This rock art panel is recorded as England's Rock Art ERA-2473 Dobrudden South 06, which includes a detailed description, photographs, a plan of the stone and its motifs, plus photogrammetry and a 3D model.
The Northern Antiquarian (TNA) also provides details for this cup and ring marked rock, describing it as "one of my favourite .... on Baildon Moor". See their entry for Crook Farm north, Baildon Moor, West Yorkshire, which has photographs, an early photograph of the carving together with an early drawing, directions on how to find the stone and a brief archaeology and history.
There appears to be no entry on Pastscape or England's Rock Art for this stone, although it is described as having upwards of 50 cup markings, two cup and rings and numerous carved lines.
TNA add: "Along this same ridge there are remains of other prehistoric sites, more cup-and-rings, remains of prehistoric walling and what may be a small cairn circle."
This rock is also recorded in Boughey & Vickerman's "Prehistoric Rock Art of the West Riding Supplement (2018)", pages 86 & 87. The rock is described as being fine gritstone with a roughly triangular exposed surface 1m x 0.55m, embedded in the turf. The Supplement has two photographs, one indicating the location of the stone, the other a close up of its exposed surface with its estimated 57, possibly more, cups.
This rock art panel is located on Open Access land.
