"unless it is found by a Pro Archaeologist it won't officialy be recongnised"

Sad but true. A few months ago I was in touch with the Durham County Archaeologist about cup-marks I found near my home on Fendrith Hill. I informed her that respected rock-art experts (Stan Beckenshall and Graeme Chappell) had seen pictures of them and thought that they were the real thing - as far as they could tell from photos, at any rate. But exactly nothing has happened - she went on holiday, telling me she'd get back to me when she got back to work, and in the several months since then there's been nothing but silence, and the site has surely not been added to the SMR (unless it went on in the last fortnight or so, anyway, which somehow I doubt). The whole incident has really put me off even trying to get such sites officially recognised...
