This rock art panel has been recorded in Boughey & Vickerman's "Prehistoric Rock Art of the West Riding Supplement (2018)", pages 235 to 237 inclusive. Located above Settle in North Yorkshire, this panel was first reported by Paul Brown of Darlington in 1995 and reported to Dr. Boughey in 2004. The rock is described as lying in rough pasture in a broad, raised flat valley north of Warrendale Knots, overlooking Sugar Loaf Hill to the east of Settle. The Supplement includes a map of the location of the panel, a photograph showing its context in the landscape, close ups of its motifs, plus a drawing of the panel.
The panel is described as being 62m south of the last in a set of field walls west of the public right of way and 9m west of the footpath. The rock "is a low, flat slab measuring approximately 1.15m by 1.05m by 20cms thick. It is dark blue-grey Silurian gritstone above the turf and a fine grained pinkish brown below. Its exposed upper surface "carries a profusion of what appears to be small, shallow, very worn cups".
