I have visited· I would like to visit
SolarMegalith visited on 3rd Oct 2013 - their rating: Cond: 4 Amb: 3 Access: 4 According to NADRAP recordings the mtoifs are in good condition, but during my visit they were covered with moss.
Extensive decorations of this panel include cups with multiple rings and gutters, cups with penannulars and simple cup-marks. Unfortunately, during my visit the panel was completely covered with moss and I could not record any of the motifs.
For more information see England's Rock Art entry for ERA-169 North Plantation B, which includes a description, notes by Beckensall from February 1973, photographs, sketches of the rock and its motifs, plus photogrammetry, a VRML model and media from the Beckensall Archive.
The original Beckensall record can be found at Internet Archive: Beckensall 177 North Plantation b.
Please note this rock art panel is located on private land, and it is understood the panel may have since been buried by the landowner to protect it.
