Cup
and ring marked stone at Old Bewick

The
very earliest art of the region are the hundreds of spirals hewn into
the very stones of the high moorlands.
No-one knows their original purpose, but perhaps, like similar spiral
carvings of the Australian aborigines they represent 'spirit' maps celebrating
the creation of the land by ancestors.
