Rock Art in Northumberland

NADRAP tells us this stone block had been trimmed for use as a building stone and bears a small central cup with three irregular penannular rings. The squaring of the stone has cut across the outer ring. Find spot is simply recorded as "From wall in Wooler - Wooler Cottage."

For more information see England's Rock Art entry for ERA-1908 Wooler Cottage, which includes NADRAP's notes, Beckensall's brief archive notes and description, plus 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 351 Wooler Cottage.

Please note this stone was donated to the Museum of Antiquities, Newcastle (now the Great North Museum).

Note: Have you seen this rock art panel? Do you have a more accurate grid reference for its find spot, photographs or information to add?
