Barningham Moor 107 (Nov 2006)

sketchfab

Stone discovered in a dense cluster of carvings north of Eel Hill on Barningham Moor in County Durham. This stone was referenced as number 29 in Beckensall and Laurie's 1998 publication "Prehistoric Rock Art of County Durham, Swaledale and Wensleydale". The team that recorded this site added it to the ERA database in 2008 under the name "Barningham Moor 107". Upon examination, they noted that the rock appears to be part of what might be a cairn. Four cups are clustered together at its center, while two single cups stand nearby. However, all of these features are irregularly shaped, making it difficult to determine whether they were formed naturally or artificially. Most of the stone is covered in turf. Upon closer inspection, the carvings appear artificial, and there may even be a ring present.
