Cup marked stone 490m NNE of the triangulation point on Feldom Rigg is a prehistoric rock carving located in Yorkshire, England. The monument consists of a stone surface bearing cup marks, shallow circular depressions that were pecked or ground into the rock face, a form of rock art characteristic of the Neolithic and Bronze Age periods in Britain. Cup marked stones are found across upland regions of northern England and Scotland, though their precise dating and ritual or utilitarian purpose remain subjects of archaeological debate. This example represents an important record of prehistoric activity on the Yorkshire moorlands, where such carved stones cluster in areas of open upland terrain.
