Cup marked stone 620m south of Jenny's Plantation is a prehistoric rock art monument located in Yorkshire, England. The stone bears cup marks, a form of Bronze Age rock carving consisting of circular cupules pecked into the rock surface, which represents a widespread tradition of ritual or territorial marking across northern Britain during the Bronze Age. Such cup-marked stones are typically dated to the second and third millennia before the present, though their precise chronology and symbolic significance remain matters of scholarly debate. The monument survives as an archaeological record of early metalworking communities' engagement with the landscape through non-utilitarian stone carving.
