Cup and Ring marked rock, Cambret Hill
I revisited this cup and ring marked rock, also known as the Penny Stone (seen here: Link ) to try to get a clearer picture using off camera flash to highlight the markings, with only limited success. This was the best of several attempts. There is a central cup and ring surrounded by a spiral. A channel runs out from the cup through the ring and spiral.
