Possible prehistoric carved rock found on Burley Moor, Rombalds Moor, West Yorkshire. Identified during surveys by the CSI: Rombalds Moor team in 2013, this rock was recorded ‘Burley Moor 02’ and added to ERA later that year. The team recorded: ‘Irregularly-shaped sandstone boulder measuring 1.9m x 1.15m x 0.32m high. The NE edge of the boulder is embedded in the side of a gentle southward facing slope. There are two shallow cup-like depressions 9cm apart on the NW corner of the rock, on a roughly N-S alignment. The cups are not prominent and might be natural features.’ Keith Boughey subsequently referenced the stone IAG358a on his regional archive.
