Rock art on Weetwood Moor, 487m south of Clavering, is a Neolithic or Bronze Age carved rock surface located in Northumberland. The site consists of cup and ring markings pecked into the natural rock face, a form of rock art common across northern Britain during the prehistoric period. Such motifs, typically comprising circular depressions surrounded by concentric rings, remain undated with precision, though they are generally attributed to the Neolithic or Bronze Age on typological grounds. The site contributes to the significant concentration of prehistoric rock art found across the Northumberland landscape, reflecting the ritual or territorial practices of early prehistoric communities.
