The visible area of this exposed outcrop currently (2018) measures an area approx. 4m x 3.5m (2018) and can be found on Gled Law (private farmland), just over 1400 metres west of West Horton, Northumberland.
This is probably one of the most well-known rock art panels in England, having been first recoded by Tate in the mid-19th century. The rock has numerous cups, some of which have multiple partial rings or penannulars, in addition to broad grooves. A number of motifs are faint, and can only be seen in oblique lighting. Not all are picked out on the photogrammetry model.
Recorded as ‘Gled Law 3’ on the Beckensall Archive, it was added to ERA by NADRAP in 2008: https://archaeologydataservice.ac.uk/era/section/panel/overview.jsf?eraId=89
