Summary
| Description |
English: Ancient waymark? One of many cup and ring marks on Weetwood Moor. A suggestion of the purpose of these ancient carvings is that the radial line indicated direction to the next important point of a journey, with the size and number of rings representing the distance. (See also 1248687.) The radial line here points towards Doddington Moor (about 3.5km NNW) where there are many more cup and ring marks, and signs of ancient settlement including a stone circle 905513. |
