Rock Art in Northumberland

Beckensall described this rock art panel as having seven cups but NADRAP were unable to locate this panel in the field. The grid reference given is generic, based on the location of the other panels on Football Cairn.

For more information, including a more detailed description, see England's Rock Art entry for ERA-1159 Football Cairn c, which includes Beckensall's description, a drawing of the rock and its motifs plus a slide from the Beckensall Archive. The original Beckensall record can be found at Internet Archive: Beckensall 514 Football Cairn c.

This rock art panel is located on Open Access land.

Note: Do you know where this rock art panel is located? Do you have an accurate grid reference, photographs, illustrations or information to add?
