Notes
"There appear to be eight circular cupmarks on the south-west corner of Cuckoo Rock in the Deancombe valley; apparently in pairs. Three pairs are arranged horizontally with a smaller pair just above them arranged vertically. Six of the marks measure approximately 5cm diameter by 2cm deep. The remaining two marks measure approximately 2cm diameter by 1cm deep. The carver likely stood on a boulder situated below to mark the rock. Reported to archaeologist at Dartmoor National Park authority who has visited the site (21/11/2022) and agrees with potential interpretation."
