Rock art on Amersidelaw is a Bronze Age or Iron Age carved stone located in Northumberland, approximately 195 metres north west of Achnacarry Plantation. The monument consists of cup-and-ring markings, a form of rock art characteristic of prehistoric Britain, which were pecked or carved into the natural rock surface. These abstract geometric designs represent significant evidence of ritual or ceremonial activity during the later prehistoric period, though the precise function and dating of such rock carvings remains subject to scholarly interpretation. The site contributes to our understanding of prehistoric artistic expression and territorial or spiritual practices in the northern regions of Britain.
