Rock Art in Northumberland
This rock art panel is recorded by NADRAP as being amongst a group of more than 15 cairns, closely assembled on the hillside facing into the valley with Cheviot on the west and the coast to its east. Housey Crags rises up behind. NADRAP notes that this rock art panel is carved on granite rock, rather than softer sandstone. The panel is has definite cups which are roughly formed, with potentially an arc on one of the cups. Beckensall also describes the panel as having two cups.
For more information see England's Rock Art entry for ERA-1064 Langleeford, which includes NADRAP's notes, photographs, panoramic photograph, a sketch of the rock and its motifs, plus photogrammetry, a QTVR model and media from the Beckensall Archive.
The original Beckensall record can be found at Internet Archive: Beckensall 1119 Langleeford.
This rock art panel is located on Open Access land.
