flat surface are two shallow pecked cups."
1804,10011,Found loose in the triangular field east of A697.
1804,10021,"This panel might not be on display, in which case prior arrangements will have to be made with the museum to view it."
1804,5,Peck marks and plough marks
1804,1,"This boulder has two worked surfaces. The ""top"" and ""bottom"" are flatter than the side faces. On the flattest surface there are four distinct clearly worked cups with general dimensions: - 0.08 m by 0.075 m and 0.03 m - 0.04 m deep. Between these, in a fairly symmetrical pattern, there are worked areas forming shallow depressions. General dimensions 0.03 m by 0.03 m and 0.01 m deep at maximum.    This face is less dramatic than the opposite one.  The surface is not as smooth/flat and the cups are less well-formed (especially the smaller one).  The larger cup is 0.07 m by 0.06 m by 0.02 m deep.  he smaller cup is 0.04 m by 0.035 m by 0.005 m deep. Plough marks are visible on this surface and on the sides of the stone.    Is this the same date of working as the above? Or earlier, possible?    Written on the rock: Triangular field site east of A697 (NU 118 045) found loose by Bob Robson and given to S.G.B."
1805,10006,A single cup.
1805,10011,"By chance, I (Stan Beckensall) was living nearby when the land around the Weetwood sites was bulldozed and cleared of heather and stone, ready for grass planting.  I had seen the low mound between the public path and the road, with a large stone projecting on the south side with two apparently natural cups on top.  The low mound, no higher than the large stone, oval in shape, had not been recorded, and had presumably gone unnoticed when permission was given for the field clearance to go ahead in May, 1982.    Boulders were removed from the area, and dumped beside the public footpath and at the edge of the outcrop hill, where some remain.  The mound was bulldozed, and the large stone lifted and dumped with other clearance, north of the footpath.  It was then that I saw the large stone, with its remarkable pattern of cup, concentric rings, and radial grooves.  The shallow hole from which it had been taken was just about visible in disturbed soil.  The farmer, David Murray, not only agreed to halt work at my (unofficial) request, but got his men to search the area for more decorated cobbles.  He also agreed to my excavating the site, and to its reinstatement after excavation.  He saved all the cobbles in a heap that had been removed from the site of the mound.    An examination of sparse documentation revealed that Canon Greenwell had investigated six possible burial cairns, two of which had cists with no bodies remaining.  These did not have precise locations, and only one is still visible, outside the area of rock art on the public footpath leading west from site 6.  I regarded the bulldozed site as a possible burial cairn, and set out my excavation grid in an area surrounded by recent ploughing.  Field walking in the disturbed ground did not produce any flints or other artefacts.    About three-quarters of the mound had been bulldozed away, and what was left was carefully trowelled to base.  At the same time, marked cobbles were being recovered and saved.      A team of eight people was involved in the excavation and recording.  Every stone left at base level in situ was recorded, and the area carefully examined for evidence of burial (a cist pit, for example).  There were no signs of burial.    The natural base of the field had a compact pebble layer, and the soil among the stones included pebbles.  Most of the cairn stones were of the cobble type, rounded, and they included volcanic rock brought down by ice.  The stones left in situ were not quarried, but were of the type found on the surface during clearance.  Only one edge of the oval-shaped mound retained any kind of integrity.  There was no kerb of larger stones, but the periphery was made up of cobbles, with the exception of the large, rounded sandstone boulder the motifs of which originally faced inward.  Its base was flat and had been sunk in a shallow hole, its flat base giving it sufficient stability to stand upright.    The drawing shows the disposition of the undisturbed stones in the mound, but there was nothing more to report other than the extraordinary number of marked cobbles found in the mound's structure.  21 were found in situ, mostly face-down.  I had found 4 in the spoil heaps before the excavation began, and the rest of the 'loose' marked stones were picked up by the farmers.  All the marked stones were sandstones, and no markings were found on volcanic rocks.    It was impossible to distinguish between recent and ancient disturbance at the centre of the mound, and there was no sign of a cist pit.  Had the mound been built over a body, there would be no survival.  There was no evidence of cremated remains or burning.    The large marked boulder could have been on the site as a standing stone, and the oval mound constructed with it as a kerb marker.  The fact that the motifs face into the mound and were not meant to be seen is important.  Even as a standing stone it is unlikely that its pattern would have faced north, for it was more likely to be viewed on the approach to the panels of rock art on the hill to the north.  The deliberate obscuring of uneroded motifs means that the motifs were a private and not a public gesture - not meant to be seen- and more concerned with the dead than the living.  They are different in concept from motifs in the landscape: it is as though they have been deliberately turned into the earth instead of facing the sky, and therefore more concerned with the dead than the living.  Even though the mound may not have been used either primarily or exclusively as a burial, it had an important ritual function in the landscape.  It does not lie among the markings on the hill, but stands on the edge of the concentration.    The placing of marked cobbles in a mound, a deliberate, calculated placement in the case of those turned face down, makes nonsense of the idea that they just happened to be a convenient building material lying around.  The cobbles had been selected for size, shape, and surface area, probably held on the lap, and chipped with a hard stone tool to produce cups and grooves.  All these pick marks are visible and uneroded, and some are marked on two sides.  Not all the motifs are completed, and it seems that the act of putting some basic symbols on the rocks was sufficient for the ritual purpose.    The presentation of the mound as an oval shape is largely conjectural, but it has the effect of allowing us to gather the loose stones together in one place, and of highlighting the position of the standing kerb stone.  It will also keep machinery clear of this stone.  Most of the marked cobbles are at Berwick Museum, but one was requested by the Science Museum, London.  One was left, sentimentally, on the mound.    This site, together with the one close by at Fowberry, has given us a new dimension on the use of rock art in monuments.  Mounds incorporating marked cobbles are very rare, but the discovery of similar cobbles in walls and field clearance heaps suggests that other destroyed mounds might have contained them.  When we excavated the massive cairn at Blawearie, we examined every cobble within the mound, and not one was marked. The reason why some mounds were chosen for this ritual is unknown.  One may put forward the idea that the marked cobbles were rather like wreaths at a funeral: that people made them and placed them in the burial mound.    Since the excavation and reinstatement of the mound there have been other finds of small marked cobbles in the area, one of which is at Fowberry Cottage."

1805,2,"For the history of Weetwood Cairn excavation see Beckensall Archive notes.  Many of the stones found undisturbed had been placed with the motif facing inwards.  The unweathered state of the carving compared with the other faces of the stone illustrates the effect of this very well.    This area is a low Fell Sandstone Group block that rises from east to west.  Rock art panels are found along a slightly elevated ridge, rising generally with the trend, but with slight slopes to the north and south.  Much bedrock is exposed on the ridge top, with low natural and, where quarried, higher crags along the flanks.  The area is mainly rough grazing and moorland, bounded by stonewalls and fences, separated from improved and cleared grasslands for stock and gamebird plantations.    Wide views can be obtained from the rock art locations.  However, in places the adjacent rising ground of the higher Whitsun Bank and Coldmartin areas prevents distant views.  The Cheviot and Fell Sandstone Hills distantly ring the site to the west, north and east with other rock art areas visible, such as Doddington Moor/Dod Law, Gled Law, Buttony and Horton areas, as well as the main Fell Sandstone Group arc.  The more elevated portions of this area overlook the Milfield Basin and River Till lowland areas.    There are no later prehistoric monuments in the immediate area, though a series of settlements is known nearby. Post Medieval activity has, however, taken place.  Much evidence of quarrying is present with many ?steps?, and sheer and sharp edges of remaining rock at the east of the ridge.  A stonewalled enclosure has been recorded in the western part of the area, continuing into the adjacent plantation.  These constructions, together with the adjacent stonewalls, and clearance of the lower slopes and surrounding fields, may have destrroyed other prehistoric monuments and rock art panels.  A number of modern walker?s cairns are located beside some of the rock art panels."

1805,1,"The rock is quite weathered so it is difficult to say whether the ""pick-marks"" are as they were originally.

Conical in cross-section 0.08 m by 0.075 m, 0.03 m deep.  Worked edge of the cup is very clear in the surface which is slightly concave."

It was then that I saw the large stone, with its remarkable pattern of cup, concentric rings, and radial grooves.  The shallow hole from which it had been taken was just about visible in disturbed soil.  The farmer, David Murray, not only agreed to halt work at my (unofficial) request, but got his men to search the area for more decorated cobbles.  He also agreed to my excavating the site, and to its reinstatement after excavation.  He saved all the cobbles in a heap that had been removed from the site of the mound.    An examination of sparse documentation revealed that Canon Greenwell had investigated six possible burial cairns, two of which had cists with no bodies remaining.  These did not have precise locations, and only one is still visible, outside the area of rock art on the public footpath leading west from site 6.  I regarded the bulldozed site as a possible burial cairn, and set out my excavation grid in an area surrounded by recent ploughing.  Field walking in the disturbed ground did not produce any flints or other artefacts.    About three-quarters of the mound had been bulldozed away, and what was left was carefully trowelled to base.  At the same time, marked cobbles were being recovered and saved.      A team of eight people was involved in the excavation and recording.  Every stone left at base level in situ was recorded, and the area carefully examined for evidence of burial (a cist pit, for example).  There were no signs of burial.    The natural base of the field had a compact pebble layer, and the soil among the stones included pebbles.  Most of the cairn stones were of the cobble type, rounded, and they included volcanic rock brought down by ice.  The stones left in situ were not quarried, but were of the type found on the surface during clearance.  Only one edge of the oval-shaped mound retained any kind of integrity.  There was no kerb of larger stones, but the periphery was made up of cobbles, with the exception of the large, rounded sandstone boulder the motifs of which originally faced inward.  Its base was flat and had been sunk in a shallow hole, its flat base giving it sufficient stability to stand upright.    The drawing shows the disposition of the undisturbed stones in the mound, but there was nothing more to report other than the extraordinary number of marked cobbles found in the mound's structure.  21 were found in situ, mostly face-down.  I had found 4 in the spoil heaps before the excavation began, and the rest of the 'loose' marked stones were picked up by the farmers.  All the marked stones were sandstones, and no markings were found on volcanic rocks.    It was impossible to distinguish between recent and ancient disturbance at the centre of the mound, and there was no sign of a cist pit.  Had the mound been built over a body, there would be no survival.  There was no evidence of cremated remains or burning.    The large marked boulder could have been on the site as a standing stone, and the oval mound constructed with it as a kerb marker.  The fact that the motifs face into the mound and were not meant to be seen is important.  Even as a standing stone it is unlikely that its pattern would have faced north, for it was more likely to be viewed on the approach to the panels of rock art on the hill to the north.  The deliberate obscuring of uneroded motifs means that the motifs were a private and not a public gesture - not meant to be seen- and more concerned with the dead than the living.  They are different in concept from motifs in the landscape: it is as though they have been deliberately turned into the earth instead of facing the sky, and therefore more concerned with the dead than the living.  Even though the mound may not have been used either primarily or exclusively as a burial, it had an important ritual function in the landscape.  It does not lie among the markings on the hill, but stands on the edge of the concentration.    The placing of marked cobbles in a mound, a deliberate, calculated placement in the case of those turned face down, makes nonsense of the idea that they just happened to be a convenient building material lying around.  The cobbles had been selected for size, shape, and surface area, probably held on the lap, and chipped with a hard stone tool to produce cups and grooves.  All these pick marks are visible and uneroded, and some are marked on two sides.  Not all the motifs are completed, and it seems that the act of putting some basic symbols on the rocks was sufficient for the ritual purpose.    The presentation of the mound as an oval shape is largely conjectural, but it has the effect of allowing us to gather the loose stones together in one place, and of highlighting the position of the standing kerb stone.  It will also keep machinery clear of this stone.  Most of the marked cobbles are at Berwick Museum, but one was requested by the Science Museum, London.  One was left, sentimentally, on the mound.    This site, together with the one close by at Fowberry, has given us a new dimension on the use of rock art in monuments.  Mounds incorporating marked cobbles are very rare, but the discovery of similar cobbles in walls and field clearance heaps suggests that other destroyed mounds might have contained them.  When we excavated the massive cairn at Blawearie, we examined every cobble within the mound, and not one was marked. The reason why some mounds were chosen for this ritual is unknown.  One may put forward the idea that the marked cobbles were rather like wreaths at a funeral: that people made them and placed them in the burial mound.

1809,2,"For the history of Weetwood Cairn excavation see Beckensall Archive notes.      This area is a low Fell Sandstone Group block that rises from east to west.  Rock art panels are found along a slightly elevated ridge, rising generally with the trend, but with slight slopes to the north and south.  Much bedrock is exposed on the ridge top, with low natural and, where quarried, higher crags along the flanks.  The area is mainly rough grazing and moorland, bounded by stonewalls and fences, separated from improved and cleared grasslands for stock and gamebird plantations.    Wide views can be obtained from the rock art locations.  However, in places the adjacent rising ground of the higher Whitsun Bank and Coldmartin areas prevents distant views.  The Cheviot and Fell Sandstone Hills distantly ring the site to the west, north and east with other rock art areas visible, such as Doddington Moor/Dod Law, Gled Law, Buttony and Horton areas, as well as the main Fell Sandstone Group arc.  The more elevated portions of this area overlook the Milfield Basin and River Till lowland areas.    There are no later prehistoric monuments in the immediate area, though a series of settlements is known nearby. Post Medieval activity has, however, taken place.  Much evidence of quarrying is present with many ?steps?, and sheer and sharp edges of remaining rock at the east of the ridge.  A stonewalled enclosure has been recorded in the western part of the area, continuing into the adjacent plantation.  These constructions, together with the adjacent stonewalls, and clearance of the lower slopes and surrounding fields, may have destrroyed other prehistoric monuments and rock art panels.  A number of modern walker?s cairns are located beside some of the rock art panels."

The stone has a pinkish hue from iron staining in the fabric of the rock, and clear cross-bedding is visible. The 'cup' is made at right angles to this bedding, which is fairly unusual - generally a bedding plane surface is selected. The very shallow 'cup' is uneven in outline approximately 0.07 m by 0.055 m and maximum 0.0075 m deep. It is not clear whether a circular shape was intended or some other motif.

These did not have precise locations, and only one is still visible, outside the area of rock art on the public footpath leading west from site 6.  I regarded the bulldozed site as a possible burial cairn, and set out my excavation grid in an area surrounded by recent ploughing.  Field walking in the disturbed ground did not produce any flints or other artefacts.    About three-quarters of the mound had been bulldozed away, and what was left was carefully trowelled to base.  At the same time, marked cobbles were being recovered and saved.      A team of eight people was involved in the excavation and recording.  Every stone left at base level in situ was recorded, and the area carefully examined for evidence of burial (a cist pit, for example).  There were no signs of burial.    The natural base of the field had a compact pebble layer, and the soil among the stones included pebbles.  Most of the cairn stones were of the cobble type, rounded, and they included volcanic rock brought down by ice.  The stones left in situ were not quarried, but were of the type found on the surface during clearance.  Only one edge of the oval-shaped mound retained any kind of integrity.  There was no kerb of larger stones, but the periphery was made up of cobbles, with the exception of the large, rounded sandstone boulder the motifs of which originally faced inward.  Its base was flat and had been sunk in a shallow hole, its flat base giving it sufficient stability to stand upright.    The drawing shows the disposition of the undisturbed stones in the mound, but there was nothing more to report other than the extraordinary number of marked cobbles found in the mound's structure.  21 were found in situ, mostly face-down.  I had found 4 in the spoil heaps before the excavation began, and the rest of the 'loose' marked stones were picked up by the farmers.  All the marked stones were sandstones, and no markings were found on volcanic rocks.    It was impossible to distinguish between recent and ancient disturbance at the centre of the mound, and there was no sign of a cist pit.  Had the mound been built over a body, there would be no survival.  There was no evidence of cremated remains or burning.    The large marked boulder could have been on the site as a standing stone, and the oval mound constructed with it as a kerb marker.  The fact that the motifs face into the mound and were not meant to be seen is important.  Even as a standing stone it is unlikely that its pattern would have faced north, for it was more likely to be viewed on the approach to the panels of rock art on the hill to the north.  The deliberate obscuring of uneroded motifs means that the motifs were a private and not a public gesture - not meant to be seen- and more concerned with the dead than the living.  They are different in concept from motifs in the landscape: it is as though they have been deliberately turned into the earth instead of facing the sky, and therefore more concerned with the dead than the living.  Even though the mound may not have been used either primarily or exclusively as a burial, it had an important ritual function in the landscape.  It does not lie among the markings on the hill, but stands on the edge of the concentration.    The placing of marked cobbles in a mound, a deliberate, calculated placement in the case of those turned face down, makes nonsense of the idea that they just happened to be a convenient building material lying around.  The cobbles had been selected for size, shape, and surface area, probably held on the lap, and chipped with a hard stone tool to produce cups and grooves.  All these pick marks are visible and uneroded, and some are marked on two sides.  Not all the motifs are completed, and it seems that the act of putting some basic symbols on the rocks was sufficient for the ritual purpose.    The presentation of the mound as an oval shape is largely conjectural, but it has the effect of allowing us to gather the loose stones together in one place, and of highlighting the position of the standing kerb stone.  It will also keep machinery clear of this stone.  Most of the marked cobbles are at Berwick Museum, but one was requested by the Science Museum, London.  One was left, sentimentally, on the mound.    This site, together with the one close by at Fowberry, has given us a new dimension on the use of rock art in monuments.  Mounds incorporating marked cobbles are very rare, but the discovery of similar cobbles in walls and field clearance heaps suggests that other destroyed mounds might have contained them.  When we excavated the massive cairn at Blawearie, we examined every cobble within the mound, and not one was marked. The reason why some mounds were chosen for this ritual is unknown.  One may put forward the idea that the marked cobbles were rather like wreaths at a funeral: that people made them and placed them in the burial mound.

Side 1 - The two cups are about 0.05 m by 0.04 m by 0.01 - 0.02 m deep. They are joined by a wide shallower groove. In general appearance this side looks a bit like a human? face.

1813,10011,"By chance, I (Stan Beckensall) was living nearby when the land around the Weetwood sites was bulldozed and cleared of heather and stone, ready for grass planting.  I had seen the low mound between the public path and the road, with a large stone projecting on the south side with two apparently natural cups on top.  The low mound, no higher than the large stone, oval in shape, had not been recorded, and had presumably gone unnoticed when permission was given for the field clearance to go ahead in May, 1982.    Boulders were removed from the area, and dumped beside the public footpath and at the edge of the outcrop hill, where some remain.  The mound was bulldozed, and the large stone lifted and dumped with other clearance, north of the footpath.  It was then that I saw the large stone, with its remarkable pattern of cup, concentric rings, and radial grooves.

1816,10006,A single cup.
1816,10011,"By chance, I (Stan Beckensall) was living nearby when the land around the Weetwood sites was bulldozed and cleared of heather and stone, ready for grass planting.  I had seen the low mound between the public path and the road, with a large stone projecting on the south side with two apparently natural cups on top.  The low mound, no higher than the large stone, oval in shape, had not been recorded, and had presumably gone unnoticed when permission was given for the field clearance to go ahead in May, 1982.    Boulders were removed from the area, and dumped beside the public footpath and at the edge of the outcrop hill, where some remain.  The mound was bulldozed, and the large stone lifted and dumped with other clearance, north of the footpath.  It was then that I saw the large stone, with its remarkable pattern of cup, concentric rings, and radial grooves.  The shallow hole from which it had been taken was just about visible in disturbed soil.  The farmer, David Murray, not only agreed to halt work at my (unofficial) request, but got his men to search the area for more decorated cobbles.  He also agreed to my excavating the site, and to its reinstatement after excavation.  He saved all the cobbles in a heap that had been removed from the site of the mound.    An examination of sparse documentation revealed that Canon Greenwell had investigated six possible burial cairns, two of which had cists with no bodies remaining.  These did not have precise locations, and only one is still visible, outside the area of rock art on the public footpath leading west from site 6.  I regarded the bulldozed site as a possible burial cairn, and set out my excavation grid in an area surrounded by recent ploughing.  Field walking in the disturbed ground did not produce any flints or other artefacts.    About three-quarters of the mound had been bulldozed away, and what was left was carefully trowelled to base.  At the same time, marked cobbles were being recovered and saved.      A team of eight people was involved in the excavation and recording.  Every stone left at base level in situ was recorded, and the area carefully examined for evidence of burial (a cist pit, for example).  There were no signs of burial.    The natural base of the field had a compact pebble layer, and the soil among the stones included pebbles.  Most of the cairn stones were of the cobble type, rounded, and they included volcanic rock brought down by ice.  The stones left in situ were not quarried, but were of the type found on the surface during clearance.  Only one edge of the oval-shaped mound retained any kind of integrity.  There was no kerb of larger stones, but the periphery was made up of cobbles, with the exception of the large, rounded sandstone boulder the motifs of which originally faced inward.  Its base was flat and had been sunk in a shallow hole, its flat base giving it sufficient stability to stand upright.    The drawing shows the disposition of the undisturbed stones in the mound, but there was nothing more to report other than the extraordinary number of marked cobbles found in the mound's structure.  21 were found in situ, mostly face-down.  I had found 4 in the spoil heaps before the excavation began, and the rest of the 'loose' marked stones were picked up by the farmers.  All the marked stones were sandstones, and no markings were found on volcanic rocks.    It was impossible to distinguish between recent and ancient disturbance at the centre of the mound, and there was no sign of a cist pit.  Had the mound been built over a body, there would be no survival.  There was no evidence of cremated remains or burning.    The large marked boulder could have been on the site as a standing stone, and the oval mound constructed with it as a kerb marker.  The fact that the motifs face into the mound and were not meant to be seen is important.  Even as a standing stone it is unlikely that its pattern would have faced north, for it was more likely to be viewed on the approach to the panels of rock art on the hill to the north.  The deliberate obscuring of uneroded motifs means that the motifs were a private and not a public gesture - not meant to be seen- and more concerned with the dead than the living.  They are different in concept from motifs in the landscape: it is as though they have been deliberately turned into the earth instead of facing the sky, and therefore more concerned with the dead than the living.  Even though the mound may not have been used either primarily or exclusively as a burial, it had an important ritual function in the landscape.  It does not lie among the markings on the hill, but stands on the edge of the concentration.    The placing of marked cobbles in a mound, a deliberate, calculated placement in the case of those turned face down, makes nonsense of the idea that they just happened to be a convenient building material lying around.  The cobbles had been selected for size, shape, and surface area, probably held on the lap, and chipped with a hard stone tool to produce cups and grooves.  All these pick marks are visible and uneroded, and some are marked on two sides.  Not all the motifs are completed, and it seems that the act of putting some basic symbols on the rocks was sufficient for the ritual purpose.    The presentation of the mound as an oval shape is largely conjectural, but it has the effect of allowing us to gather the loose stones together in one place, and of highlighting the position of the standing kerb stone.  It will also keep machinery clear of this stone.  Most of the marked cobbles are at Berwick Museum, but one was requested by the Science Museum, London.  One was left, sentimentally, on the mound.    This site, together with the one close by at Fowberry, has given us a new dimension on the use of rock art in monuments.  Mounds incorporating marked cobbles are very rare, but the discovery of similar cobbles in walls and field clearance heaps suggests that other destroyed mounds might have contained them.  When we excavated the massive cairn at Blawearie, we examined every cobble within the mound, and not one was marked. The reason why some mounds were chosen for this ritual is unknown.  One may put forward the idea that the marked cobbles were rather like wreaths at a funeral: that people made them and placed them in the burial mound.    Since the excavation and reinstatement of the mound there have been other finds of small marked cobbles in the area, one of which is at Fowberry Cottage."

Rock art panels are found along a slightly elevated ridge, rising generally with the trend, but with slight slopes to the north and south.  Much bedrock is exposed on the ridge top, with low natural and, where quarried, higher crags along the flanks.  The area is mainly rough grazing and moorland, bounded by stonewalls and fences, separated from improved and cleared grasslands for stock and gamebird plantations.    Wide views can be obtained from the rock art locations.  However, in places the adjacent rising ground of the higher Whitsun Bank and Coldmartin areas prevents distant views.  The Cheviot and Fell Sandstone Hills distantly ring the site to the west, north and east with other rock art areas visible, such as Doddington Moor/Dod Law, Gled Law, Buttony and Horton areas, as well as the main Fell Sandstone Group arc.

1820,10006,A single cup.
1820,10011,"By chance, I (Stan Beckensall) was living nearby when the land around the Weetwood sites was bulldozed and cleared of heather and stone, ready for grass planting.  I had seen the low mound between the public path and the road, with a large stone projecting on the south side with two apparently natural cups on top.  The low mound, no higher than the large stone, oval in shape, had not been recorded, and had presumably gone unnoticed when permission was given for the field clearance to go ahead in May, 1982.    Boulders were removed from the area, and dumped beside the public footpath and at the edge of the outcrop hill, where some remain.  The mound was bulldozed, and the large stone lifted and dumped with other clearance, north of the footpath.  It was then that I saw the large stone, with its remarkable pattern of cup, concentric rings, and radial grooves.  The shallow hole from which it had been taken was just about visible in disturbed soil.  The farmer, David Murray, not only agreed to halt work at my (unofficial) request, but got his men to search the area for more decorated cobbles.  He also agreed to my excavating the site, and to its reinstatement after excavation.  He saved all the cobbles in a heap that had been removed from the site of the mound.    An examination of sparse documentation revealed that Canon Greenwell had investigated six possible burial cairns, two of which had cists with no bodies remaining.  These did not have precise locations, and only one is still visible, outside the area of rock art on the public footpath leading west from site 6.  I regarded the bulldozed site as a possible burial cairn, and set out my excavation grid in an area surrounded by recent ploughing.  Field walking in the disturbed ground did not produce any flints or other artefacts.    About three-quarters of the mound had been bulldozed away, and what was left was carefully trowelled to base.  At the same time, marked cobbles were being recovered and saved.      A team of eight people was involved in the excavation and recording.  Every stone left at base level in situ was recorded, and the area carefully examined for evidence of burial (a cist pit, for example).  There were no signs of burial.    The natural base of the field had a compact pebble layer, and the soil among the stones included pebbles.  Most of the cairn stones were of the cobble type, rounded, and they included volcanic rock brought down by ice.  The stones left in situ were not quarried, but were of the type found on the surface during clearance.  Only one edge of the oval-shaped mound retained any kind of integrity.  There was no kerb of larger stones, but the periphery was made up of cobbles, with the exception of the large, rounded sandstone boulder the motifs of which originally faced inward.  Its base was flat and had been sunk in a shallow hole, its flat base giving it sufficient stability to stand upright.    The drawing shows the disposition of the undisturbed stones in the mound, but there was nothing more to report other than the extraordinary number of marked cobbles found in the mound's structure.  21 were found in situ, mostly face-down.  I had found 4 in the spoil heaps before the excavation began, and the rest of the 'loose' marked stones were picked up by the farmers.  All the marked stones were sandstones, and no markings were found on volcanic rocks.    It was impossible to distinguish between recent and ancient disturbance at the centre of the mound, and there was no sign of a cist pit.  Had the mound been built over a body, there would be no survival.  There was no evidence of cremated remains or burning.    The large marked boulder could have been on the site as a standing stone, and the oval mound constructed with it as a kerb marker.  The fact that the motifs face into the mound and were not meant to be seen is important.  Even as a standing stone it is unlikely that its pattern would have faced north, for it was more likely to be viewed on the approach to the panels of rock art on the hill to the north.  The deliberate obscuring of uneroded motifs means that the motifs were a private and not a public gesture - not meant to be seen- and more concerned with the dead than the living.  They are different in concept from motifs in the landscape: it is as though they have been deliberately turned into the earth instead of facing the sky, and therefore more concerned with the dead than the living.  Even though the mound may not have been used either primarily or exclusively as a burial, it had an important ritual function in the landscape.  It does not lie among the markings on the hill, but stands on the edge of the concentration.    The placing of marked cobbles in a mound, a deliberate, calculated placement in the case of those turned face down, makes nonsense of the idea that they just happened to be a convenient building material lying around.  The cobbles had been selected for size, shape, and surface area, probably held on the lap, and chipped with a hard stone tool to produce cups and grooves.

1824,10011,"By chance, I (Stan Beckensall) was living nearby when the land around the Weetwood sites was bulldozed and cleared of heather and stone, ready for grass planting.  I had seen the low mound between the public path and the road, with a large stone projecting on the south side with two apparently natural cups on top.  The low mound, no higher than the large stone, oval in shape, had not been recorded, and had presumably gone unnoticed when permission was given for the field clearance to go ahead in May, 1982.    Boulders were removed from the area, and dumped beside the public footpath and at the edge of the outcrop hill, where some remain.  The mound was bulldozed, and the large stone lifted and dumped with other clearance, north of the footpath.  It was then that I saw the large stone, with its remarkable pattern of cup, concentric rings, and radial grooves.  The shallow hole from which it had been taken was just about visible in disturbed soil.  The farmer, David Murray, not only agreed to halt work at my (unofficial) request, but got his men to search the area for more decorated cobbles.  He also agreed to my excavating the site, and to its reinstatement after excavation.  He saved all the cobbles in a heap that had been removed from the site of the mound.    An examination of sparse documentation revealed that Canon Greenwell had investigated six possible burial cairns, two of which had cists with no bodies remaining.  These did not have precise locations, and only one is still visible, outside the area of rock art on the public footpath leading west from site 6.  I regarded the bulldozed site as a possible burial cairn, and set out my excavation grid in an area surrounded by recent ploughing.  Field walking in the disturbed ground did not produce any flints or other artefacts.    About three-quarters of the mound had been bulldozed away, and what was left was carefully trowelled to base.  At the same time, marked cobbles were being recovered and saved.      A team of eight people was involved in the excavation and recording.  Every stone left at base level in situ was recorded, and the area carefully examined for evidence of burial (a cist pit, for example).  There were no signs of burial.    The natural base of the field had a compact pebble layer, and the soil among the stones included pebbles.  Most of the cairn stones were of the cobble type, rounded, and they included volcanic rock brought down by ice.  The stones left in situ were not quarried, but were of the type found on the surface during clearance.  Only one edge of the oval-shaped mound retained any kind of integrity.  There was no kerb of larger stones, but the periphery was made up of cobbles, with the exception of the large, rounded sandstone boulder the motifs of which originally faced inward.  Its base was flat and had been sunk in a shallow hole, its flat base giving it sufficient stability to stand upright.    The drawing shows the disposition of the undisturbed stones in the mound, but there was nothing more to report other than the extraordinary number of marked cobbles found in the mound's structure.  21 were found in situ, mostly face-down.  I had found 4 in the spoil heaps before the excavation began, and the rest of the 'loose' marked stones were picked up by the farmers.  All the marked stones were sandstones, and no markings were found on volcanic rocks.    It was impossible to distinguish between recent and ancient disturbance at the centre of the mound, and there was no sign of a cist pit.  Had the mound been built over a body, there would be no survival.  There was no evidence of cremated remains or burning.    The large marked boulder could have been on the site as a standing stone, and the oval mound constructed with it as a kerb marker.  The fact that the motifs face into the mound and were not meant to be seen is important.  Even as a standing stone it is unlikely that its pattern would have faced north, for it was more likely to be viewed on the approach to the panels of rock art on the hill to the north.  The deliberate obscuring of uneroded motifs means that the motifs were a private and not a public gesture - not meant to be seen- and more concerned with the dead than the living.  They are different in concept from motifs in the landscape: it is as though they have been deliberately turned into the earth instead of facing the sky, and therefore more concerned with the dead than the living.  Even though the mound may not have been used either primarily or exclusively as a burial, it had an important ritual function in the landscape.  It does not lie among the markings on the hill, but stands on the edge of the concentration.    The placing of marked cobbles in a mound, a deliberate, calculated placement in the case of those turned face down, makes nonsense of the idea that they just happened to be a convenient building material lying around.  The cobbles had been selected for size, shape, and surface area, probably held on the lap, and chipped with a hard stone tool to produce cups and grooves.  All these pick marks are visible and uneroded, and some are marked on two sides.  Not all the motifs are completed, and it seems that the act of putting some basic symbols on the rocks was sufficient for the ritual purpose.    The presentation of the mound as an oval shape is largely conjectural, but it has the effect of allowing us to gather the loose stones together in one place, and of highlighting the position of the standing kerb stone.  It will also keep machinery clear of this stone.  Most of the marked cobbles are at Berwick Museum, but one was requested by the Science Museum, London.  One was left, sentimentally, on the mound.    This site, together with the one close by at Fowberry, has given us a new dimension on the use of rock art in monuments.  Mounds incorporating marked cobbles are very rare, but the discovery of similar cobbles in walls and field clearance heaps suggests that other destroyed mounds might have contained them.  When we excavated the massive cairn at Blawearie, we examined every cobble within the mound, and not one was marked. The reason why some mounds were chosen for this ritual is unknown.  One may put forward the idea that the marked cobbles were rather like wreaths at a funeral: that people made them and placed them in the burial mound.

The drawing shows the disposition of the undisturbed stones in the mound, but there was nothing more to report other than the extraordinary number of marked cobbles found in the mound's structure.  21 were found in situ, mostly face-down.  I had found 4 in the spoil heaps before the excavation began, and the rest of the 'loose' marked stones were picked up by the farmers.  All the marked stones were sandstones, and no markings were found on volcanic rocks.    It was impossible to distinguish between recent and ancient disturbance at the centre of the mound, and there was no sign of a cist pit.  Had the mound been built over a body, there would be no survival.  There was no evidence of cremated remains or burning.    The large marked boulder could have been on the site as a standing stone, and the oval mound constructed with it as a kerb marker.  The fact that the motifs face into the mound and were not meant to be seen is important.  Even as a standing stone it is unlikely that its pattern would have faced north, for it was more likely to be viewed on the approach to the panels of rock art on the hill to the north.  The deliberate obscuring of uneroded motifs means that the motifs were a private and not a public gesture - not meant to be seen- and more concerned with the dead than the living.  They are different in concept from motifs in the landscape: it is as though they have been deliberately turned into the earth instead of facing the sky, and therefore more concerned with the dead than the living.  Even though the mound may not have been used either primarily or exclusively as a burial, it had an important ritual function in the landscape.  It does not lie among the markings on the hill, but stands on the edge of the concentration.    The placing of marked cobbles in a mound, a deliberate, calculated placement in the case of those turned face down, makes nonsense of the idea that they just happened to be a convenient building material lying around.  The cobbles had been selected for size, shape, and surface area, probably held on the lap, and chipped with a hard stone tool to produce cups and grooves.  All these pick marks are visible and uneroded, and some are marked on two sides.  Not all the motifs are completed, and it seems that the act of putting some basic symbols on the rocks was sufficient for the ritual purpose.    The presentation of the mound as an oval shape is largely conjectural, but it has the effect of allowing us to gather the loose stones together in one place, and of highlighting the position of the standing kerb stone.  It will also keep machinery clear of this stone.  Most of the marked cobbles are at Berwick Museum, but one was requested by the Science Museum, London.  One was left, sentimentally, on the mound.    This site, together with the one close by at Fowberry, has given us a new dimension on the use of rock art in monuments.

1828,10006,A single cup.
1828,10011,"By chance, I (Stan Beckensall) was living nearby when the land around the Weetwood sites was bulldozed and cleared of heather and stone, ready for grass planting.  I had seen the low mound between the public path and the road, with a large stone projecting on the south side with two apparently natural cups on top.  The low mound, no higher than the large stone, oval in shape, had not been recorded, and had presumably gone unnoticed when permission was given for the field clearance to go ahead in May, 1982.    Boulders were removed from the area, and dumped beside the public footpath and at the edge of the outcrop hill, where some remain.  The mound was bulldozed, and the large stone lifted and dumped with other clearance, north of the footpath.  It was then that I saw the large stone, with its remarkable pattern of cup, concentric rings, and radial grooves.  The shallow hole from which it had been taken was just about visible in disturbed soil.  The farmer, David Murray, not only agreed to halt work at my (unofficial) request, but got his men to search the area for more decorated cobbles.  He also agreed to my excavating the site, and to its reinstatement after excavation.  He saved all the cobbles in a heap that had been removed from the site of the mound.    An examination of sparse documentation revealed that Canon Greenwell had investigated six possible burial cairns, two of which had cists with no bodies remaining.  These did not have precise locations, and only one is still visible, outside the area of rock art on the public footpath leading west from site 6.  I regarded the bulldozed site as a possible burial cairn, and set out my excavation grid in an area surrounded by recent ploughing.  Field walking in the disturbed ground did not produce any flints or other artefacts.    About three-quarters of the mound had been bulldozed away, and what was left was carefully trowelled to base.  At the same time, marked cobbles were being recovered and saved.      A team of eight people was involved in the excavation and recording.  Every stone left at base level in situ was recorded, and the area carefully examined for evidence of burial (a cist pit, for example).  There were no signs of burial.    The natural base of the field had a compact pebble layer, and the soil among the stones included pebbles.  Most of the cairn stones were of the cobble type, rounded, and they included volcanic rock brought down by ice.  The stones left in situ were not quarried, but were of the type found on the surface during clearance.  Only one edge of the oval-shaped mound retained any kind of integrity.  There was no kerb of larger stones, but the periphery was made up of cobbles, with the exception of the large, rounded sandstone boulder the motifs of which originally faced inward.

Wide views can be obtained from the rock art locations.  However, in places the adjacent rising ground of the higher Whitsun Bank and Coldmartin areas prevents distant views.  The Cheviot and Fell Sandstone Hills distantly ring the site to the west, north and east with other rock art areas visible, such as Doddington Moor/Dod Law, Gled Law, Buttony and Horton areas, as well as the main Fell Sandstone Group arc.  The more elevated portions of this area overlook the Milfield Basin and River Till lowland areas.    There are no later prehistoric monuments in the immediate area, though a series of settlements is known nearby. Post Medieval activity has, however, taken place.  Much evidence of quarrying is present with many ?steps?, and sheer and sharp edges of remaining rock at the east of the ridge.

The fact that the motifs face into the mound and were not meant to be seen is important.  Even as a standing stone it is unlikely that its pattern would have faced north, for it was more likely to be viewed on the approach to the panels of rock art on the hill to the north.  The deliberate obscuring of uneroded motifs means that the motifs were a private and not a public gesture - not meant to be seen- and more concerned with the dead than the living.  They are different in concept from motifs in the landscape: it is as though they have been deliberately turned into the earth instead of facing the sky, and therefore more concerned with the dead than the living.  Even though the mound may not have been used either primarily or exclusively as a burial, it had an important ritual function in the landscape.  It does not lie among the markings on the hill, but stands on the edge of the concentration.    The placing of marked cobbles in a mound, a deliberate, calculated placement in the case of those turned face down, makes nonsense of the idea that they just happened to be a convenient building material lying around.  The cobbles had been selected for size, shape, and surface area, probably held on the lap, and chipped with a hard stone tool to produce cups and grooves.  All these pick marks are visible and uneroded, and some are marked on two sides.  Not all the motifs are completed, and it seems that the act of putting some basic symbols on the rocks was sufficient for the ritual purpose.    The presentation of the mound as an oval shape is largely conjectural, but it has the effect of allowing us to gather the loose stones together in one place, and of highlighting the position of the standing kerb stone.  It will also keep machinery clear of this stone.  Most of the marked cobbles are at Berwick Museum, but one was requested by the Science Museum, London.  One was left, sentimentally, on the mound.    This site, together with the one close by at Fowberry, has given us a new dimension on the use of rock art in monuments.  Mounds incorporating marked cobbles are very rare, but the discovery of similar cobbles in walls and field clearance heaps suggests that other destroyed mounds might have contained them.  When we excavated the massive cairn at Blawearie, we examined every cobble within the mound, and not one was marked. The reason why some mounds were chosen for this ritual is unknown.  One may put forward the idea that the marked cobbles were rather like wreaths at a funeral: that people made them and placed them in the burial mound.

1832,10011,"By chance, I (Stan Beckensall) was living nearby when the land around the Weetwood sites was bulldozed and cleared of heather and stone, ready for grass planting.  I had seen the low mound between the public path and the road, with a large stone projecting on the south side with two apparently natural cups on top.  The low mound, no higher than the large stone, oval in shape, had not been recorded, and had presumably gone unnoticed when permission was given for the field clearance to go ahead in May, 1982.    Boulders were removed from the area, and dumped beside the public footpath and at the edge of the outcrop hill, where some remain.  The mound was bulldozed, and the large stone lifted and dumped with other clearance, north of the footpath.  It was then that I saw the large stone, with its remarkable pattern of cup, concentric rings, and radial grooves.  The shallow hole from which it had been taken was just about visible in disturbed soil.  The farmer, David Murray, not only agreed to halt work at my (unofficial) request, but got his men to search the area for more decorated cobbles.  He also agreed to my excavating the site, and to its reinstatement after excavation.  He saved all the cobbles in a heap that had been removed from the site of the mound.    An examination of sparse documentation revealed that Canon Greenwell had investigated six possible burial cairns, two of which had cists with no bodies remaining.  These did not have precise locations, and only one is still visible, outside the area of rock art on the public footpath leading west from site 6.  I regarded the bulldozed site as a possible burial cairn, and set out my excavation grid in an area surrounded by recent ploughing.  Field walking in the disturbed ground did not produce any flints or other artefacts.    About three-quarters of the mound had been bulldozed away, and what was left was carefully trowelled to base.  At the same time, marked cobbles were being recovered and saved.      A team of eight people was involved in the excavation and recording.  Every stone left at base level in situ was recorded, and the area carefully examined for evidence of burial (a cist pit, for example).  There were no signs of burial.    The natural base of the field had a compact pebble layer, and the soil among the stones included pebbles.  Most of the cairn stones were of the cobble type, rounded, and they included volcanic rock brought down by ice.  The stones left in situ were not quarried, but were of the type found on the surface during clearance.  Only one edge of the oval-shaped mound retained any kind of integrity.  There was no kerb of larger stones, but the periphery was made up of cobbles, with the exception of the large, rounded sandstone boulder the motifs of which originally faced inward.  Its base was flat and had been sunk in a shallow hole, its flat base giving it sufficient stability to stand upright.    The drawing shows the disposition of the undisturbed stones in the mound, but there was nothing more to report other than the extraordinary number of marked cobbles found in the mound's structure.  21 were found in situ, mostly face-down.

The drawing shows the disposition of the undisturbed stones in the mound, but there was nothing more to report other than the extraordinary number of marked cobbles found in the mound's structure.  21 were found in situ, mostly face-down.  I had found 4 in the spoil heaps before the excavation began, and the rest of the 'loose' marked stones were picked up by the farmers.  All the marked stones were sandstones, and no markings were found on volcanic rocks.    It was impossible to distinguish between recent and ancient disturbance at the centre of the mound, and there was no sign of a cist pit.  Had the mound been built over a body, there would be no survival.  There was no evidence of cremated remains or burning.    The large marked boulder could have been on the site as a standing stone, and the oval mound constructed with it as a kerb marker.  The fact that the motifs face into the mound and were not meant to be seen is important.  Even as a standing stone it is unlikely that its pattern would have faced north, for it was more likely to be viewed on the approach to the panels of rock art on the hill to the north.  The deliberate obscuring of uneroded motifs means that the motifs were a private and not a public gesture - not meant to be seen- and more concerned with the dead than the living.  They are different in concept from motifs in the landscape: it is as though they have been deliberately turned into the earth instead of facing the sky, and therefore more concerned with the dead than the living.  Even though the mound may not have been used either primarily or exclusively as a burial, it had an important ritual function in the landscape.  It does not lie among the markings on the hill, but stands on the edge of the concentration.    The placing of marked cobbles in a mound, a deliberate, calculated placement in the case of those turned face down, makes nonsense of the idea that they just happened to be a convenient building material lying around.  The cobbles had been selected for size, shape, and surface area, probably held on the lap, and chipped with a hard stone tool to produce cups and grooves.  All these pick marks are visible and uneroded, and some are marked on two sides.  Not all the motifs are completed, and it seems that the act of putting some basic symbols on the rocks was sufficient for the ritual purpose.    The presentation of the mound as an oval shape is largely conjectural, but it has the effect of allowing us to gather the loose stones together in one place, and of highlighting the position of the standing kerb stone.  It will also keep machinery clear of this stone.  Most of the marked cobbles are at Berwick Museum, but one was requested by the Science Museum, London.  One was left, sentimentally, on the mound.    This site, together with the one close by at Fowberry, has given us a new dimension on the use of rock art in monuments.  Mounds incorporating marked cobbles are very rare, but the discovery of similar cobbles in walls and field clearance heaps suggests that other destroyed mounds might have contained them.  When we excavated the massive cairn at Blawearie, we examined every cobble within the mound, and not one was marked. The reason why some mounds were chosen for this ritual is unknown.  One may put forward the idea that the marked cobbles were rather like wreaths at a funeral: that people made them and placed them in the burial mound.    Since the excavation and reinstatement of the mound there have been other finds of small marked cobbles in the area, one of which is at Fowberry Cottage."

1839,2,"This area extends from the flanks of Doddington Moor/Dod Law as moorland, arable and pasture farmland and plantations.  It is largely flat, ending with steep western and southern slopes down to the Till.  It is based on a low Fell Sandstone Group terrace, which occasionally outcrops in the western slopes.  There are craggy portions across the area with steep, localized, slopes.  Slopes to the east are generally gentler, extending eastwards to Buttony.    From the plateau edges wide views can be obtained in a variety of directions to the distant Cheviot Hills and other Fell Sandstone Group areas, and over and along the Till valley.  This includes some rock art areas, such as the north of Weetwood Moor and the main Chatton Park-Old Bewick ridge.  The crags and rising ground of Doddington Moor/Dod Law prevent an all-round view of distant areas.    The gentle slopes have allowed Post Medieval ploughing of the ground to be undertaken with disturbance and destruction of archaeological monuments.  A few monuments contemporary with the rock art panels of the Neolithic/Early Bronze Age have been recorded.  These include Cuddie?s Cave rock shelter on the western flanks of Gled Law from which rock art has been recorded, as well as barrows and cairns with grave goods and others which are possibly related to agricultural clearance.  These were discovered in the 19th century, as ploughing started on the flatter portions of the area.    The steep slopes have escaped the ploughing and a number of monuments have been recorded.  These enclosures and settlements are thought to date from the Bronze Age onwards, or the later prehistoric periods, remaining as earthworks.

1840,10011,"In an area where there are hundreds of mounds, three cup marked stones were found in them.    At Chatton Sandyfords there were five cups on a barrow stone; the barrow had three beaker inhumations and two cremations, one with an enlarged food vessel. The earliest beaker was dated to 1670 +/- BC and the second was close to this date. The third was inserted later, perhaps 1500BC. The cup marked sandstone was local, with five cups pecked on one face, and a small one broken through. It was found in a disturbed area and could have been associated with a cremation contained in an inverted enlarged food vessel that had been shattered by the disturbance. Adjacent to the cremation was a large limestone column with natural pitting that could have been a marker of some kind.    George Jobey (1968), the excavator, reports the five cups on one side and ?Five cups have been started on the second face but not completed.? As part of one of these cups lies on the very edge of one face it is likely that the stone had been broken from larger slab.     (Jobey G,AA4,46)"

1841,10006,"The stone is triangular. At the apex the point of a groove that echoes that of the triangle, the base of which has been fashioned into a curve, fits into the point. Inside the continuous groove is an arrangement of two singles cups each with a ring that touches at the bottom, and three cups placed in a triangular pattern above them. Outside is a cup. A groove from the bottom of the curved triangular groove runs down the rock, turns at right angles and meets a parallel groove from an oval that contains a cup at each end. There are smaller cups. Where the two parallel grooves of the two enclosures meet, the line continues and branches out to a small cup at either side.    There is a strong design element in this, governed by the shape of the rock (which may have been deliberately shaped for this purpose or have been found like that naturally). The main motifs fit inside it with a definite relationship and sense of space. A similar use of a triangular shape is seen at Baildon caravan site, Yorkshire."

The complex designs of cups, rings and grooves are spread out over most of the surface as though to use all the available space: though the main clusters of motifs are joined by long grooves across minimally worked areas of rock. Most of the cups (c. 20) are approximately 0.02 - 0.05 m across and 0.01 - 0.02 m deep. There are some smaller less well-formed cups (about 12) and a few areas of pecking.    The largest cup group of five (two of which are close together with single eroding rings) occupies the apex area of the triangle. The cups are up to 0.025 m deep but the rings are shallower, about 0.005 m. A sub-triangular groove of variable width and depth surrounds the group of five. Close to this there is another groove-enclosed lozenge shape occupying half of the middle zone of the rock. There are two widely spaced cups within this, one of them joined to a groove which runs almost parallel with the surrounding groove. Both these motifs are linked to other grooves and cup clusters by long, slightly curved grooves. Some of the cups are at the ends/beginnings of short, branching grooves, some are isolate and there is a cluster of four cups in one corner of the stone.

The rings have been chiselled out and are generally 0.005-0.01m deep and 0.02-0.03m apart.  An iron nodule is incorporated into the design between the second and third ring grooves.  Stone shows some evidence in handling (this is a large heavy ""portable"") and there is one fissure on one edge, which may well predate the working of the rock.      The remaining surface shows extensive pitting which has been interpreted as chisel marks.  Given the iron-rich nature of the rock, it is possible the pitting results in part from ancient weathering, long before selection as a cist cover.  The discovery of cist covers with cup and ring decoration led to suggestion of Bronze Age date.  Now thought that the art form started in Neolithic and continued into Bronze Age."

1850,2,"This extensive area of moorland, rough grazing and golf course is a prominent landscape feature of north Northumberland.  The area rises from undulating eastern slopes above West Horton to a plateau height of Dod Law, above steep scarp edges which in places, on the south and west, comprises blocky crags.  The main moor area is broadly divided into two by a stream running south to north.  This is a typical Fell Sandstone Group terrace with western crags and eastern dip-slope, draining in all directions, through established courses at the fringes, giving the appearance of an island of substantially higher ground.  Gled Law issues from the flanks of Doddington Moor.     From the plateau edges wide views can be obtained in a variety of directions,  to the distant Cheviot Hills and other Fell Sandstone Group areas, over the Till, Hetton Burn, Doddington Dene and other valleys. These views include many other rock art areas.    There is an extensive series of rock art panels across the area (in some cases called Dod Law), with a number of contemporary monuments.  Since the creation of the rock art, modifications to the landscape have taken place across the whole area, so the panels are a mixture of in situ and moved panels.      No Mesolithic presence has been recorded on this moor.  Monuments contemporary with the rock art carvings have been recorded from various locations: a stone circle, roughly central to the area and a pair of stones, possibly a stone setting, have been recorded,   The dating for both monuments is unconfirmed, their relationships with each other and with the  rock art are unknown. Several Bronze Age barrows and cairns were recorded in the 19th century, some definitively funerary monuments, others possibly clearance cairns. Bronze Age, Iron Age and Romano-British settlements, enclosures and hillforts have been recorded across the area.  It is unknown whether or not the rock art panels would have been visible in these periods but some panels are only metres away from these sites.      Recent field clearance is partially responsible for the movement and relocation of some rock art panels; many small clearance cairns have been noted, and where ploughed, finds of stone artefacts are recorded.

1854,10011,"Jim Nesbitt (pers. comm. 15 May  2004) reports that the rock was found at 'Emblesteads, Longframlington, near a public foot-path leading from Embleton to Little Canada 4 metres downstream of a foot-bridge crossing the Gate-Burn, near to where the Inner Burn, near to where the Inner Burn and Gate-Burn converge and lying close to the right bank in water at a depth of about 15-20cms?Although the stone was located in water when found, I don't think it was placed there deliberately as an offering. It is more likely that it was discarded into the burn in more recent times. The elliptic shape of the item does suggest it having been subject to considerable water flow and abrasion for a lengthy period. Yet the condition of the under-side, apparently un-worn, the clarity of the tool marks in the cup and the clean fracture and surface of the missing portion would suggest it having lain on that side for a very long time in open conditions. On it's removal from the burn it was obvious to me that there was an absence of lichen deposits on it's upper surface suggesting it had been submersed for some considerable time, however, since it has been exposed there does appear to be an indication of it re-appearing. It is remarkable fact however that when the stone is immersed , or wetted, it does appear to take on a very life-like appearance as if it was intended to be so to the viewer.'"

1855,10004,"In 1850 ploughing revealed a considerable number of graves east of Ford Westfield House. Twenty burials came to light.  The bodies had been burnt, and their remains and charcoal were placed in circular hollows scooped out of the natural (rock) and each covered with a stone.

From Greenwell's report we gather that neither of the two decorated stones was a cist cover, though George Tate describes them as such. The larger of the two marked stones (Fort Westfield b) has a curved edge and a flat edge, and the design of three rings around a cup, from which an incomplete groove emerges, fits the rock, suggesting that it was not outcrop rock onto which it was picked, but that the stone was chosen for the motifs. The figure has pick markings, without any attempt to smooth out the grooves, and the freshness of the motifs indicates that the cover had been placed over the cremation burials deliberately.

It comprises three shallow (0.005 m), clearly pecked rings around a very shallow cup, with none of the rings quite complete; an incomplete ridge breaks through them. The beginnings of a fourth ring is visible. There are other marks on the rock which could be worked motifs - grooves on both sides of the main motif ""link"" to rings. The pecking is clear and the grooves are very shallow and not smoothed out at all. In places, the rings are not very distinct - a less worked area, or flattish ridge breaks them at one point. There are several grooves leading from the motifs (outer rings) to the edges of the stone. There are a few ""bruise"" or scuff marks on the face of the stone."

1857,10011,"In February 1973 a group of students from Alnwick College of Education, based at the castle, had asked me to take them to see some rock art. Their main course disciplines were different. When we were about to leave the site after looking at the North Plantation rocks when light snow began to fall, Murray Chisholm, a music student, called us back as we went to the minibus. He had noticed a large cup on a rock among dead bracken. This turned out to be the most southerly of a series of rock motifs that covered a whole spine of outcrop rock.    With Lance Strother?s permission we returned, fully equipped, to see if any more rock art was hidden in the dead bracken; this proved to be so on the edges of the outcrop. A mound on the outcrop hinted at something else, so a 26m datum line was established along the length of the outcrop and trenches laid out parallel to it and at right angles. A careful systematic clearance of vegetation revealed piles of cobblestones on top, thinning out to the south. These were drawn and a pattern established where the mound was in the scatter. It had a double kerb and sat on top of the outcrop. The kerb was constructed by laying the two arcs of cobbles and packing the space between them with smaller stones. Cobbles were mostly used, but there was a small arc of pink igneous rock that had presumably been brought to the area originally by ice. A prominent feature of the inner kerb was an upright regular sandstone slab with two cups like eyes looking to the north.    As each cobblestone was cleaned as it emerged, some were found to have motifs pecked into them, mainly with simple cups but others more elaborately. There was sufficient of the mound intact to establish that it was not a field clearance heap, and that the motifs on the cobbles echoed those on the outcrop. The scale of this was unprecedented.    The northern part of the site was more confusing, and a large hollow with an edge of stone at first appeared to be an enclosure. It turned out to be a small quarry. The freestone here splits vertically and horizontally, producing good building blocks, until a floor is reached. This quarry could have removed decorated rock. There were many small slabs and cobbles of the type normally picked up during field clearance that may have been thrown to one side so the quarrymen could get at the good rock surface. They were in lines immediately at the western edge of the working. It is possible that other cairns were demolished in this clearing process. There was less disturbance to the south, though there had been trees there. The whole area is surrounded by magnificent old beech trees, and the planting of these would have caused disturbance. To the east is a large circular hollow that we investigated; it proved to be another of these quarries also seen on Weetwood Moor. The logic seemed to be to locate a good edge of freestone, then exploit it forward and sideways. It is possible to mistake such hollows as settlement sites; it is also possible to mistake limited rectangular stone extraction for a cist.    A profile cross-section of the site shows that there was a very thin layer of sand above the outcrop beneath the cobbles of the mound; in this was the only artefact: a sealed in worked flint that could be used as a scraper of knife and belong to the Neolithic-early Bronze Age period. There was no evidence of any time gap between the mound and the marking of the outcrop, and the thin sand was sterile. The stones of the mound and other scattered stones were from 10-40 cm long, mostly sandstone, with the odd volcanic erratic.     The most important feature of this site is the distribution of marked cobbles. Not only did they form part of the mound, but four kerbstones were cup marked and have been left buried in situ. The rest have been removed to the Museum of Antiquities except for Fowberry Excavation site - Cairn n, which is at Berwick Museum, and Fowberry Excavation site - Cairn r , which could not be relocated during the project.    The decoration on the removed cobbles  varies from simple cups to a complex cup-penannular-radiate design. This complex design was on a cobble found south of the projected south edge of the outer kerb ? unless the mound was longer along its north-south axis, which we don?t know because there was only a light scatter of stone there and more possibility that the outcrop had been cleared of any covering stone.

There was less disturbance to the south, though there had been trees there. The whole area is surrounded by magnificent old beech trees, and the planting of these would have caused disturbance. To the east is a large circular hollow that we investigated; it proved to be another of these quarries also seen on Weetwood Moor. The logic seemed to be to locate a good edge of freestone, then exploit it forward and sideways. It is possible to mistake such hollows as settlement sites; it is also possible to mistake limited rectangular stone extraction for a cist.    A profile cross-section of the site shows that there was a very thin layer of sand above the outcrop beneath the cobbles of the mound; in this was the only artefact: a sealed in worked flint that could be used as a scraper of knife and belong to the Neolithic-early Bronze Age period. There was no evidence of any time gap between the mound and the marking of the outcrop, and the thin sand was sterile. The stones of the mound and other scattered stones were from 10-40 cm long, mostly sandstone, with the odd volcanic erratic.     The most important feature of this site is the distribution of marked cobbles. Not only did they form part of the mound, but four kerbstones were cup marked and have been left buried in situ. The rest have been removed to the Museum of Antiquities except for Fowberry Excavation site - Cairn n, which is at Berwick Museum, and Fowberry Excavation site - Cairn r , which could not be relocated during the project.    The decoration on the removed cobbles  varies from simple cups to a complex cup-penannular-radiate design. This complex design was on a cobble found south of the projected south edge of the outer kerb ? unless the mound was longer along its north-south axis, which we don?t know because there was only a light scatter of stone there and more possibility that the outcrop had been cleared of any covering stone. For anyone trying to peck a cup into a cobble, the danger is that the rock will split with the force of the blow. It takes skill."

1861,10011,"In February 1973 a group of students from Alnwick College of Education, based at the castle, had asked me to take them to see some rock art. Their main course disciplines were different. When we were about to leave the site after looking at the North Plantation rocks when light snow began to fall, Murray Chisholm, a music student, called us back as we went to the minibus. He had noticed a large cup on a rock among dead bracken. This turned out to be the most southerly of a series of rock motifs that covered a whole spine of outcrop rock.    With Lance Strother?s permission we returned, fully equipped, to see if any more rock art was hidden in the dead bracken; this proved to be so on the edges of the outcrop. A mound on the outcrop hinted at something else, so a 26m datum line was established along the length of the outcrop and trenches laid out parallel to it and at right angles. A careful systematic clearance of vegetation revealed piles of cobblestones on top, thinning out to the south. These were drawn and a pattern established where the mound was in the scatter. It had a double kerb and sat on top of the outcrop. The kerb was constructed by laying the two arcs of cobbles and packing the space between them with smaller stones. Cobbles were mostly used, but there was a small arc of pink igneous rock that had presumably been brought to the area originally by ice. A prominent feature of the inner kerb was an upright regular sandstone slab with two cups like eyes looking to the north.    As each cobblestone was cleaned as it emerged, some were found to have motifs pecked into them, mainly with simple cups but others more elaborately. There was sufficient of the mound intact to establish that it was not a field clearance heap, and that the motifs on the cobbles echoed those on the outcrop. The scale of this was unprecedented.    The northern part of the site was more confusing, and a large hollow with an edge of stone at first appeared to be an enclosure. It turned out to be a small quarry.

Cobbles were mostly used, but there was a small arc of pink igneous rock that had presumably been brought to the area originally by ice. A prominent feature of the inner kerb was an upright regular sandstone slab with two cups like eyes looking to the north.    As each cobblestone was cleaned as it emerged, some were found to have motifs pecked into them, mainly with simple cups but others more elaborately. There was sufficient of the mound intact to establish that it was not a field clearance heap, and that the motifs on the cobbles echoed those on the outcrop. The scale of this was unprecedented.    The northern part of the site was more confusing, and a large hollow with an edge of stone at first appeared to be an enclosure. It turned out to be a small quarry. The freestone here splits vertically and horizontally, producing good building blocks, until a floor is reached. This quarry could have removed decorated rock. There were many small slabs and cobbles of the type normally picked up during field clearance that may have been thrown to one side so the quarrymen could get at the good rock surface. They were in lines immediately at the western edge of the working. It is possible that other cairns were demolished in this clearing process. There was less disturbance to the south, though there had been trees there. The whole area is surrounded by magnificent old beech trees, and the planting of these would have caused disturbance. To the east is a large circular hollow that we investigated; it proved to be another of these quarries also seen on Weetwood Moor. The logic seemed to be to locate a good edge of freestone, then exploit it forward and sideways. It is possible to mistake such hollows as settlement sites; it is also possible to mistake limited rectangular stone extraction for a cist.    A profile cross-section of the site shows that there was a very thin layer of sand above the outcrop beneath the cobbles of the mound; in this was the only artefact: a sealed in worked flint that could be used as a scraper of knife and belong to the Neolithic-early Bronze Age period. There was no evidence of any time gap between the mound and the marking of the outcrop, and the thin sand was sterile. The stones of the mound and other scattered stones were from 10-40 cm long, mostly sandstone, with the odd volcanic erratic.     The most important feature of this site is the distribution of marked cobbles. Not only did they form part of the mound, but four kerbstones were cup marked and have been left buried in situ. The rest have been removed to the Museum of Antiquities except for Fowberry Excavation site - Cairn n, which is at Berwick Museum, and Fowberry Excavation site - Cairn r , which could not be relocated during the project.    The decoration on the removed cobbles  varies from simple cups to a complex cup-penannular-radiate design. This complex design was on a cobble found south of the projected south edge of the outer kerb ? unless the mound was longer along its north-south axis, which we don?t know because there was only a light scatter of stone there and more possibility that the outcrop had been cleared of any covering stone. For anyone trying to peck a cup into a cobble, the danger is that the rock will split with the force of the blow. It takes skill."

1874,10011,"In February 1973 a group of students from Alnwick College of Education, based at the castle, had asked me to take them to see some rock art. Their main course disciplines were different. When we were about to leave the site after looking at the North Plantation rocks when light snow began to fall, Murray Chisholm, a music student, called us back as we went to the minibus. He had noticed a large cup on a rock among dead bracken. This turned out to be the most southerly of a series of rock motifs that covered a whole spine of outcrop rock.    With Lance Strother?s permission we returned, fully equipped, to see if any more rock art was hidden in the dead bracken; this proved to be so on the edges of the outcrop. A mound on the outcrop hinted at something else, so a 26m datum line was established along the length of the outcrop and trenches laid out parallel to it and at right angles. A careful systematic clearance of vegetation revealed piles of cobblestones on top, thinning out to the south. These were drawn and a pattern established where the mound was in the scatter. It had a double kerb and sat on top of the outcrop. The kerb was constructed by laying the two arcs of cobbles and packing the space between them with smaller stones. Cobbles were mostly used, but there was a small arc of pink igneous rock that had presumably been brought to the area originally by ice. A prominent feature of the inner kerb was an upright regular sandstone slab with two cups like eyes looking to the north.    As each cobblestone was cleaned as it emerged, some were found to have motifs pecked into them, mainly with simple cups but others more elaborately. There was sufficient of the mound intact to establish that it was not a field clearance heap, and that the motifs on the cobbles echoed those on the outcrop. The scale of this was unprecedented.    The northern part of the site was more confusing, and a large hollow with an edge of stone at first appeared to be an enclosure. It turned out to be a small quarry. The freestone here splits vertically and horizontally, producing good building blocks, until a floor is reached. This quarry could have removed decorated rock. There were many small slabs and cobbles of the type normally picked up during field clearance that may have been thrown to one side so the quarrymen could get at the good rock surface. They were in lines immediately at the western edge of the working. It is possible that other cairns were demolished in this clearing process. There was less disturbance to the south, though there had been trees there. The whole area is surrounded by magnificent old beech trees, and the planting of these would have caused disturbance. To the east is a large circular hollow that we investigated; it proved to be another of these quarries also seen on Weetwood Moor. The logic seemed to be to locate a good edge of freestone, then exploit it forward and sideways. It is possible to mistake such hollows as settlement sites; it is also possible to mistake limited rectangular stone extraction for a cist.    A profile cross-section of the site shows that there was a very thin layer of sand above the outcrop beneath the cobbles of the mound; in this was the only artefact: a sealed in worked flint that could be used as a scraper of knife and belong to the Neolithic-early Bronze Age period. There was no evidence of any time gap between the mound and the marking of the outcrop, and the thin sand was sterile. The stones of the mound and other scattered stones were from 10-40 cm long, mostly sandstone, with the odd volcanic erratic.     The most important feature of this site is the distribution of marked cobbles. Not only did they form part of the mound, but four kerbstones were cup marked and have been left buried in situ. The rest have been removed to the Museum of Antiquities except for Fowberry Excavation site - Cairn n, which is at Berwick Museum, and Fowberry Excavation site - Cairn r , which could not be relocated during the project.    The decoration on the removed cobbles  varies from simple cups to a complex cup-penannular-radiate design. This complex design was on a cobble found south of the projected south edge of the outer kerb ? unless the mound was longer along its north-south axis, which we don?t know because there was only a light scatter of stone there and more possibility that the outcrop had been cleared of any covering stone. For anyone trying to peck a cup into a cobble, the danger is that the rock will split with the force of the blow. It takes skill."

1876,2,"This area extends from the flanks of Doddington Moor/Dod Law as moorland, arable and pasture farmland and plantations.  It is largely flat, ending with steep western and southern slopes down to the Till.  It is based on a low Fell Sandstone Group terrace, which occasionally outcrops in the western slopes.  There are craggy portions across the area with steep, localized, slopes.  Slopes to the east are generally gentler, extending eastwards to Buttony.    From the plateau edges wide views can be obtained in a variety of directions to the distant Cheviot Hills and other Fell Sandstone Group areas, and over and along the Till valley.  This includes some rock art areas, such as the north of Weetwood Moor and the main Chatton Park-Old Bewick ridge.  The crags and rising ground of Doddington Moor/Dod Law prevent an all-round view of distant areas.    The gentle slopes have allowed Post Medieval ploughing of the ground to be undertaken with disturbance and destruction of archaeological monuments.  A few monuments contemporary with the rock art panels of the Neolithic/Early Bronze Age have been recorded.  These include Cuddie?s Cave rock shelter on the western flanks of Gled Law from which rock art has been recorded, as well as barrows and cairns with grave goods and others which are possibly related to agricultural clearance.  These were discovered in the 19th century, as ploughing started on the flatter portions of the area.    The steep slopes have escaped the ploughing and a number of monuments have been recorded.  These enclosures and settlements are thought to date from the Bronze Age onwards, or the later prehistoric periods, remaining as earthworks.  Ridge and furrow also survives in places with Post Medieval field banks."

Clive Waddington has published a [http://rockart.ncl.ac.uk/interactive/documents/outreach/Hunterheugh_BAarticle.pdf,short report] on the excavation in British Archaeology  (2004, vol 78), and together with Aron Mazel and Ben Johnson (2005, in press) has prepared a detailed report on the excavation that will be published in Archaeologia Aeliana.     Following a visit to Hunterheugh 1 after the excavation, Stan Beckensall prepared a short report on his observations. This report is presented below.     PREHISTORIC ROCK ART AT HUNTERHEUGH CRAGS    Stan Beckensall (April 2004)    1. Background exploration.    The first reference to rock markings at Hunterheugh is in the Northumberland County History, which says, ?There are indications of plain cups on the wide expanse of rocks near the top of the hill, but in the absence of rings or ducts there remains an element of doubt about them.? No precise location was given, and as the outcrop is extensive, this could refer to the excavated site or to an outcrop with cup marks to the NW by the public footpath to Eglingham.    Tim Gates? discovery during the survey for a gas pipeline survey of decorated rock among cairns to the north of the excavated site was unpublished. Paul Frodsham showed me a slide of this site, which led to my investigation, recording and publication of rock art on that northern hill site. Another site that I discovered has now been excavated. Only those parts protruding from stone and vegetation were drawn: the rest was left for excavation. My recording (Beckensall, 1995) included the Gates? discovery. New discoveries by the public footpath to the NW appeared in Beckensall (2001), but the whole rocks were not drawn ? only those parts with motifs. This followed some very significant discoveries on Beanley Moor to the north that have been recorded for the Archive.    The potential of the Hunterheugh 1 site for significant new information lay in its being decorated outcrop on which a cairn was built. This links it with sites such as Lordenshaw, Fowberry, The Ringses and Dod Law, where the same phenomenon occurs (Beckensall 2001). The relationship between decorated outcrop and a cairn is best seen at Fowberry, where a double kerbed cairn with cup-marked kerbs and more elaborate cup and ring marked cobbles was excavated on top of a long decorated outcrop. There was no sign of a burial there, and the only diagnostic find was a flint scraper sealed under the edge of the cairn stones. Hunterheugh 1 provided an opportunity for more information on the relationship between cairns and outcrop. There have been many marked stones found in cairnfields recently, some embedded in cairn structures, throughout Northumberland.    2. The making of motifs    Much of the decorated rock surfaces had been recorded before the excavation, but new panels and motifs emerged.    There are two distinct features: motifs that appear faint and warn by weathering, and pristine motifs that show clearly how they were made, with tool marks visible. Such features appear at all rock art sites.  The ?faintness? of a motif may be the result of erosion; ridges and grooves become smoothed by water action as a result of long exposure. For how long, we do not know. The other reason is that the motifs were pecked on only lightly ? tentative, unfinished sometimes.    The most important example in Northumberland of both erosion and fresh pecking is at North Plantation, Fowberry, where decorated outcrop incorporated into an Iron Age (?) enclosure has had a slab of its surface removed and a freshly-pecked motif made on the exposed base (Beckensall 2001). It has been suggested that such a removed slab might have been used as a cist slab or as a kerb.    ?Fresh? motifs exhibit all the stages of their making; it is possible to deduce what kinds of tools were used. At Hunterheugh 1, as well as at other sites, the tool appears to be either a punch like a blunt nail or a wider chisel-shaped edge. In some cases both types have been used on the same motif, or by one tool that could do both. As these presumably belong to a pre-metal age, we assume the tool to be made of a rock harder than the Fell Sandstone sheets of outcrop, such as whinstone, and to have been impacted with a mallet or used as a hand tool with a pad to protect the palm. There have been recent experiments to produce such effects. What is strange is that no tool has been found on a site, with the possible exception of Dod Law (Beckensall 2001), although this has an uncertain context.    Motifs were not added to the rock without consideration of the form of the rock itself, and often the natural configuration would determine the arrangements of the motifs. The most satisfying designs (to the modern eye) are those that use to the full the surface irregularities and slopes. Slope is particularly important, as grooves running from cups follow the rock downwards, and the spacing of motifs may take into account the natural divisions formed by cracks.    At Hunterheugh 1 there are two kinds of surface: a fairly continuous smooth, sloping area with few natural irregularities, and rather lumpy surfaces. There are also hollows used to counter-sink motifs    3. Description of the motifs    The most complex motifs are those to the east on a step in the rock, and they face east. No new ones other than cups and a cup and ring were found further east, and they were on a step down, part of the same section of outcrop. The cairn lay on the continuation of the north complex motif, and there were a few other minor cups and cups and rings to the immediate west. All these motifs are ?fresh?.    The two major motifs are distinctly different, although clearly arranged in the same direction, facing east in a slight flat hollow that today drains rain water from them. The southerly design has clear chisel-like and punched tool marks. At the centre is a cup towards which a radial groove runs but does not reach beyond the inner ring. The cup is the centre of two penannulars which are looped at their ends. A very thin groove from the cup reaches a bar running from one end of the inner penannular to the other, preventing the opening to the cup from being a complete ?keyhole? construction. The inner groove on the right runs further down the rock, and opposite to it some tooling has been placed to allow water to drain out of the motifs, left. An extra concentric outer arc was not meant to continue around the whole figure; it stops at a crudely-cut basin in which the chisel tool marks have cut into layered sedimentary rock. Outside this, left, are two cups, and above is a group of three. On the slightly raised rock to the west are three linked cups in a row and a pecked cup and ring,    The northern motif, although sharing some of these characteristics, is different. In the former, the tool marks are much more definite and heavy; here, although the serpentine grooves are a feature, they are made with a very fine pick, becoming fainter towards the north. A recessed cup and another cup form an asymmetric centre to a looped groove that encloses them, twisting to echo the linked penannulars of the first figure, but continuing fainter to loop around in a bisected circle with a faint cup.    The two motifs share sufficient characteristics to make it possible to assume that they were made at the same time, despite the contrast in picking techniques, and are aligned together. The north one has a made hollow in the same direction as the one to the south. On a slight rise there is a pristine pecked cup and ring and a cup. At a lower level on a step are two cups and a cup and ring.    The motifs are unusual and special even in a county that surprises by the variations that prehistoric people managed to get out of simple symbolism, but lie outside the cairn.     Further west on another level of rock is a deeply hacked motif discovered by excavation. It is a deep cup connected by an angular grove of the same depth to a cup with a thin ring around it. Its depth makes it stand out, on a north-south alignment, following the shape of the rock.    Also to the east on the north side is a roughly rectangular block that has much fainter, eroded cup and single ring motifs, those at the eastern edge in a line. Other small cup and single ring motifs appear on the same rock. These too were discovered by excavation. Why they should be fainter than the more complex motifs may be accounted for by their being on the outside of the cairn, and thus exposed.    Immediately west is a triangular shaped outcrop sandwiched between the cracks formed by lines of bedding, on which is a heavily-pecked cup and rings and a cup. There is some iron in the rock here, and the cutting of the motifs must have called for more strength and persistence. As all the pick marks are clear, it is possible that this part of the rock was covered over early in its history.    At the centre of the site is an already-recorded group of faint simple cup marks, with a deeper ?new? cup on its north edge.    The remaining decorated surfaces lie to the west. Most of these are recorded as rock 1a, b, and c. To the south a new series of motifs was excavated, all at a lower level than the others. In a long naturally sunken recess a cup surrounded by a pecked circle is the beginning of a heavily pecked, long groove like a stretched triangle. On either side the cup has two motifs of the cup and ring type, and other cups already drawn.     North of this, in the same alignment, is a panel of cups and linked cups already recorded (as 1b). A strong feature of this is the way the cups are clustered at the top of the rock, then linked like a necklace, running down the slope to link up with a cup and two concentric rings and a cup with a faint ring that is unfinished as an arc of small cups marks where the groove was planned to be.    The last area of rock to the north-west has been recorded at the top as 1e, with a packed cluster of cups. The newly exposed section on the slope to the north has cup and ring mark designs, some with grooves from the central cup, and all faint. The largest has a cup and two concentric rings.    4. Conclusion    The excavation has produced only a few additional cups and cup and ring marks, but this has completed the total picture of what is on the rock surfaces. My report, submitted with detailed drawings and photographs, has drawn attention to the fact that it is not possible to make any observations about chronology from the evidence of pristine and worn motifs, as erosion is bound to affect exposed rocks. It is up to the excavators to relate any other finds to a possible sequence of events. I am not confident from what I have seen at the site that this is going to be possible. Even the most preserved motifs are those not actually covered by the cairn, and their preservation will have to be accounted for by natural covering of, for example, wind-blown soil and vegetation.    Evidence of quarrying on the total mass of rock is ambiguous. Questions that I would ask are: what tools were available in Neolithic or early Bronze Age times (the possible age of the rock markings) to split rocks along their seams? The whole area has been re-used by generations after the rock art was put there, for there is a high concentration of enclosures for stock and for settlement, including a field wall that uses the outcrop and cairn as a guide.    The excavation is only a glimpse. More work will have to be done, for example on the cairns and rock art on the hill to the north and on the enclosures themselves to find some answers.    Drawing of enclosure marked rock    It is significant that the rock art extends into the Iron Age (?) enclosures themselves: a group of domino cups, similar to those on Chatton Park Hill and Dod Law have now been recorded among grooves that are partly natural and partly artificial enclosures. A considerable amount of stone has been quarried from the wider area to build stockades/enclosures, and one wonders whether the excavated rock may have provided some.    Our archive for rock art includes panels further to the east and to the north west. It now includes a panel on the outcrop edge of one enclosure to the west. It is possible that any future excavation that concentrates on the enclosures will find rock art that has been taken from elsewhere and used as building material or has been deliberately incorporated because it was recognised as a significant part of the past."

1878,2,"The panel was found within the Hunterheugh plateau of largely flat-topped moorland.  The edges of the plateau (extending northwards to be called Beanley Moor), are mainly steep slopes, with a series of crags of the Fell Sandstone Group.  The western flank of the plateau is a long gentle slope to the height of the terrace.  The plateau and most of the sloping ground is heather moor.    The site affords wide views.  The opposing and adjacent Midstead plateau and other more distant Fell Sandstone Group are seen as terraces and crags on the horizon to the south and west;  also visible are the Callaly/Thrunton Crags and Titlington Mount areas, over the Titlington Burn and adjacent lower land. This lower land is maintained as improved grassland retained as pasture and evergreen plantations.  Views into the plateau are limited by the flat-topped surface and small, localised crags.    A variety of archaeological remains have been recorded near the panels and plateau more generally, some of which may be contemporary with the rock carvings.  No Mesolithic finds have been recorded around the crags.  Nearby burnt mounds have been excavated by the Northumberland Archaeological Group and radiocarbon dated to the Neolithic/Earlier Bronze Age.   Other Bronze Age funerary and agricultural clearance monuments are also recorded in the area.  A large enclosed settlement of the Romano-British period lies at a western, craggy, edge of the main plateau and panels have also been recorded here. There are no Medieval or later remains present on this part of the plateau, and this may be an archaeological unspoilt rock art area."

The marks are like very small cups, about 0.005 m across, with a few pick marks in them - but no real pattern is discernible. The marked area extends from a very straight (trimmed or broken?) edge of the stone across an area of 0.12 m by 0.15 m. The rock is of very uniform thickness because it is composed of the material between two bedding planes."

Most of these are recorded as rock 1a, b, and c. To the south a new series of motifs was excavated, all at a lower level than the others. In a long naturally sunken recess a cup surrounded by a pecked circle is the beginning of a heavily pecked, long groove like a stretched triangle. On either side the cup has two motifs of the cup and ring type, and other cups already drawn.     North of this, in the same alignment, is a panel of cups and linked cups already recorded (as 1b). A strong feature of this is the way the cups are clustered at the top of the rock, then linked like a necklace, running down the slope to link up with a cup and two concentric rings and a cup with a faint ring that is unfinished as an arc of small cups marks where the groove was planned to be.    The last area of rock to the north-west has been recorded at the top as 1e, with a packed cluster of cups. The newly exposed section on the slope to the north has cup and ring mark designs, some with grooves from the central cup, and all faint. The largest has a cup and two concentric rings.    4. Conclusion    The excavation has produced only a few additional cups and cup and ring marks, but this has completed the total picture of what is on the rock surfaces. My report, submitted with detailed drawings and photographs, has drawn attention to the fact that it is not possible to make any observations about chronology from the evidence of pristine and worn motifs, as erosion is bound to affect exposed rocks. It is up to the excavators to relate any other finds to a possible sequence of events. I am not confident from what I have seen at the site that this is going to be possible. Even the most preserved motifs are those not actually covered by the cairn, and their preservation will have to be accounted for by natural covering of, for example, wind-blown soil and vegetation.    Evidence of quarrying on the total mass of rock is ambiguous. Questions that I would ask are: what tools were available in Neolithic or early Bronze Age times (the possible age of the rock markings) to split rocks along their seams? The whole area has been re-used by generations after the rock art was put there, for there is a high concentration of enclosures for stock and for settlement, including a field wall that uses the outcrop and cairn as a guide.    The excavation is only a glimpse. More work will have to be done, for example on the cairns and rock art on the hill to the north and on the enclosures themselves to find some answers.    Drawing of enclosure marked rock    It is significant that the rock art extends into the Iron Age (?) enclosures themselves: a group of domino cups, similar to those on Chatton Park Hill and Dod Law have now been recorded among grooves that are partly natural and partly artificial enclosures. A considerable amount of stone has been quarried from the wider area to build stockades/enclosures, and one wonders whether the excavated rock may have provided some.    Our archive for rock art includes panels further to the east and to the north west. It now includes a panel on the outcrop edge of one enclosure to the west. It is possible that any future excavation that concentrates on the enclosures will find rock art that has been taken from elsewhere and used as building material or has been deliberately incorporated because it was recognised as a significant part of the past."

Clive Waddington has published a [http://rockart.ncl.ac.uk/interactive/documents/outreach/Hunterheugh_BAarticle.pdf,short report] on the excavation in British Archaeology  (2004, vol 78), and together with Aron Mazel and Ben Johnson (2005, in press) has prepared a detailed report on the excavation that will be published in Archaeologia Aeliana.     Following a visit to Hunterheugh 1 after the excavation, Stan Beckensall prepared a short report on his observations. This report is presented below.     PREHISTORIC ROCK ART AT HUNTERHEUGH CRAGS    Stan Beckensall (April 2004)    1. Background exploration.    The first reference to rock markings at Hunterheugh is in the Northumberland County History, which says, ?There are indications of plain cups on the wide expanse of rocks near the top of the hill, but in the absence of rings or ducts there remains an element of doubt about them.? No precise location was given, and as the outcrop is extensive, this could refer to the excavated site or to an outcrop with cup marks to the NW by the public footpath to Eglingham.    Tim Gates? discovery during the survey for a gas pipeline survey of decorated rock among cairns to the north of the excavated site was unpublished. Paul Frodsham showed me a slide of this site, which led to my investigation, recording and publication of rock art on that northern hill site. Another site that I discovered has now been excavated. Only those parts protruding from stone and vegetation were drawn: the rest was left for excavation. My recording (Beckensall, 1995) included the Gates? discovery. New discoveries by the public footpath to the NW appeared in Beckensall (2001), but the whole rocks were not drawn ? only those parts with motifs. This followed some very significant discoveries on Beanley Moor to the north that have been recorded for the Archive.    The potential of the Hunterheugh 1 site for significant new information lay in its being decorated outcrop on which a cairn was built. This links it with sites such as Lordenshaw, Fowberry, The Ringses and Dod Law, where the same phenomenon occurs (Beckensall 2001). The relationship between decorated outcrop and a cairn is best seen at Fowberry, where a double kerbed cairn with cup-marked kerbs and more elaborate cup and ring marked cobbles was excavated on top of a long decorated outcrop. There was no sign of a burial there, and the only diagnostic find was a flint scraper sealed under the edge of the cairn stones. Hunterheugh 1 provided an opportunity for more information on the relationship between cairns and outcrop. There have been many marked stones found in cairnfields recently, some embedded in cairn structures, throughout Northumberland.    2. The making of motifs    Much of the decorated rock surfaces had been recorded before the excavation, but new panels and motifs emerged.    There are two distinct features: motifs that appear faint and warn by weathering, and pristine motifs that show clearly how they were made, with tool marks visible. Such features appear at all rock art sites.  The ?faintness? of a motif may be the result of erosion; ridges and grooves become smoothed by water action as a result of long exposure. For how long, we do not know. The other reason is that the motifs were pecked on only lightly ? tentative, unfinished sometimes.    The most important example in Northumberland of both erosion and fresh pecking is at North Plantation, Fowberry, where decorated outcrop incorporated into an Iron Age (?) enclosure has had a slab of its surface removed and a freshly-pecked motif made on the exposed base (Beckensall 2001). It has been suggested that such a removed slab might have been used as a cist slab or as a kerb.    ?Fresh? motifs exhibit all the stages of their making; it is possible to deduce what kinds of tools were used. At Hunterheugh 1, as well as at other sites, the tool appears to be either a punch like a blunt nail or a wider chisel-shaped edge. In some cases both types have been used on the same motif, or by one tool that could do both. As these presumably belong to a pre-metal age, we assume the tool to be made of a rock harder than the Fell Sandstone sheets of outcrop, such as whinstone, and to have been impacted with a mallet or used as a hand tool with a pad to protect the palm. There have been recent experiments to produce such effects. What is strange is that no tool has been found on a site, with the possible exception of Dod Law (Beckensall 2001), although this has an uncertain context.    Motifs were not added to the rock without consideration of the form of the rock itself, and often the natural configuration would determine the arrangements of the motifs. The most satisfying designs (to the modern eye) are those that use to the full the surface irregularities and slopes. Slope is particularly important, as grooves running from cups follow the rock downwards, and the spacing of motifs may take into account the natural divisions formed by cracks.    At Hunterheugh 1 there are two kinds of surface: a fairly continuous smooth, sloping area with few natural irregularities, and rather lumpy surfaces. There are also hollows used to counter-sink motifs    3. Description of the motifs    The most complex motifs are those to the east on a step in the rock, and they face east. No new ones other than cups and a cup and ring were found further east, and they were on a step down, part of the same section of outcrop. The cairn lay on the continuation of the north complex motif, and there were a few other minor cups and cups and rings to the immediate west. All these motifs are ?fresh?.    The two major motifs are distinctly different, although clearly arranged in the same direction, facing east in a slight flat hollow that today drains rain water from them. The southerly design has clear chisel-like and punched tool marks. At the centre is a cup towards which a radial groove runs but does not reach beyond the inner ring. The cup is the centre of two penannulars which are looped at their ends. A very thin groove from the cup reaches a bar running from one end of the inner penannular to the other, preventing the opening to the cup from being a complete ?keyhole? construction. The inner groove on the right runs further down the rock, and opposite to it some tooling has been placed to allow water to drain out of the motifs, left. An extra concentric outer arc was not meant to continue around the whole figure; it stops at a crudely-cut basin in which the chisel tool marks have cut into layered sedimentary rock. Outside this, left, are two cups, and above is a group of three. On the slightly raised rock to the west are three linked cups in a row and a pecked cup and ring,    The northern motif, although sharing some of these characteristics, is different. In the former, the tool marks are much more definite and heavy; here, although the serpentine grooves are a feature, they are made with a very fine pick, becoming fainter towards the north. A recessed cup and another cup form an asymmetric centre to a looped groove that encloses them, twisting to echo the linked penannulars of the first figure, but continuing fainter to loop around in a bisected circle with a faint cup.    The two motifs share sufficient characteristics to make it possible to assume that they were made at the same time, despite the contrast in picking techniques, and are aligned together. The north one has a made hollow in the same direction as the one to the south. On a slight rise there is a pristine pecked cup and ring and a cup. At a lower level on a step are two cups and a cup and ring.    The motifs are unusual and special even in a county that surprises by the variations that prehistoric people managed to get out of simple symbolism, but lie outside the cairn.     Further west on another level of rock is a deeply hacked motif discovered by excavation. It is a deep cup connected by an angular grove of the same depth to a cup with a thin ring around it. Its depth makes it stand out, on a north-south alignment, following the shape of the rock.    Also to the east on the north side is a roughly rectangular block that has much fainter, eroded cup and single ring motifs, those at the eastern edge in a line. Other small cup and single ring motifs appear on the same rock. These too were discovered by excavation. Why they should be fainter than the more complex motifs may be accounted for by their being on the outside of the cairn, and thus exposed.    Immediately west is a triangular shaped outcrop sandwiched between the cracks formed by lines of bedding, on which is a heavily-pecked cup and rings and a cup. There is some iron in the rock here, and the cutting of the motifs must have called for more strength and persistence. As all the pick marks are clear, it is possible that this part of the rock was covered over early in its history.    At the centre of the site is an already-recorded group of faint simple cup marks, with a deeper ?new? cup on its north edge.    The remaining decorated surfaces lie to the west. Most of these are recorded as rock 1a, b, and c. To the south a new series of motifs was excavated, all at a lower level than the others. In a long naturally sunken recess a cup surrounded by a pecked circle is the beginning of a heavily pecked, long groove like a stretched triangle.

A large enclosed settlement of the Romano-British period lies at a western, craggy, edge of the main plateau and panels have also been recorded here. There are no Medieval or later remains present on this part of the plateau, and this may be an archaeological unspoilt rock art area."

1882,10011,"The rock was discovered in the cairn material with the cup mark facing outwards.    Hunterheugh 1 was excavated by Clive Waddington together with Aron Mazel and Ben Johnson in March and April 2004. Clive Waddington has published a [http://rockart.ncl.ac.uk/interactive/documents/outreach/Hunterheugh_BAarticle.pdf,short report] on the excavation in British Archaeology  (2004, vol 78), and together with Aron Mazel and Ben Johnson (2005, in press) has prepared a detailed report on the excavation that will be published in Archaeologia Aeliana.     Following a visit to Hunterheugh 1 after the excavation, Stan Beckensall prepared a short report on his observations. This report is presented below.     PREHISTORIC ROCK ART AT HUNTERHEUGH CRAGS    Stan Beckensall (April 2004)    1. Background exploration.    The first reference to rock markings at Hunterheugh is in the Northumberland County History, which says, ?There are indications of plain cups on the wide expanse of rocks near the top of the hill, but in the absence of rings or ducts there remains an element of doubt about them.? No precise location was given, and as the outcrop is extensive, this could refer to the excavated site or to an outcrop with cup marks to the NW by the public footpath to Eglingham.    Tim Gates? discovery during the survey for a gas pipeline survey of decorated rock among cairns to the north of the excavated site was unpublished. Paul Frodsham showed me a slide of this site, which led to my investigation, recording and publication of rock art on that northern hill site. Another site that I discovered has now been excavated. Only those parts protruding from stone and vegetation were drawn: the rest was left for excavation. My recording (Beckensall, 1995) included the Gates? discovery. New discoveries by the public footpath to the NW appeared in Beckensall (2001), but the whole rocks were not drawn ? only those parts with motifs. This followed some very significant discoveries on Beanley Moor to the north that have been recorded for the Archive.    The potential of the Hunterheugh 1 site for significant new information lay in its being decorated outcrop on which a cairn was built. This links it with sites such as Lordenshaw, Fowberry, The Ringses and Dod Law, where the same phenomenon occurs (Beckensall 2001). The relationship between decorated outcrop and a cairn is best seen at Fowberry, where a double kerbed cairn with cup-marked kerbs and more elaborate cup and ring marked cobbles was excavated on top of a long decorated outcrop. There was no sign of a burial there, and the only diagnostic find was a flint scraper sealed under the edge of the cairn stones. Hunterheugh 1 provided an opportunity for more information on the relationship between cairns and outcrop. There have been many marked stones found in cairnfields recently, some embedded in cairn structures, throughout Northumberland.    2. The making of motifs    Much of the decorated rock surfaces had been recorded before the excavation, but new panels and motifs emerged.    There are two distinct features: motifs that appear faint and warn by weathering, and pristine motifs that show clearly how they were made, with tool marks visible. Such features appear at all rock art sites.  The ?faintness? of a motif may be the result of erosion; ridges and grooves become smoothed by water action as a result of long exposure. For how long, we do not know. The other reason is that the motifs were pecked on only lightly ? tentative, unfinished sometimes.    The most important example in Northumberland of both erosion and fresh pecking is at North Plantation, Fowberry, where decorated outcrop incorporated into an Iron Age (?) enclosure has had a slab of its surface removed and a freshly-pecked motif made on the exposed base (Beckensall 2001). It has been suggested that such a removed slab might have been used as a cist slab or as a kerb.    ?Fresh? motifs exhibit all the stages of their making; it is possible to deduce what kinds of tools were used. At Hunterheugh 1, as well as at other sites, the tool appears to be either a punch like a blunt nail or a wider chisel-shaped edge. In some cases both types have been used on the same motif, or by one tool that could do both. As these presumably belong to a pre-metal age, we assume the tool to be made of a rock harder than the Fell Sandstone sheets of outcrop, such as whinstone, and to have been impacted with a mallet or used as a hand tool with a pad to protect the palm. There have been recent experiments to produce such effects. What is strange is that no tool has been found on a site, with the possible exception of Dod Law (Beckensall 2001), although this has an uncertain context.    Motifs were not added to the rock without consideration of the form of the rock itself, and often the natural configuration would determine the arrangements of the motifs. The most satisfying designs (to the modern eye) are those that use to the full the surface irregularities and slopes. Slope is particularly important, as grooves running from cups follow the rock downwards, and the spacing of motifs may take into account the natural divisions formed by cracks.    At Hunterheugh 1 there are two kinds of surface: a fairly continuous smooth, sloping area with few natural irregularities, and rather lumpy surfaces. There are also hollows used to counter-sink motifs    3. Description of the motifs    The most complex motifs are those to the east on a step in the rock, and they face east. No new ones other than cups and a cup and ring were found further east, and they were on a step down, part of the same section of outcrop. The cairn lay on the continuation of the north complex motif, and there were a few other minor cups and cups and rings to the immediate west. All these motifs are ?fresh?.    The two major motifs are distinctly different, although clearly arranged in the same direction, facing east in a slight flat hollow that today drains rain water from them. The southerly design has clear chisel-like and punched tool marks. At the centre is a cup towards which a radial groove runs but does not reach beyond the inner ring. The cup is the centre of two penannulars which are looped at their ends. A very thin groove from the cup reaches a bar running from one end of the inner penannular to the other, preventing the opening to the cup from being a complete ?keyhole? construction. The inner groove on the right runs further down the rock, and opposite to it some tooling has been placed to allow water to drain out of the motifs, left. An extra concentric outer arc was not meant to continue around the whole figure; it stops at a crudely-cut basin in which the chisel tool marks have cut into layered sedimentary rock. Outside this, left, are two cups, and above is a group of three. On the slightly raised rock to the west are three linked cups in a row and a pecked cup and ring,    The northern motif, although sharing some of these characteristics, is different. In the former, the tool marks are much more definite and heavy; here, although the serpentine grooves are a feature, they are made with a very fine pick, becoming fainter towards the north. A recessed cup and another cup form an asymmetric centre to a looped groove that encloses them, twisting to echo the linked penannulars of the first figure, but continuing fainter to loop around in a bisected circle with a faint cup.    The two motifs share sufficient characteristics to make it possible to assume that they were made at the same time, despite the contrast in picking techniques, and are aligned together. The north one has a made hollow in the same direction as the one to the south. On a slight rise there is a pristine pecked cup and ring and a cup. At a lower level on a step are two cups and a cup and ring.    The motifs are unusual and special even in a county that surprises by the variations that prehistoric people managed to get out of simple symbolism, but lie outside the cairn.     Further west on another level of rock is a deeply hacked motif discovered by excavation. It is a deep cup connected by an angular grove of the same depth to a cup with a thin ring around it. Its depth makes it stand out, on a north-south alignment, following the shape of the rock.    Also to the east on the north side is a roughly rectangular block that has much fainter, eroded cup and single ring motifs, those at the eastern edge in a line. Other small cup and single ring motifs appear on the same rock. These too were discovered by excavation. Why they should be fainter than the more complex motifs may be accounted for by their being on the outside of the cairn, and thus exposed.    Immediately west is a triangular shaped outcrop sandwiched between the cracks formed by lines of bedding, on which is a heavily-pecked cup and rings and a cup. There is some iron in the rock here, and the cutting of the motifs must have called for more strength and persistence. As all the pick marks are clear, it is possible that this part of the rock was covered over early in its history.    At the centre of the site is an already-recorded group of faint simple cup marks, with a deeper ?new? cup on its north edge.    The remaining decorated surfaces lie to the west. Most of these are recorded as rock 1a, b, and c. To the south a new series of motifs was excavated, all at a lower level than the others. In a long naturally sunken recess a cup surrounded by a pecked circle is the beginning of a heavily pecked, long groove like a stretched triangle. On either side the cup has two motifs of the cup and ring type, and other cups already drawn.     North of this, in the same alignment, is a panel of cups and linked cups already recorded (as 1b). A strong feature of this is the way the cups are clustered at the top of the rock, then linked like a necklace, running down the slope to link up with a cup and two concentric rings and a cup with a faint ring that is unfinished as an arc of small cups marks where the groove was planned to be.    The last area of rock to the north-west has been recorded at the top as 1e, with a packed cluster of cups. The newly exposed section on the slope to the north has cup and ring mark designs, some with grooves from the central cup, and all faint. The largest has a cup and two concentric rings.    4. Conclusion    The excavation has produced only a few additional cups and cup and ring marks, but this has completed the total picture of what is on the rock surfaces. My report, submitted with detailed drawings and photographs, has drawn attention to the fact that it is not possible to make any observations about chronology from the evidence of pristine and worn motifs, as erosion is bound to affect exposed rocks. It is up to the excavators to relate any other finds to a possible sequence of events. I am not confident from what I have seen at the site that this is going to be possible. Even the most preserved motifs are those not actually covered by the cairn, and their preservation will have to be accounted for by natural covering of, for example, wind-blown soil and vegetation.    Evidence of quarrying on the total mass of rock is ambiguous. Questions that I would ask are: what tools were available in Neolithic or early Bronze Age times (the possible age of the rock markings) to split rocks along their seams? The whole area has been re-used by generations after the rock art was put there, for there is a high concentration of enclosures for stock and for settlement, including a field wall that uses the outcrop and cairn as a guide.    The excavation is only a glimpse. More work will have to be done, for example on the cairns and rock art on the hill to the north and on the enclosures themselves to find some answers.    Drawing of enclosure marked rock    It is significant that the rock art extends into the Iron Age (?) enclosures themselves: a group of domino cups, similar to those on Chatton Park Hill and Dod Law have now been recorded among grooves that are partly natural and partly artificial enclosures. A considerable amount of stone has been quarried from the wider area to build stockades/enclosures, and one wonders whether the excavated rock may have provided some.    Our archive for rock art includes panels further to the east and to the north west. It now includes a panel on the outcrop edge of one enclosure to the west. It is possible that any future excavation that concentrates on the enclosures will find rock art that has been taken from elsewhere and used as building material or has been deliberately incorporated because it was recognised as a significant part of the past."
1882,10021,"This panel might not be on display, in which case prior arrangements will have to be made with the museum to view it."
1882,2,"The panel was found within the Hunterheugh plateau of largely flat-topped moorland.  The edges of the plateau (extending northwards to be called Beanley Moor), are mainly steep slopes, with a series of crags of the Fell Sandstone Group.  The western flank of the plateau is a long gentle slope to the height of the terrace.  The plateau and most of the sloping ground is heather moor.    The site affords wide views.  The opposing and adjacent Midstead plateau and other more distant Fell Sandstone Group are seen as terraces and crags on the horizon to the south and west;  also visible are the Callaly/Thrunton Crags and Titlington Mount areas, over the Titlington Burn and adjacent lower land. This lower land is maintained as improved grassland retained as pasture and evergreen plantations.  Views into the plateau are limited by the flat-topped surface and small, localised crags.    A variety of archaeological remains have been recorded near the panels and plateau more generally, some of which may be contemporary with the rock carvings.  No Mesolithic finds have been recorded around the crags.  Nearby burnt mounds have been excavated by the Northumberland Archaeological Group and radiocarbon dated to the Neolithic/Earlier Bronze Age.   Other Bronze Age funerary and agricultural clearance monuments are also recorded in the area.  A large enclosed settlement of the Romano-British period lies at a western, craggy, edge of the main plateau and panels have also been recorded here. There are no Medieval or later remains present on this part of the plateau, and this may be an archaeological unspoilt rock art area."

The horned spiral is similar to one at Achnabreck in Argyll. There are also serpentine grooves that curl up on themselves. On the side of the block are three concentric rings with no cup at the centre and an attached ring."
1883,10011,"The most important site is of a burial at Lilburn Hill Farm. In 1885 James Moffat of Lilburn Cottage wrote about it (AA ii Vol 10) in some detail, but the picture he gives us is somewhat confusing. Some men broke up a large stone while a field was being prepared for turnips. Bones appeared. Mr Moffat found fragments of stone lying around; he says that the grave had been opened to a depth of 16in, leaving 2 in of soil above the top deposit of bones. (But where did the scattered bone come from?). The grave was 9ft 2in from north to south. A trench had been dug 20in wide on each side of the bones, leaving a section with deposits in it. He trowelled this and discovered that there were cremation burials in two of the pits, one above the other as follows:    1.	There were seven shallow depressions with three small whinstones (dolerite) over each, allowing for a half inch of soil. There was evidence of cremations, with teeth and bits of jaw.    2.	After the removal of this layer, four to five inches lower was a row of five circular depressions, rather larger than those above. Four had three small whinstones over them, and the largest pit at the north end had five. There was evidence of cremation, but the bones found here seemed larger.    It is quite likely that the pit, with its multiple burials, was Neolithic rather than early Bronze Age. It is also likely that it would have been capped by a long mound. It is characteristic of a long barrow site; not on the hilltop, but visible from lower ground over a great distance.    The stones (Lilburn burial a and b) that came from the pit burial are at Museum of Antiquities.    Mr Moffat explains:    Mr Tait (the tenant farmer) informed me that the stone with the marking on it found at the west side of the south end of the line of pits was a thick massive stone, shaped like the apex of a pyramid, and carved on each side but one, which had suffered partial demolition at some previous period.    It appears, then, that the stone  (Lilburn a) might have been broken before it was put into the pit, assuming that the workmen had not damaged it. The drawing shows it resting on the base of a triangle, on which is a cup with three concentric arcs. As the edge is broken off, could the arcs once have been concentric s circles? Spiral and curvilinear design on the rest of the rock make it unique in Northumberland burials, but there are spirals on the cliffs at Morwick. The horned spiral is similar to one at Achnabreck in Argyll. There are also serpentine grooves that curl up on themselves. On the side of the block are three concentric rings with no cup at the centre and an attached ring.    It is difficult to see how the other piece of rock (Lilburn burial b) fits in with the rest, but it was certainly recorded as part of the pit deposit: the fragment has had part of its decoration broken off; the main motif is a ring around a boss and six concentric rings that are more incised than pecked. Four similarly concentric arcs, cut off, join the outer ring, moving in a different direction.    This type of motif is not usual in Northumberland, where the centre of arcs and rings are normally cupped. In Langdale, however, at a recently-recorded massive block of rock marked on its vertical face, an unmarked centre is common. Could it be a Neolithic motif rather than a later one, or just a variation on the same theme?"
1883,10021,"This panel might not be on display, in which case prior arrangements will have to be made with the museum to view it."
1883,2,"This panel, discovered during19th century agricultural improvement, was found in a large rectangular stone grave.  Two levels of cremated bones in small circular pits, each stone-capped were found; one set apparently above the other, possibly from two episodes of interment, though perhaps not widely separated by time.  The grave size suggests a Neolithic date, since it is substantially larger than average Bronze Age burial cists.  However, Bronze Age cists and graves often have several episodes of interment, whilst in the Neolithic, inhumation is more common.  It is unclear if there was an earthen or stone mound covering the grave.     The panel was found on Lilburn Hill Farm, at NU 01832 2476, part of the Weetwood/Fowberry/Trickley block of land.  The area is largely cleared, improved, grassland with extensive plantations.  Views from the site include the undulating ground, the Lilburn Burn and River Till valleys, with the Cheviot and much of the Fell Sandstone Group Hills; the latter includes generally visible areas of rock art.    Apart from the very monument in which the panel was discovered, there are few nearby records of sites and finds contemporary with this site other than further rock art panels (to the northeast near Trickley and Fowberry Moor).  The few that there are include funerary cists from Lilburn Tower and West Lilburn Farms of Early Bronze Age date, or possibly also later."

One face of the rock has double ringed motif.  Neither of the multi-ringed designs has a cup at the centre.  There are deep peck marks but no large cups on this rock.  Some areas have been chipped away to leave surfaces/shapes below the general level other than grooves."

On reverse side there is a much smaller hole about 0.02 m wide - looks as though it was drilled into the rock."
1895,10006,A minimum of seven cups.
1895,10011,This carved rock is part of the Society of Antiquaries collection.    Most of the carved rocks in the Museum of Antiquities (University of Newcastle upon Tyne) come from Northumberland and it is therefore likely that this carved rock also comes from Northumberland.
1895,1,Coarse grit stone with very knobbly surfaces with cups of variable size. Largest and deepest cup dimensions 0.05 m by 0.07 m by 0.07 m.  Another is 0.03 m deep by 0.06 m by 0.06 m and the shallowest are only 0.05 m deep. There are no pick marks visible (rock is a grit-coarse) and the edges of the cups are not very distinct as they merge into the ridges of the surface. The surface is generally dark but has paler 'bruise' or scuff marks in places. It would seem to have been much eroded as there are apparently carvings broken by the edge of the boulder. It is possible that the rock is not very firmly cemented relative to finer more evenly grained stone - though the grains don't rub off the surface. Quartz vein is reasonably prominent and would have been more so before weathering of the surface.    Strongly marked surface opposite cup marked one. These appear to be plough marks. Some of the grooves are 0.01-0.02 m deep and some have a pronounced uneroded base.
1896,10006,"The stone has a 6cm deep cup, finely tooled and narrowing towards the bottom in a compact heavy sandstone block. There are pick marks around the cup, which are either mis--hits or the beginning of a ring."

1896,1,This cup is dramatic and unusual. It is conical with an over-deepened centre - a short groove - there is an extension of groove up the side of cup. Dimensions 0.09 m by 0.085 m by 0.06 m. Edge of cup very clear. Grooving rather than peck marks in cup. Small notch in base of cup. Prehistoric origin uncertain. Possibly machine worked?
1897,10021,"This panel might not be on display, in which case prior arrangements will have to be made with the museum to view it."
1897,1,"A sandstone slab with very well-made cup marks and grooves.  The carving has not been damaged by weathering, suggesting the stone was buried soon after being worked.  There are four cups linked into a trapezoid shape by grooves and a fifth cup lies at the end of a short groove extending from one corner of the main motif.  A sixth cup lies near the edge of the slab about 0.10 m from the nearest groove.  There are other fainter peck marks across the rock and possibly a couple of other incipient cups or grooves.  The peck marks in the cups and grooves are very clear.  The cups are all about 0.05 m across, but the depths vary from 0.025 m to 0.04 m.  The linking groove is mostly shallower than this, though it is very distinct and clear edged.  Each limb is more or less straight though one shows a slight curve compared with the others.  The rock surface left in the centre of the main motif forms a square shape with rounded corners.  Cups all about 0.05m across.  Depth varies as 0.025m, 0.03m, 0.035, 0.04m, 0.04m and 0.02m.  Channel is shallower."
1897,10006,"The design is an irregular trapezoid with a cup at each angle, and two cup marks are outside the figure but have no apparent relationship to it. The markings are well and deeply cut and in some places show the rough pick marks of the first operation of incision but are generally smoothed by grinding."
1897,10011,"When barrow 12 yards x 11 yards, 18 inches high (0.69 x 0.61x 0.43m) was excavated, two marked rocks were discovered.  The barrow had two cists, the primary oval one being dug into the base rock. The cist was empty. A secondary cist, very close by, rested on the base shale, and measured 2?3? x 2? x 17? deep (11x 10.06 x 0.46m). The floor was roughly paved. At the time it was reported:    Only the side and end stones of the cist remain, and on the centre of the inner face of the southern side stone is a fine cup mark 1? ? diameter and ??deep (0.013, 0.019m). This cup-marked is Ouston, Pike Hill b.     Three feet away from this disturbed cist lay what was probably the cist cover, described as an irregular heart--shaped rock 24? x 21? x 5? (0.61 x 0.53 x 0.13m). The design was:    an irregular trapezoid with a cup at each angle, and two cup marks are outside the figure but have no apparent relationship to it. The markings are well and deeply cut and in some places show the rough pick marks of the first operation of incision but are generally smoothed by grinding. This cup-marked rock is Ouston, Pike Hill a.    The description shows that the design on the cist cover was probably facing into the cist. What is on the stone does not quite tally with the description, for the pick marks show no signs of being smoothed. The motifs on this stone are clearly made to fit the shape and size of the stone. They are pristine, and therefore the rock has not been exposed to any erosion (i.e. it was buried). The location suggests that it was specifically made for the cist of an early Bronze Age burial. Because it does not have concentric circles this does not make the design ?simple?. There are four deeply pecked cups that form a square. They are linked by wide, pecked, straight grooves on three sides and the fourth b y a slightly curved groove. The interior of this motif appears as a square with rounded corners. In a Dod law context this would be an unusual design; a deep cup lies between a corner cup and the edge, with very faint pecking that may have been intended to link the two. There are pick marks between the central motif and the edge, including two faint cups. On the other side there is a long groove and a large cup, with more scattered faint pick marks. The quality of the pecking is outstanding."

Cup dimensions 0.085 m by 0.08 m by 0.05 m."
1899,10006,"The cup and ring has not been finished, for an arc of pick markings between the outer ring and the central cup may be the tentative beginnings of an inner circle or arc. It is a good candidate for a purpose--made decorated slab in a cist."
1899,10011,"Although there is nothing to be seen now on the ground, Tate, Greenwell and Bruce reported many stones associated with burials. These included cupped stones over cremations in a barrow and a cup and ring marked cist with a cremation urn. Some stones appear to have been lost, and their location is not precise; South Moor is mentioned.     a. Canon Greenwell wrote:  About 1820 a tumulus, formed of earth and stones, on the South Moor, near Black Heddon?was removed when three of four urns, containing burnt bones, were discovered each covered with a stone, having on the underside one of the circular markings. Only one of the stones remained, and Greenwell kept it.    In the Museum of Antiquities, University of Newcastle, there is a stone provenanced as Stamfordham and it may be the one excavated by Greenwell. This panel is also known as the Stanfordham Cist Cover.     This stone has sometimes been used as evidence for an eroded stone taken from an earlier context and then used to make an early Bronze Age cist. One needs to be cautious in coming to such a conclusion, for there is no sign that this has been taken from outcrop, and the cups and rings are certainly not eroded, as the pick markings are as clear as can be. The cup and ring has not been finished, for an arc of pick markings between the outer ring and the central cup may be the tentative beginnings of an inner circle or arc. It is a good candidate for a purpose--made decorated slab in a cist."
1899,1,"Several well marked cups on this fine grained rock with some smaller cups or pecked areas and a circular shaped groove which doesn't go right around the cup within it. The  cup marks are 0.01 - 0.03 m deep, 0.02 - 0.06 m diameter. One has a penannular ring within which there is an arc of smaller cups. A crack on the side of rock, etched out by weathering, and a nodule of iron-rich rock are possibly related.  The crack and nodule appear not to have been noted on Beckensall's drawing. Probably made for use in a cist."

1907,10011,"A small cup-marked cobble, which was split across its length  was found on the edge of an earth mound by a young visitor (Bryony) during a National Park walk, and is now at the Museum of Antiquities, University of Newcastle. Information provided by John Steele (NNP).    General introduction to Lordenshaw:    The sandstone promontory on which Lordenshaw stands is to the north east of the Simonside --Dove Crags range of hills.  Its north west and south east flanks drop respectively to Whitton Dean, a tributary of the Coquet and to a narrow glaciated valley overlooked to the east by another outlying sandstone hill that rises to the same height as Lordenshaw.  There is a rise to the hillfort from the south west, then the land slopes away to the north east, finger-like, to the Whitton Burn.    This raised, prominent extension of the Simonside Hills reaches 268m.OD, and is made up of outcrop Fell sandstone, with only a thin layer of acidic soil.  There are patches of bright orange soil thrown up by rabbits, and a dark grey soil elsewhere.    The whole area has archaeology of many different periods, one of the most recent and most significant being the clearance of much of the land to the east for ?improvement? for the growing of grain on a regular close-running rig and furrow system.  This must have destroyed some surface archaeology, and may have resulted in some of the stone heaps that could also be prehistoric burial mounds.    Prominent on the hilltop is a ?fort?, a ditched Iron Age enclosure that has been re-used as a Romano-British settlement.  The slope southwards to the modern road and car park has many field walls, some of cobble and soil construction, and others of vertically--set sandstones.  Some of these walls cross one another, and represent different episodes in the use of the land.    The oldest features belong to the late Neolithic period, represented by cup and ring marked rocks over a wide area.  The motifs vary from simple cups to more complex ringed cups and grooves, but there is a characteristic regional phenomenon of long grooves or channels that follow the slope of the outcrop sheets on the east side of the hill.    It is impossible to date outcrop markings, but in this area three possible early bronze age cairns have been built on marked outcrop rock, showing that the latter are either contemporary or earlier, and also showing that the sites were already of great importance in the landscape before the cairns were added.    All the marked rocks in situ are at prominent viewpoints, some commanding many miles of territory.  A few cupped rocks in the hillfort allow the possibility that some marked surfaces may have been destroyed during its construction, and the medieval Deer Park wall may account for others being broken up and reused.  Modern quarrying has certainly taken its toll, especially on the north west, where masses of freestone have been removed, leaving holes in the ground like bomb craters, and the main block of rock art (2c) bears every sign of the quarrying process.  Add to that a network of other walls, including those for sheilings (temporary herds? houses and gardens), and it is likely that we have lost a large proportion of rock art."

1907,10016,"The name 'Lordenshaw' (also Lordinshaw) is not clear in its origin, but may come from heavy  (Old French lourdin) ridge (Old English hou, which occurs as 'hoe', as in Prudhoe or Swinhoe, for example).  The other meaning of 'shaw' is a wood. If the first derivation is correct it means that the ridge was unproductive, for 'heavy' was used as a term of complaint."

1907,2,"This moorland and rough grazing area lies on Lordenshaw Hill?s western flanks, and comprises a series of terraces in the Fell Sandstone Group arc.  Occasional rock outcrops break the bracken- and heather-covered slopes.  At the highest terrace edge the ground falls away southeast and rises more gently to the northeast.  Rock art is found scattered across the slopes and near the terrace edges.  Several springs in these slopes flow to the Whitton Burn and Coquet Valleys, which have incised deep courses through the hills.    Many views can be obtained across the area. The flattened, much modified, top of Lordenshaw Hill is the highest immediate point, whilst further slopes and terraces of the Fell Sandstone Group rise to the Simonside ridge.  The views from all the rock art locations include much of the sandstone group?s arc and the northwest slopes to the Whitton Burn, and more distantly, across Coquetdale, the Cheviot Hills.  Views southeast from some of the rock art are blocked by the slopes and terrace edges, though the highest locations also have distant views this way.  Other rock art areas visible include Football Cairn, Chirnells Moor, West Hills and Westcliffe House. The North and East Lordenshaw rock art areas are only partially visible.    Several monuments that might be Neolithic or Early Bronze Age have been identified. These include cairns located on both of the terrace edges. Two are thought to be burial cairns, likely Bronze Age, being situated at the false crest of the hill a situation typical for these monuments.  One of these is directly associated with the Horseshoe Panel, using the panel almost as a kerbstone.    Other cairns might result from clearance of fields created on the terrace ?levels?.  It is possible, though unproved, that these may date to the first period of Bronze Age agricultural clearance in the area.  A small settlement of round houses and enclosure walls of Iron Age-Romano-British date has been recorded on Birky Hill, where rock art panels have also been recorded.  An encircling ditch  incorporating further rock art panels runs around the top of the Lordenshaw Hill.    A stonewall runs across the area from the second terrace area and down the northwestern slopes.  This also incorporates rock art panels.  The wall is recorded as the boundary of Rothbury Forest, attested in Medieval documents, and joined by a series of sod cast dykes running along and across the lower terrace edge.  These boundaries define areas of rigg and furrow ploughing, with further clearance cairns and, in part, also explain the distribution of the rock art.    Quarrying ( thought to be Medieval or later) has taken place along some of the upper terrace edge, removing much rock and, in places, parts of rock art panels. This has resulted in extraction hollows northeast of the main panel, sheer and sharp edges of stone, and loose small waste stones.  Tool marks can also be seen in some of the stone remaining."

1910,10011,"By chance, I (Stan Beckensall) was living nearby when the land around the Weetwood sites was bulldozed and cleared of heather and stone, ready for grass planting.  I had seen the low mound between the public path and the road, with a large stone projecting on the south side with two apparently natural cups on top.  The low mound, no higher than the large stone, oval in shape, had not been recorded, and had presumably gone unnoticed when permission was given for the field clearance to go ahead in May, 1982.    Boulders were removed from the area, and dumped beside the public footpath and at the edge of the outcrop hill, where some remain.  The mound was bulldozed, and the large stone lifted and dumped with other clearance, north of the footpath.  It was then that I saw the large stone, with its remarkable pattern of cup, concentric rings, and radial grooves.  The shallow hole from which it had been taken was just about visible in disturbed soil.  The farmer, David Murray, not only agreed to halt work at my (unofficial) request, but got his men to search the area for more decorated cobbles.  He also agreed to my excavating the site, and to its reinstatement after excavation.  He saved all the cobbles in a heap that had been removed from the site of the mound.    An examination of sparse documentation revealed that Canon Greenwell had investigated six possible burial cairns, two of which had cists with no bodies remaining.  These did not have precise locations, and only one is still visible, outside the area of rock art on the public footpath leading west from site 6.  I regarded the bulldozed site as a possible burial cairn, and set out my excavation grid in an area surrounded by recent ploughing.  Field walking in the disturbed ground did not produce any flints or other artefacts.    About three-quarters of the mound had been bulldozed away, and what was left was carefully trowelled to base.  At the same time, marked cobbles were being recovered and saved.      A team of eight people was involved in the excavation and recording.  Every stone left at base level in situ was recorded, and the area carefully examined for evidence of burial (a cist pit, for example).  There were no signs of burial.    The natural base of the field had a compact pebble layer, and the soil among the stones included pebbles.  Most of the cairn stones were of the cobble type, rounded, and they included volcanic rock brought down by ice.  The stones left in situ were not quarried, but were of the type found on the surface during clearance.  Only one edge of the oval-shaped mound retained any kind of integrity.  There was no kerb of larger stones, but the periphery was made up of cobbles, with the exception of the large, rounded sandstone boulder the motifs of which originally faced inward.  Its base was flat and had been sunk in a shallow hole, its flat base giving it sufficient stability to stand upright.    The drawing shows the disposition of the undisturbed stones in the mound, but there was nothing more to report other than the extraordinary number of marked cobbles found in the mound's structure.  21 were found in situ, mostly face-down.  I had found 4 in the spoil heaps before the excavation began, and the rest of the 'loose' marked stones were picked up by the farmers.  All the marked stones were sandstones, and no markings were found on volcanic rocks.    It was impossible to distinguish between recent and ancient disturbance at the centre of the mound, and there was no sign of a cist pit.  Had the mound been built over a body, there would be no survival.  There was no evidence of cremated remains or burning.    The large marked boulder could have been on the site as a standing stone, and the oval mound constructed with it as a kerb marker.  The fact that the motifs face into the mound and were not meant to be seen is important.  Even as a standing stone it is unlikely that its pattern would have faced north, for it was more likely to be viewed on the approach to the panels of rock art on the hill to the north.  The deliberate obscuring of uneroded motifs means that the motifs were a private and not a public gesture - not meant to be seen- and more concerned with the dead than the living.  They are different in concept from motifs in the landscape: it is as though they have been deliberately turned into the earth instead of facing the sky, and therefore more concerned with the dead than the living.  Even though the mound may not have been used either primarily or exclusively as a burial, it had an important ritual function in the landscape.  It does not lie among the markings on the hill, but stands on the edge of the concentration.    The placing of marked cobbles in a mound, a deliberate, calculated placement in the case of those turned face down, makes nonsense of the idea that they just happened to be a convenient building material lying around.  The cobbles had been selected for size, shape, and surface area, probably held on the lap, and chipped with a hard stone tool to produce cups and grooves.  All these pick marks are visible and uneroded, and some are marked on two sides.  Not all the motifs are completed, and it seems that the act of putting some basic symbols on the rocks was sufficient for the ritual purpose.    The presentation of the mound as an oval shape is largely conjectural, but it has the effect of allowing us to gather the loose stones together in one place, and of highlighting the position of the standing kerb stone.  It will also keep machinery clear of this stone.  Most of the marked cobbles are at Berwick Museum, but one was requested by the Science Museum, London.  One was left, sentimentally, on the mound.    This site, together with the one close by at Fowberry, has given us a new dimension on the use of rock art in monuments.  Mounds incorporating marked cobbles are very rare, but the discovery of similar cobbles in walls and field clearance heaps suggests that other destroyed mounds might have contained them.  When we excavated the massive cairn at Blawearie, we examined every cobble within the mound, and not one was marked. The reason why some mounds were chosen for this ritual is unknown.  One may put forward the idea that the marked cobbles were rather like wreaths at a funeral: that people made them and placed them in the burial mound.    Since the excavation and reinstatement of the mound there have been other finds of small marked cobbles in the area, one of which is at Fowberry Cottage."

1910,1,"The stone has a very level smooth top surface. Shallow cup in the centre measures 0.035 m by 0.03 m, 0.075 m (maximum) depth, with pecking visible in cup. Surrounding the cup there are peck marks which form an indistinct ring and the suggestion of a groove although not completely circular and in one area appears to have no depth, more an area of pecking. The peck marks are in a penannular shape, but more rectangular or polygonal than circular. Otherwise groove depth about 0.005 m, width approx. 0.01 m."

1912,2,"This is a large area west of the Millstone Burn.  The ground is on the edge of a low Fell Sandstone Group terrace with an east-west ridge of low crags and outcrops near the north.  The ground falls gently away northwards, through occasionally managed heather moorland, and to the south more gradually, as moor and rough, but formerly improved, grassland.  A number of streams, including the  Millstone Burn, are sharply incised through the ground with largely bracken-covered severe slopes where they occur.    The panels are located across this area on both sides of the ridgeline at various points on the two main slopes.  More elevated panels afford wide views in their respective directions: to the north of the ridge over the undulating lower Rimside Moor portions to distant Cheviot and Fell Sandstone Group hills.  The latter include other rock art areas, such as the Caller Crag, Titlington, Hunterheugh and Midstead plateaux amongst others.  The southern panels overlook much of the immediate valley, flatter land at the slope bases and indeed much of lowland southeastern Northumberland.  On the opposite side of the Millstone Burn, the Snook Bank rock art area can be seen.    Monuments contemporary with the rock art include cairns and settlement on Longframlington Common.  The recent (Post Medieval-Modern) agricultural improvement has created several clearance cairns and possibly some ridge and furrow.  North of the ridge the heather cover has largely obscured identification of any such monuments.  The later Roman and Turnpike roads pass across the area, demonstrating the ease of access across the flanks of Rimside Moor."

The panels are all at much at the same altitude above the stream, in pasture grassland grazed by cattle.    All panels enjoy views of the immediate valley, as well as beyond to the Hetton Burn and Fell Sandstone Group terraces.   Lengthy views can be obtained down the Till Valley as well towards the Aln-Coquet watershed portions of the Fell Sandstones, which includes other rock art areas, such as Chatton Park.  Eastern portions of Doddington Moor can be also seen, with the ground rising gently westwards.    There are no definite archaeological monuments contemporary with the rock art.  Fieldwork has identified a few possible later monuments nearby.   Quarrying, probably Post Medieval, is evident at and alongside the rock art panels, and the stone may have been used to build a long wall which divides the area. The wall hmay also incorporate a possible standing stone, likely Bronze Age.  An earth bank may be a relict of Post Medieval ploughing. Two small cairns have been recorded in the midst of the rock art series; they are of unknown type or date.    Extensive ploughing of the surroundings has led to clearance of stones, and it is unknown how much natural stone might have been removed.  The ground is now used for pasture but it is unknown what, if any, artefacts have been found or what monuments might have been destroyed."

2007,1,This is a portable-sized stone laid flush with the ground surface.  It is shaped like a boundary marker stone with three small single cup marks.  Each of these motifs is an elongated shape.    This panel was only partially recorded by NADRAP.
2008,1,"This is an almost rectangular-shaped piece of rock which has two possible single cup marks on one edge. Both are quite shallow, but are well-rounded in shape, and are possibly natural. The panel has two levels of rock, giving a stepped profile. Each level has cracks, parallel in each portion.  The rock displays prominent bedding across the face of the panel and has previously been the target of shotgun shooting.    This panel was only partially recorded by NADRAP."

Deep valleys delimit the course of the ridge, whilst other springs issue from it.  It is the watershed of the Tees and Wear.  Occasional crags break the slopes.  A road crossing the area divides into eastern and western halves.    In the eastern half of the ridge views in most directions (barring north and northwest along the ridge), are obtained over low-lying southeast Durham, Vale of Mowbray/York and Teesdale to the North Yorkshire Moors and Pennines, including the Barningham Moor area.  One panel is situated at the highest point commanding this all-encompassing view.  The western half and panels also have views off the ridge, but are located lower down the slopes and so limited in view shed.    Some associated monuments and finds have been recorded around the eastern half.  Mesolithic flints, found in the adjacent pastures, suggest a presence before the rock art.  A prehistoric burnt mound, cairnfield, including excavated cist, and fragmentary field system have been recorded here.  By analogy these monuments and finds could bracket the creation of the rock art. However, equally, they could also be contemporary monuments with the panels; no definitive report on the survey and excavation work has been published.

Cup marks are arranged along top part of panel and are well-rounded and regular in shape. Two cups are probably naturally formed by leading edge erosion, each having natural cracks running through. Four other cups are probably carved. Their shape, regularity and positioning on the face are unlikely to have developed from erosion. A large expanse of the panel is not carved. Rock is of small grain size and significantly different to bedrock in this immediate locality. Panel is surprisingly light in colour. Risk to panel from present deforestation. There is one other small squarish hole with angular edges, only 0.02 m in diameter."

Two cups and one possible, on flat surface of boulder, are shallow and large diameter in relation to the panel measuring 0.09 - 0.10 m diameter and 0.02 m deep. Noteworthy that this is another triangular, pointed rock with large cups carved into the pointed end. Stone is very quartzy and there are voids where crystals have dropped out. The cups are almost certainly artificial and similar in size (though not depth) to Brackenheads 3 which is approximately 500 m away.    Views and intervisibility are good, and would be extensive without tree cover. This area is recently replanted and new trees are within 1 m.  This stone will soon be lost."

Distant views can be obtained along the valley to the southeast and southwest, however the sloping sides of the valley mean that the views are discontinuous and separate from one another.

The motif on the edge of the rock is a single cup, but it may be natural being near a leading edge.  There is a marked portion removed on the southeast side of the rock, whilst there are few, if any, traces of weathering.  A natural depression slightly behind the edge (southwest edge) which might be reasonably expected to suffer 'leading edge' erosion.

The authenticity of cup marks and panels in the area has been questioned a number of times - including by the initial discoverer.    The site is illustrated as being on the lip of a valley which feed into the Langley Beck and that divide the Brackenheads area to the southwest.     It might be supposed that the panel has a particularly good view of the main Brackenheads clusters of rock art panels and cairnfields to the southwest, as well as across much of Teesdale.

It may have been covered by moorland turf. Motifs are extensive, unusually for this area where simple and few cup marks are the norm. This is the only panel in Stobgreen/Brackenheads to have rings. Clearly this stone has remained in place, exposed on the hillside and visible since the motifs were added. Leaf litter, pine needles, moss and algae are evident.  Rings are clearly defined and broadly carved. Peck marks leading from cups on northerly face  are large and show either unfinished groove development or unskilled carving."

The views are extensive along and across Teesdale, overlooking much of low-lying ground.  The panels at the terrace edge have views into the higher north and northeast ground ? though the very slopes some panels are on obscure this view.  The views include other rock art areas of Langleydale, Hawkesley, Barningham, and, at distance, the North Yorkshire Moors.  In the case of those panels visited in the plantation, these are the likely views from their locations.    Sites and finds have been previously reported, but not fully recorded, in this area.  Two prehistoric cairnfields are nearby; one surrounding some of the panels by the fieldwall.  A cist has been excavated here, when, perhaps at the same time, other cairns were robbed for the adjacent stone walls.  Terrace edge locations have been favoured for the visibility of religious cairns.  A second cairnfield is further northeast again, near which two prehistoric round houses are reported.  These might be thought Bronze Age and later than the prehistoric rock art.  Earlier finds have also been made in ploughing for the plantation.  These have included minute Mesolithic and Neolithic flints, which together might bracket and be contemporary respectively with the rock art.  No finds have been recorded from the cairnfield.  In the general area a stone circle and burnt mounds have also been recorded, which might be the only contemporary monuments for the rock art.

2028,1,"This is a flat boulder with motifs concentrated at one end leaving large flat area unadorned.  The decorated area does have layers of large quartz crystals which could make cutting the stone very difficult. Six large and deep cups are arranged at the eastern point of panel.  Five cups are about 0.11 m in diameter and 0.06 m deep; the other is marginally smaller. Some are paired, linked by grooves. Many small voids in cup wall previously classed as peck marks are more likely to be erosion holes left by quartz crystal dropout.   The markings are very deep and make this a very visually attractive panel.  Large expanse of panel surface available for decoration - but untouched.     Five other cup marked panels are within 50 m of this panel, but are of poorer quality and with smaller cups.  Cups are well-defined, appear conical and are exceptional in this small site.

2044,10011,"In February 1973 a group of students from Alnwick College of Education, based at the castle, had asked me to take them to see some rock art. Their main course disciplines were different. When we were about to leave the site after looking at the North Plantation rocks when light snow began to fall, Murray Chisholm, a music student, called us back as we went to the minibus. He had noticed a large cup on a rock among dead bracken. This turned out to be the most southerly of a series of rock motifs that covered a whole spine of outcrop rock.    With Lance Strother?s permission we returned, fully equipped, to see if any more rock art was hidden in the dead bracken; this proved to be so on the edges of the outcrop. A mound on the outcrop hinted at something else, so a 26m datum line was established along the length of the outcrop and trenches laid out parallel to it and at right angles. A careful systematic clearance of vegetation revealed piles of cobblestones on top, thinning out to the south. These were drawn and a pattern established where the mound was in the scatter. It had a double kerb and sat on top of the outcrop. The kerb was constructed by laying the two arcs of cobbles and packing the space between them with smaller stones. Cobbles were mostly used, but there was a small arc of pink igneous rock that had presumably been brought to the area originally by ice. A prominent feature of the inner kerb was an upright regular sandstone slab with two cups like eyes looking to the north.    As each cobblestone was cleaned as it emerged, some were found to have motifs pecked into them, mainly with simple cups but others more elaborately. There was sufficient of the mound intact to establish that it was not a field clearance heap, and that the motifs on the cobbles echoed those on the outcrop. The scale of this was unprecedented.    The northern part of the site was more confusing, and a large hollow with an edge of stone at first appeared to be an enclosure. It turned out to be a small quarry. The freestone here splits vertically and horizontally, producing good building blocks, until a floor is reached. This quarry could have removed decorated rock. There were many small slabs and cobbles of the type normally picked up during field clearance that may have been thrown to one side so the quarrymen could get at the good rock surface. They were in lines immediately at the western edge of the working. It is possible that other cairns were demolished in this clearing process. There was less disturbance to the south, though there had been trees there. The whole area is surrounded by magnificent old beech trees, and the planting of these would have caused disturbance. To the east is a large circular hollow that we investigated; it proved to be another of these quarries also seen on Weetwood Moor. The logic seemed to be to locate a good edge of freestone, then exploit it forward and sideways. It is possible to mistake such hollows as settlement sites; it is also possible to mistake limited rectangular stone extraction for a cist.    A profile cross-section of the site shows that there was a very thin layer of sand above the outcrop beneath the cobbles of the mound; in this was the only artefact: a sealed in worked flint that could be used as a scraper of knife and belong to the Neolithic-early Bronze Age period. There was no evidence of any time gap between the mound and the marking of the outcrop, and the thin sand was sterile. The stones of the mound and other scattered stones were from 10-40 cm long, mostly sandstone, with the odd volcanic erratic.     The most important feature of this site is the distribution of marked cobbles. Not only did they form part of the mound, but four kerbstones were cup marked and have been left buried in situ. The rest have been removed to the Museum of Antiquities except for Fowberry Excavation site - Cairn n, which is at Berwick Museum, and Fowberry Excavation site - Cairn r , which could not be relocated during the project.    The decoration on the removed cobbles  varies from simple cups to a complex cup-penannular-radiate design. This complex design was on a cobble found south of the projected south edge of the outer kerb ? unless the mound was longer along its north-south axis, which we don?t know because there was only a light scatter of stone there and more possibility that the outcrop had been cleared of any covering stone. For anyone trying to peck a cup into a cobble, the danger is that the rock will split with the force of the blow. It takes skill."

2045,10011,"According to the tenant farmer, Mr Lee, small shaped standing stones mark an area of common quarry rights for limestone. The Ravensheugh scarp has a profile of limestone overlying massive sandstone, and to the south is coal. The land has thin, poor acidic soil suitable for rough grazing.    When Mr Honeyman inspected this site in 1931 he thought that he could detect an undisturbed rise in the centre, but later there were only signs of untidy digging. Aubrey Burl says that the four stones belong to a type called a ?four poster?, most commonly found in Perthshire. Generally there are four stones set in a rectangle whose sides average 16? (4.88m) east to west by 14? (18.59m) north to south. The stones are usually graded in height and ?a quarter of the sites have cupmarks, but these, unlike the tallest stone, are invariably on the eastern side, nearly always on the south east stone.? He declares them to be ?primarily sepulchral,? having cremations that date to about 1800BC. The reported rise in the centre of this one may have been such a location.

2047,10008,A rock shelter on the River Coquet below Coquet Moor.
2047,10011,"Sandstone cliffs at Morwick, rising from the River Coquet at a fording place, have some of the most unusual motifs in Britain. They were discovered in the nineteenth century and drawn, but closer investigation has led me to find many more on the same surface. They are atypical, as a glance at the drawings shows, for they are based mainly on spiral motifs. Some others may have tumbled from the rock face into the river, where parts of the cliff have collapsed.    The site has a shut--in feel, despite the fact that the land opens up on the north part of the river. The sun seldom reaches the north--facing motifs, which are liberally distributed. Many are beyond easy reach, which suggests that either equipment was needed to reach them or the river was higher. To record some of them, I (Stan Beckensall) had to have a ladder lodged in the river bed when the water was at its lowest. Locally the site has been known as the ?Jack Rock,? with one design seen as a lion?s face.    The motifs were first recorded in the History of the Berwick Naturalists? Club, Volume X (1882-4) by James Hardy after their discovery by Mr Middleton Dand of Hauxley.    Apart from their obvious context at an important fording place across a river that must have been a major food source and vital means of communication, there is a hint that there may have been burials nearby. Mr Dand wrote:  There are several mounds running from north to south on the north side of the river on Warkworth Moor?they are not unlike barrows?or?they may be merely owing to tracks worn at different ages to Pomfret?s Ford.    However, we have to accept that these motifs lie in isolation from any definite prehistoric sites. The spiral motifs are quite different from cups and rings. The only other examples in Northumberland are at Lilburn and West Horton. If we are looking for sea--borne sources of influence (and I don?t see why we should), the obvious direction is not from Ireland, where spirals are frequent in decoration of passage graves. Further north, at Hawthornden in Scotland are similar spirals on cliffs, but that does not link them except stylistically. More obvious parallels would be in Galloway, to the west. So why are they here, who put them there and why? I don?t know. Spirals of any kind are rare in Britain. Their contexts, spread widely, include stone circles, pottery, carved stone balls, maceheads, reused slabs in early Bronze Age graves, and in passage graves in Ireland, Anglesey and Orkney. Some are on rock outcrops. They are not all alike: the horned spiral occurs, for example, only at Morwick and Lilburn, and in Scotland at Temple Wood, Achnabreck, Lamancha, Gilnockie Tower and Orkney. It occurs too on a Grooved Ware vessel from Radley. ?Triple spirals? occur only at Morwick, Achnabreck, and New Grange (Ireland), but they are joined in different ways.    This is what makes Morwick so special, for it has single, S-shaped, horned and triple spirals as well as a unique design of three spirals linked to concentric circles and a spiral surrounded by a ring of cups. All this is to be set against the great rarity of spirals of any kind in Britain. Its position in the landscape makes it one of only 11 open-air sites in northern England and southern Scotland. Unlike the more usual cup and ring motifs this is on a vertical cliff rather than on near-horizontal rock. Its position is in a very important river valley, with many prehistoric sites along the course of the river, close to access from and egress to the sea. There is no man--made monument there, but its position is naturally striking as an important river crossing, so to travellers, hunters, settlers and fishermen it would act as a reference point, taking on perhaps a ritual significance of such importance that it inspired a unique art form. No one had to teach the people to do that; we do not have to look for sources of this art; it may even have been the source. I believe that many motifs can be produced by many different people in different parts of the world instinctively. (Young children are particularly good at discovering spirals for themselves, and I have seen people who are bored in committee meetings forming them on their note pads and agendas.)    In Galloway the majority of spirals are not used in association with cup and ring motifs, but are on rocks by themselves, despite the latter being widely distributed.    The places where spirals have the most significance in England and Scotland are on stone circles, such as Long Meg and Castlerigg (Cumbria), in the passage graves of the Boyne valley (Eire), Anglesey and Orkney. At Newgrange Eire) they are at particularly important places in the grave; as many are inside, only a few people at a time could view them; others are placed on the decorated kerbstones. Such placement gives us a rare dating possibility, but for that site only: later Neolithic. It is just possible that the re-excavation of the pit at Lilburn could provide more information by using modern methods of excavation. It has been said that the horned spiral at Achnabreck is earlier than the cup and ring motifs on the same rock; as it is in exactly the same condition as the best of them, I can see no reason for saying so.    Despite many attempts to explain them, much speculation remains in a world of fantasy-- at least, it doesn?t convince me! What we cannot deny is that they were very important to the people who made and used them; the motifs had a meaning that may continue to elude us. The danger is that we read ourselves into them - a natural response that brings many answers."

The barrow had been carefully constructed, and in places slabs had been laid in overlapping courses. There were signs of burning in various parts of the mound and there was an inverted cinerary urn on a flat stone, crushed beyond restoration. It had ?lozenge?shaped scorings made by a twisted thong.? Some cremated bones of a young child lay among the sherds.    There were two cists. One, with a 3?6? cover (1.07m), contained a contracted skeleton, its knees doubled up to the chin, its left hand under the thigh and right arm across the chest. There was a food vessel with a rim decorated with herringbone ornament inside. Under the right cheek of the body, a man of about forty, was a rounded and flattened pebble-hammer with signs of abrasion. The second cist was not so well made, and was smaller. There were pieces of charcoal inside.     A large unshapely block of stone was placed so as to project slightly over the cist at the SE corner which was near the site of the broken cinerary urn. Upon this stone on the upper face were two cup markings, one of which was smoothed.    There were 17 cup marked stones, all made of rough sandstone, although the parent rock was limestone."

2050,10011,"The excavation of the Turf Knowe North cairn overlooking the Ingram valley is part of a large investigation of an area that includes lynchet field systems, rig and furrow, old field boundaries and settlements of different periods. Undertaken by the Northumberland National Park, the University of Durham and the Northumberland Archaeological Group. It is ambitious and exciting investigation of a large sweep of landscape. The cairn was one of two that did not show up before the excavation. The south cairn was a rare ?tri-radial? type, with cremation burials of the ?food vessel? type; one cist had been emptied of its food vessel and bones and an iron spearhead replaced it.    The north cairn, built on an artificial platform that had flint artefacts from the Middle Stone Age onward contained at least seventeen cremation burials and some food vessels. The large cist at the centre of this mound had a food vessel and beads, accompanying the cremated remains of at least two people but the pit filling around the cist included two small cup marked stones (Turf Knowe b and c) and a saddle quern set on its edge. Another possible cup mark was found on the edge of the capstone (Turf Knowe a) . The cups do not amount to much, but it is important to note that they are there."

2051,2,"Beanley Moor is a north and northeast facing hillside with remains of prehistoric occupation in hillfort and other settlement areas, trackways, ancient field walls and, predating them all, a number of both portable and bedrock panels bearing cup and ring markings. Beanley hillfort settlement, called ?The Ringses? is compact, well sited and in excellent condition with high ramparts and deep ditches. On a sheltered plain beyond is a rectangular stone walled settlement with associated boulder constructed field walls, probably of Romano-British date but unexcavated. A large semi-circular compound up against the steep scarp face is also bounded by large boulders and another settlement area. Beyond and on higher ground is evidence of extensive quarrying for millstones and the hillside is scattered with both glacial and industrial debris.     Intervisibility is good with views to the plain below to the North and North-East and across to the hill fort.  To the South is a cairnfield with substantial cairns, some thought to be funerary. Views extend to Ros Castle to the North. Other rock art lies within 30 m: a block in a cluster of stones which is part of the same ancient fieldwall. Ancient, possible Iron Age or earlier, fieldwalls are close by and elsewhere on the Beanley site.  Cairns are evident within 300 m.     Rock art panels in the area are a mixture of in situ and re-located examples. Iron Age and Romano-British activities may account for the positioning, or more accurately the clearance of panels. The Iron Age hillfort dominates the surrounding area, and this may have been responsible for the creation of the field boundaries akin to those at Lordenshaw.  More recent field clearance is also partially responsible for the movement of some panels; many small clearance cairns are recorded near the Romano-British settlement and field system, and these also incorporate rock art.  Widespread Medieval and Post Medieval quarrying, including that for millstones, may have also destroyed rock art panels.    Beckensall describes panels 1 ? 11 as remaining in the landscape, with two other highly decorated portables found and removed in the 19th Century, are on display in Alnwick Castle Museum. Nine of the eleven were located by the NADRAP survey but some considered debatable as rock art. Panels 8 and 9 could not be located among a multitude of boulders. Only two certain panels are noted here as the others display only single or low number scatters of cup marks without further decoration.      Panel 1 is a covered panel in need of protection. As an example of detailed cup and penannular design in pristine condition it is almost without peer. The find site is interesting as a shaped landscape through which an ancient trackway leads from the hillfort area north toward the lower, more fertile river valley.      Panel 3 is a large expanse of bedrock on an eminence south of the hill fort, near to a still erect unmarked standing stone and ancient field walls. The surface displays a number of ringed cups and other cups scattered without apparent arrangement.  This location overlooks the weather-sheltered plain beneath the scarp, and other lower lying, what must have been, wetlands that are now farmed fields.      Beanley?s other panels are widespread across a large area mostly contained within the sheltered plain. Two others on higher ground are considered uncertain and may be natural or weather dulled marks left by quarrying activity.    Whilst the original locations of some examples cannot be fully determined, there is sufficient situ rock art present to observe a trend similar to other rock art locations: on valley lips or hillside locations with wide views over surrounding low-lying ground.  Here the low-lying ground is mainly marshy and wetlands.  Distant views are obtained to other rock art areas on surrounding higher ground, and no locations appear to be deep within the Beanley-Hunterheugh island of higher ground.  The peripheral nature of the rock art to this island of higher ground is shared by further panels at Hunterheugh.    Thanks are given to Farmers, Landowners and their families who willingly assisted by permitting access, giving guidance and offering personal interpretations."

2052,2,"This rock art area is a largely cleared, improved grassland with rougher fringes,  on a northward-tilting promontory Fell Sandstone Group extending westwards towards the Cheviot Hills.  It is a prominent feature in the landscape of Northumberland, rising from the main sandstone arc, with crags and steep slopes off in most directions, appearing as a high ?island?.    Many views can be obtained from the area.  From the promontory edges views are obtained to the distant Cheviot Hills and Weetwood block over the Till/Breamish, with areas of rock art both on and off the main Fell Sandstone Group arc, such as Doddington/Dod Law, Amerside Law, and Beanley/Hunterheugh rock art areas amongst others.  Back along the promontory the undulating main Fell Sandstones Group arc is seen as Bewick, Blawearie-Bewick and Harehope Moors. The tilt of the promontory itself prevents a view of all areas being obtained till near the hill/slope top.    There is an extensive series of rock art panels across the area.  Evidence of human activity are present across the whole area, and the panels are a mixture of in situ and re-located panels.    Finds which are potentially contemporary with the rock art include Neolithic pottery found below the northwestern crags and other artefacts from nearby Bewick Moor.  A stone circle, previously recorded at this site, is disputed.  A cairn near the main panel, and enclosed cremation cemeteryat the end of the promontory, are both likely Early Bronze Age.    Panels in Group 1 (which includes the main panel) are surrounded by field clearance and quarrying stone debris.  The small clearance cairns are believed to be Post Medieval, placed around the earthfast panels.  Toolmarks (thought to belong to the same period) show efforts were made to quarry parts of the main panel.      Group 3 panels are clustered around (and have been used in) an Iron Age rampart with possible ditch.  A large erratic, also with rock art, has been incorporated wholesale into the ramparts.  Other stones have been cleared to the side of the bank.   A rock art panel previously noted within the rampart has been excavated around and is surrounded by a halo of excavated material.     The Old Bewick Quarry group appear to have been cut from an unknown outcrop. The quarry is likely Post Medieval or Modern in date, possibly destroying, if present, more rock art panels than those recorded in this immediate area.  Post Medieval field walls cross the neck of the promontory, and the surrounding lower slopes.  They are likely the end use of stones from the cairn, clearance and quarrying."

2053,2,"Football Cairn is located 1.7km north west of Rothbury at the height of west-facing slopes between Rothbury and Cartington.  Football Cairn panels are mostly close to the once large burial cairn sited on top of this prominent hill.  (The name is claimed to derive from the ?kick off point? for an inter-village competitive football match, similar to one held annually at Alnwick. This practice has died out). Several panels of rock art have been identified in this area.  They are concentrated near the top of a high rounded summit, though none have been found at the very top.      The top of the area possesses a large, disturbed cairn with a central cist covered by a capstone, and smaller satellite cists.  An edge of low stones, of single stone thickness, is partly visible. Some stones appear to be selected Cheviot granite (contrasting with the grey Fell Sandstone bedrock).  Lots of bedrock is exposed in this area as well; much possesses many quartz and iron-base veins of material.  A few boulders appear set upright in the area, possibly in connection with the cairn.    The cairn has been much disturbed, particularly to the southeast of the main cist.  No specific report is noted though several items have vague provenances in the Greenwell and Alnwick Collections.  The hill has also suffered quarrying evidenced by widespread depressions across the hill, and quarried southeastern flanks.  A pathway runs up the side of the hill from the carriageway drive.  Some of this might have been quarried for Lord Armstrong?s Cragside estate.    Both the rock art and cairn afford an extensive view in all directions except the southeast.  The view includes other rock art areas at Lordenshaw, Ravensheugh and Chirnells, with some of these very panels visible, on the Fell Sandstone Group, as well as the Cheviot Hills. The Chirnells site is clearly visible as outcropping stone along a ridge. Within 1km, though not in direct line of sight, there is confirmed rock art at Westhills. Views to the west and north are excellent overlooking valley routes that follow the Coquet toward Alwinton, and southwest toward Elsdon.  The higher Simonside ridge can be seen across the valley. The coastline is visible in the distance to the East.    At this elevation, 255m, light grey sandstone bedrock can be seen exposed across the top of the hill. The thin layer of acidic soil supports only patchy grass, heather and bracken. In prehistory it is likely, that even in a warmer climate, tree cover would be sparse.  This high ground, rocky and exposed, appears to have changed little over time.    Fifteen metres north of the cairn, a naturally and deeply weathered stone stands erect. There are no identified cup marks on this or other stones north of the cairn: all marked rock art panels lie to the east and south of the cairn and hill summit.     Panel A is on exposed outcrop 10m south and down-slope from the cairn displaying cups with multiple rings, heavily eroded and therefore difficult to identify. Some features are visible only in low evening sunlight or with the sheen of water cover. Periodic long-term exposure to weathering has flattened all surface definition. The artwork seems to have eroded noticeably when compared with earlier photographs.     Panel B, some 12m further, is an upstanding triangular block with a single large and deep cup.  In common with much of the rock thereabouts, thick lines of quartz run through it. This cup could be a natural depression eroded and deepened by water pooling over time. Regularity of shape, position and proximity to nearby confirmed rock art promote its tentative acceptance as artificial.    Panel C, though pictured in the Beckensall Archive, could not be located. This is another panel with certain carved markings, cups with grooves and multiple rings and it is disappointing it not to have been found in this project.  Hopefully, it exists under turf and has not become invisible through erosion.    Panel D is 100m southeast, a small boulder with multiple randomly placed cups which appear carved and grouped in an arrangement.  Other faces, however, show smaller cupules caused by erosion or dropout of intrusions, so, once again, a suspicion of natural formation exists for the motifs claimed.  There is evidence everywhere on these slopes that large outcrops and large glacially deposited boulders have been cut up and moved by extensive quarrying activity.    Panel E, located on a north-facing outcrop 120m northeast of the cairn is a fine arrangement. Most significant are two cups with multiple rings, separated by a large bowl-like hollow that may be natural.  Other large hollows in nearby rock show this sandstone subject to this type of weathering. In this instance, it may have been used as part of the design or indeed may have attracted the carver to this location. This panel is the furthest panel from the cairn site.    Panel F is a large slab of exposed bedrock, within 20m of the cairn. It is patterned by lines of thick quartz and the Beckensall Archive records two cup marks. Many other outcropping surfaces nearby and exposed slopes leading to Football Cairn, show instances of very similar cups not claimed to be artificial. The cups here are nicely formed, round, of similar depth and profile. A possible credibility is given by the proximity of Panel A, only10m away; however, authenticity of these two cups as carved is uncertain.      Panel G, on the southeast slope of the hill, is one of many large, exposed, flat expanses of bedrock. The cups claimed are similar to others evident on most nearby exposed rock. Sandstone composition here allows the natural formation of cups, bowls, shallow basins and interlinking shallow drainage grooves.  Evidence of quarrying is widespread and some stones show small multiple indentations recognised as relating to this activity. In the absence of other more definite decoration it is uncertain that these cups are carved.    This is an interesting group of panels and well worth visiting. Complex motifs, once sharply carved are now mostly worn down, flattened by the effect of long exposure to weathering. Close proximity links the rock carving to the burial cairn that might be of a much later date, and may, as much as the prominent elevation, have influenced the cairn builders? choice of site.

2054,2,"Ros Castle is a high and prominent hill dominating the immediate landscape and clearly visible in the surrounding area for 15 - 20 miles.  An Iron Age hillfort occupies the summit, with lower slopes being traversed by many hollow ways and tracks both ancient and modern. The hill overlooks an access route from coastal plain to interior and views from the top are spectacular. The area is evocative of prehistory; a foreboding hill above, bare almost featureless moorland around and little sign of human intrusion, other than the modern road and the general lack of native trees.    The main group of rock art panels, Ros Castle 1 to 5, are closely grouped in a small area of outcropping sandstone that shows clear signs of quarrying, at the base of the hill, about 100m from the roadside. The quarrying activity is undated, and is unrecorded by Ordnance Survey map. Two other panels, Ros Castle 6 to 7, of debatable provenance, are found about 330m southeast, 50m from the road.    The panels overlook lower ground along the Fell Sandstone Group range to the south and across the Till valley to the west, including other rock art areas.  A view eastwards is blocked by a low ridge for the western group though the eastern pair on this ridge share largely the same western views.  The panels are situated at the watershed of tributaries of the Aln and Till rivers.    There are no monuments contemporary with the rock art north of the road.  To the south and southeast, on Hepburn Moor, are many cairns, mostly clearance but with some cist burials and an unenclosed hut circle thought to be Bronze Age.  The cairns spread from high moorland to low-lying marsh and are mostly on east-facing slopes.  A small number of rock art panels are located here but few remain in situ.  Towards the coast, beyond Modern forestry plantations, lie extensive cairnfields including large Bronze Age cairns at Chatton Sandyfords and Lucker Moor. Other remains of quarrying and the immediately adjacent undated series of hollow-ways are thought likely Medieval or Post Medieval in date.    Panels 1-5 are marked with well-formed cup scatters and some linear arrangements identifying them as artificial. Two panels, numbers 3 and 5 are particularly well populated with cups on small areas of exposed rock.  Panel 3 is difficult to find, lying flat to the ground and in deep heather. It appears to be of original size and is densely marked with small, well-formed cups in a perceptibly linear design, curving around separate larger cups.  Panel 5 is outcrop with quarried edges but retains a scatter of cups. Panel 2 was previously described as bearing a single cup. This is centrally placed with one other possible cup near an edge. Photogrammetry reveals a large diameter carved ring / oval around the central cup and extending over most of the available surface. This faint ring may have formed part of an original design, a later addition, or possibly as a guideline for carving out a quern or small millstone.    This main group is noteworthy for its position, which is only slightly elevated above the route-way valley between hills. Significantly, they are not on higher available outcrops, and therefore are less visible within a wide landscape. The position, however, is clearly visible from any route-way using this passage through the hills.    The two remote panels, 6 and 7 are doubtful as artificial cup marked stones.  No. 6 is a large block with many shallow hollows but none merits certain qualification as man made.  No.7 is a large shallow cup shape bisected by a natural crack. Without adornment or peck markings, it could easily have developed from natural weathering to this southwest-facing outcrop.    This may always have been a remote and relatively inaccessible location, but as a route from coast to the interior it has probably sustained continuous use. Ros Castle Hill is the highest in the locality and has likely been a landmark through time. It is possible, though speculative, that the exposed and much quarried scarp edge from the main group to the two remote and suspect panels, could have displayed other carved markings.    Thanks are given to Farmers, Landowners and their families who willingly assisted by permitting access, giving guidance and offering personal interpretations."

2183,2,"This area is a low Fell Sandstone Group block that rises from east to west.  Rock art panels are found along a slightly elevated ridge, rising generally with the trend, but with slight slopes to the north and south.  Much bedrock is exposed on the ridge top, with low natural and, where quarried, higher crags along the flanks.  The area is mainly rough grazing and moorland, bounded by stonewalls and fences, separated from improved and cleared grasslands for stock and gamebird plantations.    Wide views can be obtained from the rock art locations.  However, in places the adjacent rising ground of the higher Whitsun Bank and Coldmartin areas prevents distant views.  The Cheviot and Fell Sandstone Hills distantly ring the site to the west, north and east with other rock art areas visible, such as Doddington Moor/Dod Law, Gled Law, Buttony and Horton areas, as well as the main Fell Sandstone Group arc.  The more elevated portions of this area overlook the Milfield Basin and River Till lowland areas.    There are no later prehistoric monuments in the immediate area, though a series of settlements is known nearby. Post Medieval activity has, however, taken place.  Much evidence of quarrying is present with many ?steps?, and sheer and sharp edges of remaining rock at the east of the ridge.  A stonewalled enclosure has been recorded in the western part of the area, continuing into the adjacent plantation.  These constructions, together with the adjacent stonewalls, and clearance of the lower slopes and surrounding fields, may have destrroyed other prehistoric monuments and rock art panels.  A number of modern walker?s cairns are located beside some of the rock art panels."

2220,2,"Buttony 2 is the third of six panels carved along 50 m length of a quarried crag situated at the top of a scarp slope leading down to the valley of the River Till.  The crag runs in a SW-NE direction and leads into a hill fort.  A dense mature plantation has been planted over the site of the panels.  The plantation is also used for intensive rearing of pheasants for shooting.    This area extends from the flanks of Doddington Moor/Dod Law as moorland, arable and pasture farmland and plantations.  It is largely flat, ending with steep western and southern slopes down to the Till.  It is based on a low Fell Sandstone Group terrace, which occasionally outcrops in the western slopes.  There are craggy portions across the area with steep, localized, slopes.  Slopes to the east are generally gentler, extending eastwards to Buttony.    From the plateau edges wide views can be obtained in a variety of directions to the distant Cheviot Hills and other Fell Sandstone Group areas, and over and along the Till valley.  This includes some rock art areas, such as the north of Weetwood Moor and the main Chatton Park-Old Bewick ridge.  The crags and rising ground of Doddington Moor/Dod Law prevent an all-round view of distant areas.    The gentle slopes have allowed Post Medieval ploughing of the ground to be undertaken with disturbance and destruction of archaeological monuments.  A few monuments contemporary with the rock art panels of the Neolithic/Early Bronze Age have been recorded.  These include Cuddie?s Cave rock shelter on the western flanks of Gled Law from which rock art has been recorded, as well as barrows and cairns with grave goods and others which are possibly related to agricultural clearance.  These were discovered in the 19th century, as ploughing started on the flatter portions of the area.    The steep slopes have escaped the ploughing and a number of monuments have been recorded.  These enclosures and settlements are thought to date from the Bronze Age onwards, or the later prehistoric periods, remaining as earthworks.  Ridge and furrow also survives in places with Post Medieval field banks."

2221,2,"This area can be defined as the southeastern slopes from the Doddington Moor and Gled Law plateaux to the River Till and the stream behind Hetton.  The gentle slopes are mainly improved grassland and evergreen plantations used for the rearing of stock and gamebirds respectively.  Scattered outcrops are present throughout these slopes, often with dumped stones from the surrounding fields and gorse bushes in elevated areas.  Little now remains of monuments contemporary with the creation of the rock art panels here, though these have been recorded, as have some finds, in the course of agricultural activities.    The slopes give good views from the elevated high ground across the Till Valley and its tributary the Hetton Burn.  The rock art panels are found down the valley sides, so a variety of levels of view are obtained, but a spur of land prevents views to other areas in the lower areas.  The Till Valley changes course below these panels, from south to the west, as it skirts around the Gled Law/Doddington Moor area.     There are no associated monuments contemporary with the rock carvings in this area.  The nearest such monument is a stone circle at Doddington Moor.  There has been widespread agricultural improvement and plantations of the surrounding ground.  This has resulted in the destruction of a later prehistoric unenclosed settlement, possibly Bronze Age, and led to the discovery of several prehistoric flint artefacts.  Several loose stone scatters are noted in the nearby field edges as modern clearance cairns.  The good views from elevated parts of the area are indicated by the presence of a number of World War 2 pillboxes."

[IAG]    The Swastika Stone (SST01) is a large, flat outcrop rock 6.5 x 2.3m  with a top surface 0.4m above the surrounding turf on the W and S sides, but approx 9m above the boulder strewn hillside on N side. The rock is a very coarse grit stone with visible pebbles up to 10mm across. There are visible bedding planes adjacent to the carved area, which is on the SW side of the rock. The carved motifs are now very worn and faint but there is a detailed copy of the motif on an adjacent rock to the S. The motif consists of five cups enclosed in a sinuous (swastika shaped) complete groove. There are four cups attached around the outside of the groove and a spur to the groove which curves into a cup with a penannular groove. There are a further five cups to the E and W of the main motif which may be natural. There is a natural oval basin 0.31m x 0.37m x 0.1m deep at the E end of the rock. [CSIRM 2012]    Subsequent (post CSI recording)photogrammetric processing and Reflectance Transform Imaging,  revealed possible connecting grooves between three of the cups located in the ?arms? and the surrounding grooves, in addition to possible linear markings of uncertain provenance. It was also apparent that the connecting groove between the Swastika motif and the cup and partial ring to the NE was superimposed with a greater depth. This may indicate two phases of carving have taken place. [CSIRM 2012]"

The stone, which measures 1.9m x 0.9m x 0.95m in height, although large, may have been deliberately placed and readied for quarrying. Its longest axis is SE to NW, and the now sloping surface is angled at 26 degrees from NW down to SE. Differential weathering is evident on the NW corner, which may indicate the stone having been in a position more prone to weathering at some point in the past. The most prominent features on the stone are the four equidistant quarrying (feathering) marks placed approx 0.3m apart towards the northern edge. A single, cup-like artificial depression with a 0.08m diameter follows the same line of the feathering, towards the lower NE edge, on an area where planar erosion/scaling has taken place. The two highest feathering marks appear to have been placed in circular depressions, which could possibly suggest that cup-like marks were created to aid the quarrying process on this particular stone. The fact that the lower cup is equidistant to the feathering and on the same line, may indicate that this too is the result of later quarrying rather than prehistoric activity, which would make this stone and markings an unusual example.

2348,6,"Medium-sized, flat-topped rock of fairly smooth grit, surface very worn. Low sun is needed to appreciate the fine carvings. About twenty-four cups, at least nine with full or partial rings, one set triple and one double, one with double groove half round single ring and continuing down; six ladder designs of two types. [IAG]    Panel Barmishaw 02 (BS02) is a coarse sandstone boulder, measuring 2.31m x 1.6m x 0.46m high, sloping 4 degrees from WNW-ESE. The carvings are on the upper surface of the rock, almost all on the flat, NW area. The carvings are very complex and consist of seven cups surrounded by ring(s) which have ladder motifs attached; 14 individual cups, six of which are eroded; one possible dumbbell motif; four short linear parallel grooves, which presumably are the remains of a ladder; a  cup with a possible arc and a cup and ring with groove curving around another cup. One of the most striking elements about the panel is the difference in wear between some of the motifs. There appears to be some motifs that have been superimposed on others, and whilst some are extremely clear, others are only visible in low lighting conditions and the 3D model. This is apparent when examining the ladder motif at the NW end of the rock, where the cup, inner ring, ladder ?rungs? and northern side of both encircling grooves appear to have been carved to a significantly greater depth than the same grooves at the southern side. Whether this is the original depth, the result of later enhancement or addition is not entirely clear, but this, along with superimposition does add weight to the probability that multiple phases of carving may have taken place.

Cup furthest N is recorded in IAG, PRN and SAM as a cup with a ring, but careful examination, in favourable lighting conditions show probable natural ridges. There are also references to cups on E face, but this should probably read W face, where there are around 18 depressions. The oldest and deepest are almost certainly rifle bullet damage: the shallowest, some of which are very recent, are probably the result of shotgun pellet damage. None are considered prehistorically carved. [CSIRM 2012]"

The stone, which has a long E-W axis, is not fully embedded and has probably been moved to the outer edge of the field during clearance. There are a number of short, thin, shallow linear marks in the SW quadrant, which may be plough damage, but this is uncertain. The motifs, which can be found towards the eastern edge, consist of a shallow, irregular shaped cup within a rough, irregular, shallow incomplete ring with a 25cm diameter.  A line of small linear depressions cut across the stone centrally N-S. Whilst these markings appear to cross two bedding layers, suggesting artificiality, it is not clear whether they are intentionally carved, caused during relocation or possibly plough damage. A number of small circular depressions in an area of quartz pebble inclusions are visible just W of centre, are presumably the result of pebble loss and weathering.

The groove also has similar characteristics (width, depth, position across bedding planes) to the definite carved grooves on PR10 which is 1m NW. The presence of PR10 and 2 other carved stones within 4m may also add weight to the possibility that the features are anthropogenic. However, there are also some natural curving bedding features present on the stone. [CSIRM 2013]    Panel found by Tertia Barnett during project fieldwork. [CSIRM]"

At E of the rock to the overhang there are extensive weathering features of basins and deep cup-like depressions that are natural. The exposed positioning of this rock has caused extensive weathering to the surface which, coupled with its overhanging position and steep slope towards the sheer drop to N, W and E, makes it impossible to survey without safety lines and harnesses.

The moraine can be traced south-east from Lanshaw Delves towards Reva Reservoir (SE 151 428), as its trend changes to conform to the Guiseley Gap. This deviation in the direction of the moraine can be related to the lateral moraine of a glacier moving from Wharfedale towards the Airedale Valley.  The higher sections of moraine, above 350m, rest on solid rock, whilst lower sections lie on glacial till. At Lanshaw Delves the moraine consists of gravels made up of Carboniferous sandstones, chert, ironstone nodules and Carboniferous limestone erratics.  In previous times the Carboniferous limestone erratics were quarried at Lanshaw Delves and elsewhere in the moraine and utilised for lime burning.  (W. Yorkshire Geology Trust 2009)  The whole of the ridge has been dug over for limestone probably in the 17C and early 18C and possibly earlier, leaving behind trenches, hollows and mounds over the entire length and width of the site.  The remains of 7 lime burning kilns of early clamp-kiln design were identified along the S edge during the CSIRM  survey at the following locations: 1- SE12790 45456; 2- SE12836  45452; 3- SE12925 45437; 4- SE12992 45424; 5- SE 13012 45424; 6- SE13045 45423; 7- SE13168 45424.  With the exception of kiln 1, each has an associated mound of irregular stone, some showing heat discolouration, suggesting that the kiln lining has been robbed out leaving behind unusable stone.

A cairn is incorporated into the rubble wall 9m NNW of the carving, although loose rocks may indicate some stones have been added in relatively recent times. Another low, smaller and less conspicuous cairn with an approximate diameter of 3m (visible during recording) is 15m SSW. CTH08 appears adjacent to an intersection of rubble walling, with more extant curvilinear remains running in a E ? W direction, but disappearing approx. 50m to the W.

[IAG]    A fine-grained sandstone sub-rectangular boulder measuring 1.15m x 0.7m x 0.62m in height, possibly hewn on its N and W edges. The stone is unlikely to be in its original position, and may have been moved into walling, traces of which can be seen immediately W of the adjacent hawthorn tree. Relocation may account for the motifs being sited on the now southern vertical face, which is unusual for rock art in this region. Bedding planes are visible towards the current top surface where ?LH? has been carved. Motifs consist of four well defined cups in a central position, four with 6cm diameters and one with a 5cm diameter. A smaller cup with a 4cm diameter is 15cm to the west of this group. Just E of the most easterly well defined cup is a smaller shallow depression with a 3cm diameter and the possibility of a broken ring or arc. It is not entirely clear whether this is natural, a carving or enhanced natural but traces of the stones surface being broken is apparent. On the S vertical face, towards the top western corner is a depression reminiscent of a ?dumbbell? motif and an additional cup-like feature is on the top E corner, whether these are carved or natural is open to question.

2631,2,"Rombalds Moor: Craven Hall Hill, Burley Moor, E of former shooting range. [IAG 2003]    Craven Hall Hill 03 (CHH01) is currently (November 2012) incorporated into the N corner of revetment walling, immediately N of the rifle range hut on Craven Hall Hill towards the eastern end of Rombalds Moor. The stone is not in situ, and has been relocated on at least two occasions, including movement to its current position sometime between 2010 and 2012. Aerial photography from 2009 shows the stone in position some 17m NNE, further up the slope. This area of Rombalds is the location of some of the most impressive and extant prehistoric remains on the moor, particularly to the NW. Monuments here include a large cairn called The Great Skirtful of Stones (Scheduled Monument Number 1010358 / 25286) 860m 306?, a ring cairn with a 27m diameter (Scheduled Monument Number 1010357 / 25285)  is 770m 308?,  a ring cairn with 24m diameter (Scheduled Monument Number 1010356 / 25284) is 386m 308? and several smaller cairns approximately 100m directly S of The Great Skirtful. Approximately 500m WSW, a cairnfield consisting of 25+ cairns (some robbed) and two carved rocks (Hawksworth Shaw 01 and 02) can be seen around the Hawksworth Shaw area. A structure which is marked as a ?Ring Cairn? on OS maps is 184m 286? (WNW), although the scheduling (1010355 / 25283) suggests this may actually be a robbed round cairn.  Three, 2-3m diameter round cairns sit just S of the fence 80m to the NW at grid references SE 14694 44086, SE 14675 44070, SE 14650 44048 and a more linear cairn / structure at SE14666 44048. The provenance of the cairn features near the fence is unclear, but the fact they line up against a relatively modern boundary and their proximity to a later quarrying may possibly suggest they are not prehistoric, although all are well compacted with earth. To the N and W, old tracks in the form of hollow ways run in a southerly direction, although one to the W has stone revetted which probably indicates deliberate creation. There are also signs of extractive industry in the area, with the remains of limestone boulder pits W through to N and a sandstone quarry 60m N. Carvings Craven Hall Hill 02 (CHH02) is 268 m 329? (NNW) and Craven Hall Hill 01 (CHH01) 160m 304? (NW). It is also worth noting that several stones on the slope immediately to the W-NW display old bullet impacts, which are already beginning to erode and resemble cup marks. This ?cup-like? appearance will undoubtedly further increase over time due to further erosion and a darkening patina. The stones in question are a flat stone, 2m in length at grid reference SE 14737 44056 which has approximately 11 impacts at the SW corner, a 1m flat stone at SE 14733 44056 with 10+ impacts, a stone with 3 or 4 impacts on SE face at SE 14661 44055 and a stone with 2 impacts on SE face at SE 14672 44045.

Both faces covered with cups or varying depth, 1 on each face being particularly deep. Side 1 ? rock surface well weathered; 11 cups and 1 double cup forming an oval. Side 2 ? surface rough and unweathered: 10 cups, 3 possible cups, and a further 33 cups broken off at edge of rock (IAG)    Elam grange 01 (EG01) is a rectangular, medium grain, possibly dressed sandstone block measuring 0.33m x 0.27m x 0.13m. Its current upper surface has motifs including ? seven definite single cups varying in diameter between 4-7cm and 1-4cm in depth, one truncated cup, one small possible cup, two conjoined cups and an area of worked stone containing a further example of conjoined cups and a large broad groove. It is not entirely clear whether these latter two motifs have been countersunk into the area of working, or the area around these motifs has been subsequently enhanced. Similarly, there is a strong suggestion of a cup within the broad groove, but determining which motif has been superimposed is difficult. All of the motifs appear fresh, and small rounded peck marks consistent with stone tooling are present in most, suggesting the stone has been protected from weathering.    One of the most intriguing elements is that all the cups appear to be sited fairly centrally along faint fissures which connect cups in strips. This may be an artefact of cup creation rather than ?design?, but examination of archive photos shows the same to be true of the reverse side which is also cup marked. In addition, the truncated cup on the current upper surface is halved, and the reverse side is recorded as having threw truncated cups next to each other along the same edge. This suggests that the stone, which is known to have two other pieces (now lost), may have fractured along a fissure/fault which ran through cups.    The stone shows signs of possible recent damage and had been previously recorded as being sited on top of the wall, rather than its current position. In order to prevent further damage only the upper surface was recorded during project fieldwork. Ilkley Archaeology Group indicate upwards of 16 definite cups on the reverse side. [CSIRM]"

2633,2,"Black Beck 01 (BLA01) is positioned on gently sloping moorland in the Hawksworth Shaw area of Hawksworth Moor, 65m W of Black Beck and 325m SSE of Skirtful Spring. Heather burning over the last 10 years has created patches of vegetation at various stages of regrowth. In some areas scatters of stones have been revealed, with twelve cairns identified within the survey area both E and W of Black Beck. Most of these cairns are low lying, oval and vary in size from a few metres to approximately five metres. The nearest and smallest of these cairns is 5m NE of the carved rock. 20m S of the carving, a possible linear feature comprised of sizable boulders, appears to arc south for approximately 40m. However, encroaching heather makes it impossible to map and identify this feature accurately (February 2013). 24m NNW of the carving, in a recently burnt area, a stone is surrounded by an arc of small, low earthbound stones, which look to have been placed. Other stones stone collections immediately around this area may well form structures, but there is not enough surface evidence to suggest definite features. On the W bank of the beck three shallow linear ditches/channels of unknown provenance cut into the landscape. The most southerly at SE 14005 43850 (out of survey area) runs for approximately 25m W-E and appears to have some stones revetted into its banks, suggesting some degree of artificiality.

[IAG]    The Heygate Stone, which appears to have been dressed on at least two sides, is an irregular pentagonal shape, very coarse grain sandstone boulder measuring 0.58m x 0.54m, rising to approximately 0.27m at its highest point. Although the stone is relatively small, it has a busy design of motifs clustered on the upper bedding layer, covering approximately half of the upper surface. Motifs, some of which still display peck marks, consist of two individual cups, one irregular and the other truncated; two cups with single rings, one with a possible groove (damage?) emanating from the outer ring; two carved circular areas with cups and single rings countersunk in (one truncated); two cups with double rings; a possible satellite cup and ring / partial ring, and a linear groove connected to the carved circular area containing the lower countersunk cup and truncated ring.  There are several artificial linear grooves on most faces, it is not clear whether these, along with three small cup-like depressions on one face are damage or form part of the design. A small quartz pebble inclusion present within the area of the largest cup and double ring appears to have been carefully worked around by the carver.     It is worth noting that the original report for this carving mentions several possible connecting grooves between motifs. Unfortunately, the stone was recorded in relatively low light and none of these features could be determined during recording. A subsequent photogrammetric 3D model with an approximate 1mm surface mesh was also inconclusive.     The stone was laser scanned by National Museums Liverpool around 2006. [CSIRM 2013]"

2672,6,"Panel Glovershaw Farm 06 (GSF06) is carved on the upper sub-rectangular surface of a wedge-shaped straight-sided block of sandstone probably of bedrock rather than a glacially deposited boulder.  The upper beds of the block are medium-grained and cross-bedded with the upper surface glacially polished and very smooth and showing bedding as fine, closely spaced parallel lines across the short axis of the rock surface.  The rock was moved to its present position c.2001 and its long axis is now roughly E-W with the thickest part of the rock to W on ground sloping down to W.  Repeated plough strike grooves scar both long edges of the rock but not the centre of the panel suggesting that the rock has been moved at least once before in historic times and there is older damage along the S side of the rock.  There is very recent damage to the NE corner of the rock but this area is not carved.    A complex carving extends over approximately two-thirds of the upper surface of the rock consisting of around 60 cups of varying size, shape and depth, and long sinuous grooves enclosing some areas of carving and connecting others presenting a very ?organic? form to the overall panel.  A large number of the cups and grooves show very clear and distinct pecking including one dense area of pecking around a central cup. The excellent preservation of the tooling makes this carving of considerable importance.  A group of cups at what is now the SW of the rock are on a raised and domed area of the rock that is more weathered than the rest of the carving.  Running from this area to NE along a distinct line of bedding is a long groove that appears must be carved but is very difficult to interpret as the rock is heavily eroding back particularly through freeze-thaw action along one edge of the groove and exacerbated by water flow.    At the NE corner of the rock is a sharply defined groove of unknown cause but probably made by a metal object rather than a stone tool and there is a groove of similar origin on the N side of the rock.

2675,6,"Extensive exposure of bedrock, about 26m W to E and between 4-8m N to S.  W end was turf-covered until stripped in 19th century for quarrying.  Rock here is sound but seems to have moved towards the valley as there is a grass-filled crack, further E is decayed. W end has two unusual figures, one cut slightly during quarrying, and there is a further carving on the next section: these all have cups and the first has three single rings, but the remarkable feature is the complex arrangement of grooves, mostly curved and forming enclosed designs.  'Celtic' design added in 1994.  Further grooves discovered in portion of bedrock off to S edge by Stan Beckensall (August 1999).  Speight (see Bibliog.) described recent carvings, then evident from a freshly exposed section of the rock.  These must be the cups and rings on the badly decayed eastern sections which were not originally shown. [IAG 2003]    Hangingstone Rock is an area of bedrock saved from quarrying in the 19th century. The overall dimensions of the exposed area is 26m x 8m, but the bedrock extends further. For the purposes of project recording, the stone has been recorded in five sections (A-E).       Hangingstone Rock ? Panel A  Panel A is the most westerly section of carved bedrock and has current dimensions of 7.15 m (E-W) x 4.27m (N-S) and stands to a height of 0.88m on the northern quarried side.  The upper surface is flat in comparison to the carved areas of bedrock to the E, and consists of very coarse-grained sandstone, with the occasional quartz pebble inclusion. The Motifs, which are found towards the eastern end, are a mixture of simple carvings comprising traditional cups, rings and grooves to two distinctive curvilinear arrangements which incorporate wide deep grooves, cups and rings. Towards the south east end, next to the current (July 2013) vegetation line, are a number of possible grooves and an eroded cup with a partial ring. Further motifs have been previously noted in the area directly S, and are now covered by vegetation. Whether the motifs on this western section are all contemporary or represent different phases of carving is unknown, but the differences in style and weathering may point towards more than a single phase or carver.     This stone is one of a number of complex carvings perched on the scarp edge which overlook the Wharfe Valley. This area of bedrock has been the site of numerous modern carvings / graffiti, the most recent being August 2012 when some of the prehistoric motifs were compromised.      Hangingstone Rock ? Panel B & E  Panels B and E are placed on the central area of bedrock, between Panel A to the west and Panels C and D on the adjoining section of bedrock to the east, which is only separated by a soil and vegetation filled narrow fissure. This exposure of bedrock which contains Panels B & E measures 8.9m (N-S) x 6.10m (E-W) has an undulating surface with extensive planar erosion and differential weathering in the form of circular and irregular bowls of varying size and depth.  Panel B, which can be found on the north western end, consists of a complex cellular design of 10 cells, 2 of which contain single cups and 1 near the centre containing 3 cups. A single, possible groove extends from the top NE corner, 30cm in a northeast direction. There are 2 single cups immediate south of the cellular design and 2 roughly parallel, 40cm grooves which are probably natural. At the east end of these lower groove is a large, probably natural bowl, and to the west of this a ?V? shaped depression, possibly enhanced with a natural fissure running into it. To the west and north of the cellular design are recent carvings of an ?X? and ?T?. Panel E, which comprises the north-eastern section of the same area of bedrock, has numerous cup-like depressions and many more natural erosion bowls. In the area drawn (see Plan E), 12 of these depressions are thought possibly carved, 9 natural in addition to a carved cup with an arc. There are a number of other probably natural depressions outside the area of the plan, in addition to possible grooves on a small island of bedrock, separated by grass immediately south of the southwest corner.     Hangingstone Rock ? Panel C & D   Panels C and D are located on the eastern section of exposed bedrock, to the east of Panels B and E and a soil and vegetation filled fissure. This area of bedrock has two distinct bedding layers, with the higher layer on the western half and lower on the eastern section, which is free of motifs. The overall dimensions for this area is 6.85m x 5.80m, with an approximate 5m drop on the northern side. Similar to the area of bedrock to the west, the upper surface undulates and there are numerous bowls of varying size, depth and shape, in addition to areas of differential weathering and planar erosion. The motifs for Panel C are found towards the northwest corner and consist of various cups, cups with grooves, rings and arcs. Panel D is further east and comprise a further cup with two possible radial grooves and an arc, then a few metres to the east, a highly eroded cup with two rings / partial rings set within an irregular natural depression. Although the latter motif is barely visible, a 3D photogrammetric processing model confirmed the possibility of the features.     Immediately south of this area of bedrock, amongst the heather and vegetation are at least two bowls with cup-like profiles but diameters exceeding 0.5m. It is not known whether these are entirely natural, enhanced natural or artificial, but they do not fit comfortably into the accepted cup-and-ring tradition, and therefore have not been included in project recording.

[IAG 2003]    Panorama Rocks 04 (PAR04), which was relocated to its current position in the Victorian period, is the most northeasterly stone housed within an iron railing enclosure opposite St Margaret?s Church, Ilkley.   Unfortunately, there is no direct access to the stone, which limited project recording.    The stone, which is a fairly flat, sub-rectangular boulder, is thought to have been broken into four pieces either for, or during transportation, and subsequently cemented back to together. It is a coarse-grained sandstone and measures approximately 3.3m x 2.5m x 0.55m in height. Due to access, detritus and algae coverage recording proved difficult during project fieldwork where only minimal carvings detail could be seen. However, subsequent examination of 3D laser scan data carried out by The Scan Team for Dr Little's Heritage Group in 2007 highlighted various definite and other possible motifs including seven single cups, two cups with single arcs, two cups with single rings, one truncated cup and multiple ring, two cups with possible multiple ?keyhole? motifs,  one cup with multiple penannular (incorporating four further possible cups between outer rings), a possible linear groove and ten cups with multiple rings / partial rings which incorporate ladder motifs, some connecting to others. It is apparent from the 3D model that parts of four of the ladder motifs and one multiple ring motif have been carved to different depths, when compared to other connecting motifs. Whether this depth is original, or suggests different phases of carving or enhancement is debateable. Two of the many interesting aspects of the laser scan data is the possibility that the ladder ?rungs? may extend beyond the ?rails? on three of the motifs, and a set of ladders (rails) may continue and connect motifs on adjoining section of stone.

2683,8,"Rock has been moved to railed enclosure in urban position approximately 10m from road. Main threats are from the tree canopy, leaf detritus, algae and possibly exhaust fumes from passing traffic. Due to urban setting and road proximity there is a threat from human interference and maintenance of surrounding railings. Paint from previous maintenance can be seen on two of the stones within the enclosure. Although the rock was broken when moved and concreted together ? cracks have started appearing and moved sections of the stone further apart."

2725,2,"Rombalds Moor: Rushy Beck, Burley Moor, towards the top end of Woofa Bank, in bracken and crowberry. [IAG]    Woofa Bank, Burley Moor, is an escarpment of Long Ridge Sandstone on the N scarp slope of Rombalds Moor and is the eastern continuation of Green Crag; from Woofa Bank, the land slopes to NE as a gently sloping plane, formerly known as Woofa Level, to the escarpment of Stead Crag, where the land falls very steeply down to the Burley Woodhead/Ilkley road. Below the N edge, and in the lee of, Woofa Bank is Woofa Bank prehistoric enclosure approx 80m x 55m, consisting of a rubble bank with large boulders, some orthostatic, and some coursed stone. The rubble bank commences at E and arcs through N to NNE where it continues roughly linearly to SW and then curves to SSE, appearing to end on the lower, rock-strewn, slope of Woofa Bank.    At the approx centre of the enclosure is a small standing stone, around which are clustered seven carved panels, WB09 and WB12-15. All but one are carved on boulders; WB12 is carved on bedrock and is probably a multi-period carved panel with the main groove network showing signs of having been pecked with a metal tool. Close to the central orthostat, to N is a thin slab of rock that appears to have been deliberately chocked to lift it to a horizontal position. Panels WB10 and 11 are a closely spaced pair within the enclosure at NNE; panel 17a is a single shallow cup carved on a conspicuous rock at the E termination of the enclosure. Panel WB07 is within the enclosure bank on the W side; WB05 is very close to WB07 just outside the enclosure bank. Approx 3.5m NW of WB07 and 35m due W of the central orthostat just outside the enclosure bank is a thin flat rock that has been chocked to elevate it 29 degrees from the horizontal and facing E, the top of which has been crudely worked to give it a roughly semi-circular upper edge. Panel WB03 is 41m W of WB05 and on the rock-strewn slope of Woofa Bank.    Panels WB08 and WB06 are outside the enclosure to NW approx a5m and 48m respectively. On the NW of the enclosure is a linear arrangement of boulders approx 28m roughly N-S. At N of this feature there are two transverse linear arrangements of boulders, one 18m E-W with a N turning bank/mound at W end, and a shorter length running to SW from the N. The two transverse sections meet at a confusion of boulders, suggesting the robbed-our remains of a possible structure.    Approx. 40 - 70m E of Woofa Bank enclosure is a complex of springs and to N of springs a stone-lined square shaft with a flagstone cover, a water collection sump of probably 19th century construction. At SE 13967 45484, within the spring complex, is a small cairn constructed of small pieces of stone. Panel WB18 is on the NE slope of the spring stream. At the head of a further feeder spring to SW, at approx SE 13932 45422, are two small mounds, one each side of the stream. Panel WB19 is 75m 155 degrees from WB18 on the E sloping side of an artificial small hollow approx 3m x 2m; approx 20m W is a linear rubble bank running approx 16.5m SSW with some stone at N end; 3m E of the S end of this bank is a small semicircular bank approx 4m diameter.    On the N flank of Woofa, on the S side of the enclosure, there is evidence of small scale surface quarrying of bedrock and there is one later 9-10m diameter quarry pit. Within the enclosure at NE there is a lintel-shaped rock that has been cut from bedrock but left on site. From the enclosure, there are extensive long-distance views from NNE through N to ESE across the Wharfe valley to the hills beyond. Views in other directions are limited by Woofa Bank and the sweep of the moorland hills. [CSIRM]"

At the approx centre of the enclosure is a small standing stone, around which are clustered seven carved panels, WB09 and WB12-15. All but one are carved on boulders; WB12 is carved on bedrock and is probably a multi-period carved panel with the main groove network showing signs of having been pecked with a metal tool. Close to the central orthostat, to N is a thin slab of rock that appears to have been deliberately chocked to lift it to a horizontal position. Panels WB10 and 11 are a closely spaced pair within the enclosure at NNE; panel 17a is a single shallow cup carved on a conspicuous rock at the E termination of the enclosure. Panel WB07 is within the enclosure bank on the W side; WB05 is very close to WB07 just outside the enclosure bank. Approx 3.5m NW of WB07 and 35m due W of the central orthostat just outside the enclosure bank is a thin flat rock that has been chocked to elevate it 29 degrees from the horizontal and facing E, the top of which has been crudely worked to give it a roughly semi-circular upper edge. Panel WB03 is 41m W of WB05 and on the rock-strewn slope of Woofa Bank.    Panels WB08 and WB06 are outside the enclosure to NW approx a5m and 48m respectively. On the NW of the enclosure is a linear arrangement of boulders approx 28m roughly N-S. At N of this feature there are two transverse linear arrangements of boulders, one 18m E-W with a N turning bank/mound at W end, and a shorter length running to SW from the N. The two transverse sections meet at a confusion of boulders, suggesting the robbed-our remains of a possible structure.    Approx 40 - 70m E of Woofa Bank enclosure is a complex of springs and to N of springs a stone-lined square shaft with a flagstone cover, a water collection sump of probably 19th century construction. At SE 13967 45484, within the spring complex, is a small cairn constructed of small pieces of stone. Panel WB18 is on the NE slope of the spring stream. At the head of a further feeder spring to SW, at approx SE 13932 45422, are two small mounds, one each side of the stream.

On the N flank of Woofa , on the S side of the enclosure, there is evidence of small scale surface quarrying of bedrock and there is one later 9-10m diameter quarry pit. Within the enclosure at NE there is a lintel-shaped rock that has been cut from bedrock but left on site. From the enclosure, there are extensive long-distance views from NNE through N to ESE across the Wharfe valley to the hills beyond.
