Portable prehistoric carved rock found by the late Stuart Feather somewhere in the Piper’s Crag area on Rombalds Moor in the 1950s or 1960s. It formed part of his private collection.
Keith Boughey references the stone IAG212a in his ongoing regional database / archive and describes:
“Small, roughly rectangular piece of rock with 1 shallow worn cup’
CSI: Rombalds Moor Project recorded the stone ‘Piper’s Crag 02’ on ERA in 2012, detailing:
‘…The stone has been dressed with vertical edges evident on three sides and the fourth possibly broken off. Whilst the single motif is unremarkable, the fact that it appears centrally on a worked stone reminiscent of something found in walling, makes it an intriguing example.’
It’s now either in storage with Bradford Council or at Manor House Museum, Ilkley.
This decimated model was created from 7 images captured by Richard Stroud in April 2012. The imagery forms part of the HLF funded CSI: Rombalds Moor / Watershed Landscape Project archive.
