Prehistoric carving found in drystone walling on private farmland in Eldwick, West Yorkshire. This is one of a number of carvings notified to Stuart Feather in the early 1960s, but wasn’t confirmed or published until Keith Boughey investigated Feather’s archives in 2013. CSI: Rombalds Moor project referenced the stone ‘Glovershaw Farm 03’ on ERA in 2013, describing:
‘…Motifs consist of a cup with a 4cm diameter centrally placed on the rock’s steeply sloping southern face, with a worn, shallow extremely worn penannular ring of indeterminate width around it, and a second cup 5cm diameter at the rock’s NE upper vertex, with a partial ring which is also worn and disappears at the rock’s edge.’
