That was a good page added. Tiompan, any views on this (I know you've only got a couple of crappy pictures to go on)?

Up on the eastern ridge of the Black Mountains, in a cairn. There are cupmarks at sites to the north (around Kinsham, Radnorshire) and to the east (Harold's Stones at Trellech).
It might easily be natural, but it's oddly symmetrical and on the corner of a block where erosion would seem a bit strange.

Lots of these patterns (particularly spirals, zig zags and chevrons) appear in the edges of message pads when people doodle while on the phone/in meetings. I'm not sure that most of the people are taking hallucinogens at work (I could be wrong), so isn't an equally plausible explanation that these are the sort of patterns people make when decorating things?

I drink an awful lot of machine coffee and was listening to Galaxie 500 today, it's sort of the same.
And well done to our level headed TMA Ed. ;)

and why do people decorate things?, the images seem deep rooted into the brain itself, people "tranced" out doodling do the same designs, people see the same designs with migraines, from fasting and meditation and when your trippin, which do you think they were doing at the great stone circles and chambered cairns??? do it at the sites and then you'll know yourself...

People like to decorate, to apply forms and patterns to plain surfaces. It doesn't have to involve drugs. Or I'm missing something fundamental about Laura Ashley.

Never fair to judge from pics TSC . particularly if negatively . if pushed I would say no . Despite the rock being portable and there being a nearby possible cairn and portables being found in cairns although not in that area afaik phew . It looks a bit big and I wonder why another face wasn't chosen . Single cups are also often the most dificult and they are usually appended "possible " maybe the best bet in the circumstances .

Mushrooms not drugs, very natural and given by nature to be used to reach supernature, stop now as your clearly out of your depth, there's nothing wrong with not knowing about something.
