Me and my lad were up at Upleatham today having a mooch around and admiring the bluebells. We stopped at the barrow to scoff our sarnies which I set out on this rock. As we were eating I noticed some grooves on the rock that didn't appear to be natural weathering. Hmmm I wonder! with some effort I flipped the rock over and there they were..6 cups as described by Graeme C on his crackin' website. Unfortunately I didn't have my camera with me so I made a quick sketch and decided to return later with the camera. When I got home I couldn't settle so I grabbed the camera and returned. As well as photos I also took a rubbing of the stone which revealed the six cups and four inter-connecting grooves.
