Asset Overview

Probable outcrop in a 50 metre long Neolithic Long Cairn within a private plantation on Dour Hill, NW of Rochester, Northumberland. Referenced ‘Dour Hill Long Cairn c’ on the Beckensall Archive (BA) the motifs are described as: ‘About 15 cups, one with a faint penannular, on an almost vertical outcrop at the eastern approach to the mound.’ NADRAP added a record to ERA in 2008, but moss and detritus coverage prevented cross referencing of motifs. Historic England scheduling: https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1009379 ERA & BA info: https://archaeologydataservice.ac.uk/era/section/panel/overview.jsf?eraId=1561 This model just shows a small section of moss covered stone and was created from 3 images captured by Joe Gibson (NADRAP Team 2) in June 2007. The imagery forms part of the full NADRAP archive deposited with Historic England and Northumberland County Council.
