Rock Art in Yorkshire (North)
This cup and ring marked rock is featured on The Northern Antiquarian (TNA) - see their entry for Eller Edge (431), Pock Stones Moor, Thruscross, North Yorkshire, which has a photograph, directions for finding the stone nd a brief archaeology & history.
Boughey & Vickermann describe this stone as a “Large triangular rock of smooth gritstone, quarried at SE and sloping into ground at W and N. Three cups on top sloping face.”
England's Rock Art does not yet have any entry for this stone, but Pastscape Monument No. 48490 records three boulders at SE08956148, SE09046150 and SE08986148, the latter of which has cup marks with encircling channels.
See 'sites nearby' for other cup and cup and ring marked rocks in the same immediate area.
