Prehistoric carving found in the Green Gates / Grainings Head area of Rombalds Moor, West Yorkshire.
This stone has a complex design on its northern facing slope, and sits about 110 metres NE of the Badger Stone. Boughey & Vickerman reference it IAG252 in their 2003 publication, ‘Prehistoric Rock Art of the West Riding’ and describe:
‘Medium sized, upstanding, smooth grit rock. N face has two-ringed cup contained by swirling grooves design, other less certain grooves.’
The CSI: Rombalds Moor project referenced the carving ‘Green Gates 02’ on ERA in 2013.
A higher resolution 3D model shows the design is more complex than previously described and incorporates additional rings and grooves.
