Cup marked stone 565m north of the triangulation point on Feldom Rigg is a Bronze Age rock art panel located in Yorkshire, England. The monument consists of a natural rock surface decorated with cup marks, the characteristic cupule motifs that are among the earliest forms of rock art in Britain, typically dating to the Bronze Age period. Cup marked stones are distributed across upland regions of northern England and represent ritual or ceremonial activity by prehistoric communities, though their precise functions remain subject to archaeological interpretation. The survival of such carved stones on exposed moorland provides valuable evidence of Bronze Age settlement patterns and artistic expression in the Pennine landscape.
