Outcrop on private farmland on West Hills, to the west of Rothbury, Northumberland.
This area of carved outcrop is positioned north of the other and approx. 40 metres east of the multivallate hillfort. Referenced ‘West Hills 1e’ on the Beckensall Archive (BA) and subsequently added to ERA by NADRAP in 2008, both projects describe similar motifs. The BA notes:
“A cup and ring with a touching cup; from the ring is an open ring at the centre of a cup.”

The model was created from 6 stereo pairs captured by Joe Gibson & Keith Elliott of NADRAP Team 3 in May 2006. The imagery forms part of the full NADRAP archive deposited with Historic England & Northumberland County Council.
