    Hi folks!

    Just a quickie to show what we found today on one of our ambles. This was the best of the cup&rings we came across on the outskirts of Keighley, not previously listed in the archaeo-records. There are around 20 cups, various lines and what seems like a cup-and-ring on the stone. We're gonna go back up there in the coming few days to get better images and a more complete profile of the stone. Hopee some of you like the little fella!

    Not bad izzit? We'll get a decent drawing and other images in the coming weeks & I'll add the data on the TNA. We need to dig some of the rock back a bit further as there may be more of the design under the turf.
