Cup marked stone 495m south east of Jenny's Plantation is a Neolithic or Bronze Age rock art monument located in Yorkshire, England. The stone bears cup marks, a form of prehistoric rock art consisting of small cupular depressions pecked or ground into the stone surface, which are characteristic of ritual or ceremonial sites from the third and second millennia before Christ. Such cup marked stones are distributed across northern Britain and represent an important category of portable or in situ rock art, though their precise function remains subject to scholarly debate. The site's survival and official designation reflect its significance as evidence of prehistoric artistic and possibly ritualistic activity in the Yorkshire landscape.
