This recumbent standing-stone shaped boulder with cup marks features on The Northern Antiquarian (TNA) - see their entry for High Green (407), Skyreholme, North Yorkshire. TNA give us directions for finding the boulder together with a photograph, a sketch and a brief archaeology and history.
TNA add: "in Boughey & Vickerman’s (2003) survey they give it the wrong grid reference, though describe it correctly as a “long flat rock of irregular outline (with) fourteen to sixteen cups.” A cluster of other carvings are nearby, though some have been destroyed through mining operations."
This stone is also recorded as Pastscape Monument No. 1080864, which says: "Cup marked gritstone rock 26m north of the track from New Dam to Black Hill Road. The carving consists of 14 to 16 cups, It is part of a larger group of cup and ring marked rocks. "
The boulder is also scheduled - see Historic England List ID 1015102, which adds: "The monument includes a carved gritstone rock, 1.7m x 0.8m x 0.2m."
