Cup, ring and groove marked rock in wall 220m south of Far High Westcliff is a Bronze Age carved stone panel located in Yorkshire, England. The rock bears a series of prehistoric cup marks, concentric rings, and linear grooves characteristic of ritual or symbolic rock art created during the Bronze Age period. Such marked stones are thought to have held ceremonial or territorial significance within Bronze Age communities, though their precise function remains debated amongst scholars. The stone's incorporation into a later field wall demonstrates the longstanding presence of this monument in the landscape and its reuse by subsequent generations.
