Burial cairn (since enhanced by modern walkers) about 30m SW of the titchy stone. One hell of a good burial spot for anyone who had a thing about Simonside whilst they were alive.

‘Natural’ cup? I have serious doubts, despite Mssrs Hzssledine and Haszeldine claiming this to be the case.

Roadside boulder again. Handy foothold, convenient handhold, or nationally signifcant evidence of prehistoric activity? All three I suspect.
