Is that a carving halfway up?

:) Just thought the same yesterday. Also wonder what it is. 99% sure it is no genuine prehistoric rock art. Possibly something from the last centuries. Always hard to decide from a photo.

It looks different from that angle, doesn't it? What does Captain think .. did you notice it on the day, Martyn?

Just hunted this down in my "library", ie found the relevant book in its box.

L'un a des fentes (naturelles) se croisant a angle droit, ce qui ressemble fort a un svastika. Celui-ci aurait été lancé par le diable qui se battait avec St Ourzal

Which Mr Google translates to "One has slots (natural) intersecting at right angles, what looks like a swastika. It would have been launched by the devil who was fighting with St Ourzal"
