Cup and groove marked rock, 310m north east of the shooting shelter in Middleton Moor Enclosure is a Bronze Age rock art site located on Middleton Moor in Yorkshire, England. The rock surface bears shallow cupule and linear groove markings characteristic of prehistoric rock art traditions of northern Britain, typically dated to the Bronze Age period. Such marked rocks are thought to have held ritual or territorial significance for the Bronze Age communities who inhabited the upland regions of the Pennines. The site's remote moorland location places it within a wider landscape of prehistoric activity and settlement patterns documented across the Yorkshire uplands.
