Cup and groove-marked rock on Rivock is a prehistoric rock art panel situated in Yorkshire. The stone surface bears a series of cupules, small circular depressions created by repeated percussion, alongside linear groove marks that together constitute a form of rock art typical of the Neolithic and Bronze Age periods. Such cup and groove markings are characteristic of prehistoric ritual or symbolic expression, though their precise purpose remains uncertain. The panel's location west of a deep channel has ensured its preservation and continued visibility as a monument of archaeological significance dating to the later prehistoric period.
