Cup and ring marked rock in Wharfemeadows Park is a Bronze Age rock art panel located near Newall Hall in Yorkshire. The monument consists of a natural rock surface decorated with cupules (small circular depressions) and concentric ring carvings, a form of rock art characteristic of the Bronze Age in Britain, particularly the second millennium BCE.
