Roos Carr figures

The figures were found in 1836 by labourers digging a ditch at Roos Carr.

Male and female figures are depicted with what appears to be a removable penis present in the collection.

Similarly dated wooden figures are known from at least six other sites in Britain and Ireland.

[3] The figures have been on display in Hull and East Riding Museum and its antecedents.

From February to July 2022 they were included as part of 'The World of Stonehenge' exhibition at the British Museum.
