Summary edit

Description
English: Situated on Woodhouse Crag on Ilkley Moor, the stone has a double outline of a swastika with ten cups fitting within the five curved arms. The design is similar to art of the Celtic Iron Age period but could have been carved as early as the Bronze Age, as with other markings in the vicinity. What the stone's design means is unclear, although it is known that in many ancient civilizations the swastika is recognised as a symbol relating to the sun.
