Rock art on Weetwood Moor is a Neolithic or Bronze Age carved stone panel located on moorland south of Clavering in Northumberland. The site comprises cup-and-ring marks and associated motifs pecked into the natural rock surface, typical of prehistoric rock art traditions found across northern Britain. These carvings demonstrate the artistic and symbolic practices of early prehistoric communities, though their precise chronological placement and ceremonial function remain subjects of archaeological interpretation. The survival of such rock art provides important evidence for understanding the cultural and spiritual life of Neolithic and Bronze Age populations in the North East of England.
