Rock art on Weetwood Moor is a Neolithic or Bronze Age carved rock panel located in Northumberland, England. The site comprises cup-and-ring markings and associated motifs pecked into natural rock outcrops, a distinctive form of rock art characteristic of prehistoric northern Britain. Such carvings, typically dating between the late Neolithic and Bronze Age periods, remain poorly understood in terms of their precise function and cultural meaning, though they are thought to have held ceremonial or symbolic significance for their creators. The Weetwood Moor examples form part of a wider distribution of similar rock art across northern England and Scotland, contributing to understanding of prehistoric artistic expression and land use in upland areas.
