Ecclesall Woods

Cup and Ring Marks / Rock Art
Ecclesall Woods (Cup and Ring Marks / Rock Art) by spencer The hidden gem in a city wood. I d o love this stone..it knows what I think. The moss is growing back. Please let it. I wish I could put do not disturb signs on the footpaths nearby, but that would only encourage the oppsite. A quiet treasure. And a photograph of it would make a lovely front cover for a book....but no image details within. Please, only go if you need, not want, OK?

A lovely stone Spencer. Next time we visit stepsons in Sheffield we could p'raps go see it. I'll be very careful. Posted by carol27

For the record, I found it blind. No map, no directions, no pic views, nothing. Truth. I didn't know what I'd found, whether the known stone or a hidden secret. Those are big woods. Try and comprehend my feelings when it called me over on my wanderings x spencer Posted by spencer

Go in bluebell time. Gorgeous, magical, mysterious places even without this stone or whatever even in winter slumber. You may find me still awandering... after twenty five years gardening week in, week out at their very edge I am finally, shamefacedly, joining these 'before time' Woods Friends.... Lucky Sheffield. spencer Posted by spencer
