White Caterthun cup marked boulder

The White Caterthun is a hill by Edzell, Scotland which is crowned by a massive stonewalled fort measuring about 140m by 60m internally within a pair of walls, the inner measuring about 12m in thickness and up to 3m in height with the outer wall some 6m in thickness. Outside the fort further lines of defence can be seen, including a rampart with internal quarry ditch and further enclosing banks lower down the slopes. On the west side of the fort between the stone walls and the outer rampart there is a large boulder measuring about 2m by 1m, which bears about seventy cup-markings. The boulder has been broken in two at one point and joined with metal staples which have now gone and concrete. Canmore ID 35007 SCRAP ID 573 Location OS Grid Ref: NO 54730 66070
