Rock Art in Northumberland

This rock art panel is recorded by NADRAP as being on a flat slab, mostly buried in turf, probably part of a cairn and surrounded by larger boulders, some set up on their ends. Under the turf there are three cups, two with prominent peck marks, and one rough groove. Another cup can be found near the western edge of the rock.

For more information see England's Rock Art entry for ERA-479 Hunterheugh 6b, which includes a description, photographs, a sketch of the rock and its motifs, plus photogrammetry. This rock art panel is not recorded on the Beckensall Archive.

This rock art panel is located on Open Access land.
