Cup, ring and groove marked rock 310m west of East Loups's, Cotherstone Moor is a Bronze Age rock art site located on Cotherstone Moor in Yorkshire. The monument consists of a natural rock surface decorated with cup marks, concentric rings, and linear grooves characteristic of prehistoric rock art found across northern Britain. Such rock carvings are typically dated to the Bronze Age, though their precise chronology remains uncertain, and they may represent ritual or territorial markers created by communities inhabiting the upland areas. The site's survival on the exposed moorland landscape provides evidence of prehistoric artistic and cultural practices in the region.
