Cup and ring marked rock on Tod Crag is a Bronze Age rock art panel located in Northumberland. The stone bears a series of cup marks and concentric ring carvings, which represent a characteristic form of prehistoric rock art found across upland Britain during the Bronze Age period, roughly between 2000 and 500 BCE. Such markings are thought to have held ritual or ceremonial significance for the communities that created them, though their precise purpose remains subject to scholarly debate. The rock's position on the crag demonstrates the importance of elevated, prominent locations in the ritual landscape of prehistoric Northumberland.
