Barningham Moor 94

View through Europeana Collections
An almost square, earth fast stone with six depressions. All of the depressions are irregular, shallow and not typical of rock art in the area. Therefore, the markings are thought to be a result of natural weathering along lines of weakness in the stones cement. This may have been recorded during a previous English Heritage survey, but the exact stone was difficult to determine.
