The cup marked rock and round cairn south east of Dobrudden caravan park is a Bronze Age burial monument located in Yorkshire. The site comprises a round cairn, a characteristic form of barrow used for mortuary purposes during the Bronze Age period, accompanied by a cup marked rock bearing a series of shallow, roughly circular depressions created by percussion. Such cup marks represent some of the earliest forms of rock art in Britain and commonly appear in association with Bronze Age funerary contexts, though their precise ritual or symbolic significance remains uncertain. The monument's survival and scheduled protection reflects its archaeological importance as evidence of Bronze Age burial practices and artistic expression in the Yorkshire landscape.
