sketchfab

Large outcropping discovered near Wooler Golf Club, situated to the southeast of Doddington, Northumberland. Measuring around 5m x 2.5m in size, this relatively flat exposure lies between two Iron Age camps on Dod Law. Documented by Tate in the mid-19th century, the surface features a variety of motifs characteristic of the North Atlantic repertoire. In addition to traditional cup and ring patterns, numerous sub-rectangular enclosing grooves are also present on the site. Recorded as ‘Dod Law Main Rock A’ in the Beckensall Archive, it was added to ERA in 2008: https://archaeologydataservice.ac.uk/era/section/panel/overview.jsf?eraId=49. The carving's status within Historic England's scheduling is unclear, as it falls between designated areas: https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1002946. A 3D model of the site was created from 16 stereo pairs captured by Kevin Malloy in June 2007 using a 5mp Nikon Coolpix 5400, and forms part of the NADRAP / ERA archive.
