Rock Art in Northumberland
NADRAP describes this panel as being on an irregular diamond-lozenge shaped stone with a range of motifs. Motifs include a number of individual cup marks, with other cups linked by and linking grooves. The panel might be reminiscent, but larger in scale, of a cist stone with rock art. It is not known if this stone is at its original location or from a more recent field clearance.
For more information see England's Rock Art entry for ERA-1552 Scrainwood 1, which includes NADRAP's notes, Beckensall's description, photographs, a panoramic photographs, a sketch of the rock and its motifs, photogrammetry, a VRML model, a QTVR model and media from the Beckensall Archive.
The original Beckensall record can be found at Internet Archive: Beckensall 654 Scrainwood 1.
