Boulder found in the Blawearie area of Bewick Moor, just over 2 miles SE of Chillingham, Northumberland.
A possible new find by Team 3 during NADRAP recording, the team referenced the stone ‘Blawearie-Bewick Moor N03’ and described on ERA:
“… It has an irregularly-shaped surface which bears two cracks and three elongated depressions thought natural. There is one cup mark at the corner of the rock: it is circular and measures about 0.07 m diameter, is well rounded and quite deep measuring about 0.02 m deep, with no internal tool marks. No other weathering traces are noted here or elsewhere on the rock.”
