Cup and ring marked rock 42m east of Rivock Edge triangulation pillar is a prehistoric rock art site located in Yorkshire, England. The monument consists of a natural rock surface bearing cup marks and ring carvings, motifs characteristic of Bronze Age rock art traditions in Britain, typically dated to the second millennium BCE.
