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 1960s, but not confirmed or published until Keith Boughey investigated Feather’s archives in 2013. CSI: Rombalds Moor project referenced the stone ‘Glovershaw Farm 04’ on ERA in 2013, describing:
‘…Panel is a broken off, reused portion of glacially deposited coarse-grained sandstone boulder measuring approximately 0.7m x 0.4m x 0.6m high. Carving consists of a single cup with 5-6cm diameter placed on the stones apex. On the SW broken face is a trace fossil, possibly of a burrow. Just over a 1m to the NW in the wall is the other main half of the boulder with matching fossil.’
