High Chesters Rock Art submitted by durhamnature
High Chesters Rock Art Rock Art in Northumberland

Details in Stan Beckensall's excellent book, "Prehistoric Rock Art In Northumberland".

The stone was found in 1859, lost, dug up again in 1933 and re-buried. Fortunately we have a picture from George Tate's History of Alnwick.
