This book presents a wealth of information on the rock art of the
dales that straddle the ridge of the Northern Pennines and Cumbria
fells, the authors present details of their new discoveries
together with an up to date account of the known archaeology of the
area in a comprehensive gazetteer of sites and locations. Hand
drawn three-dimensional illustrations highlight the major panels of
rock art in the key Northern valleys and Dales that span the three
counties of North Yorkshire, Durham and Cumbria including
Swaledale, Wensleydale and Great Langdale. Rock art, its situation
within the prehistoric landscape and relationship to other
archaeological features is clearly discussed broadening perceptions
of our predecessors' life within these celebrated northern dales.
Independent archaeologists Paul and Barbara Brown have been
researching and studying British rock art over three decades and
contributed a considerable number of new sites to the
archaeological record. The landscape of the Northern Dales and
Cumbria is familiar home territory, their dedication and commitment
to the subject has been acknowledged in the world of amateur and
professional archaeology.
