Large boulder with prehistoric carvings unearthed on Addingham Crag, a rugged outcrop in Rombalds Moor, West Yorkshire. This enormous, rectangular block boasts vertical sides and measures 3.1 x 2.5 x 2.6 meters. First documented in the 19th century, locals have long referred to it as 'Addingham Crag Stone'. Boughey & Vickerman's 2003 publication 'Prehistoric Rock Art of the West Riding' assigns IAG210 to this site and describes it as: 'Large, high, rectangular, rough grit rock. The top surface features intricate carvings with 49 cups, nine of which have rings, grooves, and a cup on a boss.' CSI:Rombalds Moor added record 'Addingham Crag 01' to ERA in 2013.
