So those two years studying Remote Sensing, at Northumbria, weren't wasted !
You've not seen the cupmarked steps, by the railway bridge, on the way in to the High Level Bridge, yet. They're with some Ballistae, believed to be Roman, and are not far from where the Roman castle is supposed to have been. Pons Aelius is directly below, beneath the Swing Bridge, and I had supposed the stone steps to have been late-Medieval - now I'm considering whether they may be Roman. It would make the cupmarks, on them, a few hundred years older, perhaps.
Medieval cupmarks ain't nothing compared to my Holymire stone circle or, indeed, the Blackstone.
