Middleton Moor (437)
Middleton Moor (437) submitted by rich32 : Middleton Moor, nr Ilkley, North Yorkshire SE1078051486. Carved gritstone rock, situated near the tack on Long Ridge. This is nos 437 in Boughey & Vickermans 'Prehistoric Rock Art of the West Riding'. They describe it as having about 13 cups some linked by grooves, I think I lost my eye for cups on this one.

Cup and Ring marks / Rock Art in Yorkshire (North)

For more information visit our Middleton Moor main page.

The Northern Antiquarian (TNA) features a page for this cup and ring stone - see their entry for Middleton Moor Carving 437, North Yorkshire, which gives directions for finding the stone, together with a drawing of the stone and its motifs and a photograph showing the stone right besides the footpath.

This stone is also scheduled as part of a group of three stones on Historic England List ID 1014159, an extract which relates to this stone reads: "The monument includes three carved rocks immediately adjacent to one another. They are located on Long Ridge on Middleton Moor, on a gentle south facing slope south of the track along the ridge ... The easternmost rock carving (accurate NGR SE1078051486) consists of c.13 cup marks and several grooves, with some grooves interconnecting the cups."
