Asset Overview

Boulder found in the Brown Hill area of Barningham Moor, County Durham. This ground level stone was first reported to Richard Stroud in May 2009. Unfortunately, it was found too late to be recorded by NADRAP as the project had ceased in August the previous year. For the purposes of ERAA, the stone has been referenced 'Barningham Moor 149'. A subsequent excavation by Paul Brown recorded the full extent of the stone and its motifs. He found the rock to be dome shaped with upwards of 13 cups, some displaying tool marks. In March 2019, the rock had once again completely disappeared below the turf. Model created from 6 images captured by Richard Stroud in May 2009. Some of the tool marks can quite clearly be seen.
