![]() Overview of Weetwood Moor 1b in the foreground and 1a just behind it at NU02332822 looking south towards a small quarry and the trees of North Plantation beyond. |
![]() Weetwood Moor 1a (ERA 136). A central shallow bowl is surrounded by a pair of unfinished or worn rings (the gap is nearest to the camera) with about five cups on either side. |
![]() Weetwood Moor 1b (ERA 134). A wide deep cup with a possible partial ring is linked to much smaller cup by a short groove or channel which in turn is crossed by a shallow groove linking two further cups. Several other depressions on the rock surface including the groove towards the left may also be man-made. |
![]() Weetwood Moor 1d (ERA 133) at NU02332822. The cup in the centre of the picture is surrounded by a raised boss formed by a deep ring with possible traces of another unfinished ring. Just out of shot at the bottom right of the picture are a further pair of eroded cup and ring motifs. |
![]() Weetwood Moor 2e (ERA 150) at NU02282820. A cup has a pair of unfinished angular rings with a short groove linking it to a further cup to the left which may be surrounded by a worn ring. The small depression above the main motif may be natural. |
![]() I'm not sure which stone this is as there are several in the Weetwood Moor 2 group. There seems to be at least two cups near the centre with another possible cup to the left while other depressions are open to guesswork. |
