Hull and East Riding Museum submitted by Runemage on 20th Aug 2011. Roos Carr Figures. If there was an award for the most strange and haunting exhibit, I think this one would win hands down. The quartzite eyes in these polished yew figures' detailed faces seem to return your gaze.

This site confuses me a little, you have 2 fairly large flat panels of rock with various carvings, ranging from simple cup markings to the more elaborate design you see in this photo. The confusing bit is the different amounts of erosion on carvings that are within a few feet of each other, some are nearly completely worn, others still quite clear & sharp. Of course this could be down to erosion from the massing hoards feet & the original dep...

Log Text: Very accessible and beautiful site in the woods. We could have done with some directions, so here goes... you need to stop in a lay by on the left coming from Evora, cross road to rhs and look for a kind of gap in barbed wire fence with red and white sign. Climb over wire fence follow path into woods about 100m max.Site is impressive with one very large stone and about 30 others. Some campers have treated it inconsiderately with toilet paper etc.
