What is recorded here
The National Heritage List for England records Rock with three groove and three cup marks in base of wall east of track and 50m south of High Hood Gap, Heyshaw as a scheduled monument. The saved point comes from the centre supplied by the official record. Listing does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Likely dating to the Neolithic or Bronze Age, this rock art may have had ritual or symbolic significance, possibly linked to local landscape features or territorial markers. Cup and groove markings are often associated with ceremonial activity or representations of natural and cosmic forces in prehistoric Britain.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
