Cup, ring and groove marked rock 15m from south wall of Gab Wood 300m east of Moseley Farm, Cookridge, is a Bronze Age rock carving situated in West Yorkshire. The monument displays characteristic cup and ring marks along with groove motifs, which are typical of prehistoric rock art found across northern Britain and dating to the Bronze Age period.
