Rock Art in Yorkshire (North)
This rock art panel (formerly recorded as IAG638c/IAG638d) was discovered in Bryan's Wood, adjacent to Eastwoods Farm. Now recorded as IAG638e in Boughey & Vickerman's "Prehistoric Rock Art of the West Riding Supplement (2018)", page 224, this rock is described as being "a large slab of rock dressed along its slightly curving western side up to 4m long, 1.5-2.0m wide and 0.76m high, forming part of a collapsed drystone wall that runs north-south close to the western perimeter of the wood. The remains of an uprooted birch tree and debris … partly obscure some of the carvings on its flat horizontal face".
Motifs include a clear cup and ring; a cluster of six small cups and a small groove; a cup and larger ring (much worn); a small cup and a cluster of up to 9-10 mostly small cups. The Supplement includes a photograph of the rock in its landscape context, together with photographs of the motifs.
Please note Bryan's Wood is privately owned and permission must be sought from the owners before entering the wood.
