Rock Art in Yorkshire (West)

This rock art panel is recorded as having three cups in a line, two in a pair at the north north east end of the rock and one at the south south west end. This boulder lies close to the ground; in 2003, the Ilkley Archaeology Group thought they saw traces of rings around the cups. For more information see England's Rock Art entry for ERA-2349 White Wells 06, which includes a description, photographs, a plan of the rock and its motifs, plus photogrammetry.

This rock art panel is located on Open Access land.
