Cup and Ring Stone Carving on Baildon Moor

View this post on Instagram

I noticed this cup and ring prehistoric stone carving near the top of the hill when out walking in the evening. First time I have noticed one but apparently the area has a particularly high concentration of them (lots more impressive than this one) and also has remains of stone circles and burial monuments. Late Neolithic and Bronze Age periods (c.2800-500 BC. Unknown meaning. #cupandringmarks #prehistoricart #bronzeage #stonecarving #neolithic #baildonmoor #baildonhill #trigpoint
