Rock with at least 33 cup marks, some enclosed by grooves, at top of slope between fence and Snowden Beck in Ellers Wood, Dob Park, 600m NE of Midge Hall is a Bronze Age rock art panel. The rock surface displays cup marks, a form of non-representational rock art characteristic of prehistoric ritual or ceremonial practice in northern Britain, with some of the carved depressions further defined by incised grooves. Located in the moorland landscape of Yorkshire, this monument preserves evidence of Bronze Age artistic and possibly spiritual expression, though the precise interpretation and function of such cup-marked rocks remain subjects of archaeological study. The site's position on sloping terrain overlooking Snowden Beck suggests careful placement within the contemporary landscape.
