Asset Overview

NT 1980 3145. Canmore 49890 - 'On the ESE flank of Posso Craig, at the margin of an area of boulder-strewn ground and associated with what may be the denuded remains of a cairn, there is an earthfast boulder which has, on its upper face, the pecked and incised outline of a V-shaped figure with central bar and at the edge of the stone, a dumb-bell shaped hollow. A second stone, immediately downslope, bears the incised outline of a more complex figure consisting of a straight base-line and, above, a sinuous and arcing curved line, while between the two there is an oval ring symbol and an incomplete ring symbol which is cut by the edge of the stone.' On examination of the 3D imagery the markings on the stone have been determined to be natural geological anomalies. Three other stones in the immediate vicinity had similar grooves, hollows and depressions. ScRAP ID 1115
