Rock Art in Northumberland

This rock art panel was discovered by NADRAP and is recorded as being on a large block which has either been quarried or slipped off naturally and now lies on top of other boulders. It has a possible cup and ring on its western end of the outcrop; a single cup on the massive fallen slab and three cups on a smaller fallen rock just below the main slab. All motifs are heavily eroded.

For more information see England's Rock Art entry for ERA-493 Hunterheugh 12, which includes photographs, a sketch of the rock and its motifs plus photogrammetry.

This rock art panel is located on Open Access land.
