Location Notes: The panel is situated on a N facing slope of Carrot Hill and NE shoulder of Dodd Hill. It is a sandstone earthfast boulder measuring 1.45 x 0.77 x 0.2m. The area is located in extensive heather moorland on a peat peat bed. The boulder has deep erosion around one of the projecting faces.
Panel Notes: On the flatter upmost surface there are at least 15 shallow depressions of different diameters and depths which run into the deeper erosion channels. None of these depressions has a ring, peck marks or groove and some or all may be natural features rather than cupmarks.
