Hi Ethelwulf this is a fantastic picture; could you provide a new site entry so we can see exactly where it is? Many thanks, Tim :o)

Thanks for the encouragement Tim - much appreciated. This site is at Chatton Park Hill, North Northumberland, near Wooler. This area, just east of the Cheviot hills, is a very rich source of numerous 'cup and ring' carvings. Grid Ref: NU 07390 29244.

Thanks Ethelwulf - it already had a site entry, and a bit of work has tied it all up nicely. Cheers :o)

another excellent image...this one my second best, with the contrast between the color of the rock in the foreground, the nearby grasses and then the mountains in the back.
