The Idol Stone (Cup Marked Stone)

The Idol Stone PRAWR 322 SE 13265 45943 is part of a small group of cup and ring stones within 5 metres of each other, which includes PRAWR 321 SE 13265 45942, PRAWR 323 SE 13265 45944, and PRAWR 234 SE 13265 45945. I have included photos of these here, with explanatory notes.

PRAWR 255 (Cup Marked Stone)

This is an isolated rock best found using a GPS SE 11417 46040. It is conical and has marks on all the three sides. Sorry I forgot the measuring stick and compass :-(

PRAWR 254 (Cup Marked Stone)

This is an isolated boulder best found with a GPS SE 11330 46111
PRAWR has it as "possibly natural" but I like it, so I marked and photographed it.

PRAWR 249 (Cup Marked Stone)

This is an isolated boulder best found with a GPS SE 11007 46451

PRAWR 245 (Cup and Ring Marks / Rock Art)

This is an isolated boulder best found with a GPS SE 10767 46492

PRAWR 242 (Cup and Ring Marks / Rock Art)

This is an isolated boulder best found using a GPS SE 10572 46336

PRAWR 241 (Cup Marked Stone)

241 SE 10527 46616

This is an isolated boulder, best found with a GPS. PRAWR has this as doubtful, but it looks OK to me.

PRAWR 238 (Cup Marked Stone)

This is an isolated rock best found with a GPS SE 10474 46635 surveyed by English Heritage to 1 m

PRAWR 230-233 (Cup Marked Stone)

SE 10377 47027, SE 10377 47027, SE 10380 47027, SE 10382 47027.

These are a row of stones at the top of Panorama Woods/Rocks, about 10 yards north of Panorama Drive. I am sure that I have identified 232 and 233 from PRAWR but 231 and 230 are in the correct position, but I have failed to match rock shape and depressions to PRAWR.
