Rock Art in Northumberland
This rock art panel is recorded by Beckensall using notes from Mr. Davidson (1933-34): "another rock built into the rampart, its flattish sides packed at varying points with flat stone slabs, particularly on the east side. The rock was re-covered after men with crowbars had tilted it. He said that it was not in its original position; his drawing shows a series of four concentric penannulars around a cup and other cups, with the crowbars in position. It has either been removed, or remains covered up in the wood." NADRAP have been unable to trace its current location.
For basic information see England's Rock Art entry for ERA-668 North Plantation C. The original Beckensall record can be found at Internet Archive: Beckensall 178 North Plantation c.
Please note this rock art panel is located on private land, and we understand this panel may have been buried since the NADRAP survey to protect it.
