Rock Art in Northumberland
This rock art panel is recorded by NADRAP as being on a slab in deep heather, lying beside a prominent, disturbed cairn. Its motif consists of a shallow, single cup which may be a natural feature. Beckensall had also previously described this panel as having a single cup.
For more information see England's Rock Art entry for ERA-1401 Ray-Sunniside l, which includes NADRAP's notes, Beckensall's description, photographs, a sketch of the rock and its motifs, plus photogrammetry and media from the Beckensall Archive.
The original Beckensall record can be found at Internet Archive: Beckensall 969 Ray-Sunniside l.
This rock art panel is located on Open Access land.
