Cup and ring marked stone 440m NNE of the triangulation point on Feldom Rigg is a Neolithic or Bronze Age rock art panel located on the moorlands of Yorkshire. The stone bears the characteristic cup and ring motifs typical of prehistoric rock art found throughout northern Britain, with cupules surrounded by concentric rings pecked into the rock surface. Such markings are generally dated to between 3000 and 1500 BC, though their precise chronology and ritual or domestic purpose remain subjects of scholarly debate. The monument represents an important example of the rock art tradition practiced by prehistoric communities in the upland regions of northern England.
