Found this

**************
The more elaborate one was discovered in Langdale. It consists of a dozen sets of concentric circles, each up to 50 centimetres across, a triangle of around 50 tiny pick marks, and sets of parallel lines up to one metre in length.

The second engraved panel, found 10 miles to the north-east in the Ullswater Valley, is different in style and consists of 11 parallel lines and 300 circular depressions, each one five centimetres in diameter and up to two centimetres deep. Three smaller rocks nearby also feature dozens more depressions, three of which are surrounded by single circles.

One of the Arcaeologists working at the Axe Factory is Prof. Richard Bradley ( [email protected] ) Perhaps he knows where they are.

There are some pictures in this document. It looks like they're down a cave somewhere

Hope this helps a little. Anyway, the descriptions sound amazing! Wish I was there.
