Rock with at least seven cup marks at edge of track on Stoop Hill is a Bronze Age ritual monument located on Askwith Moor in Yorkshire. The stone bears cup marks, which are characteristic of prehistoric rock art found across northern Britain and typically date to the Bronze Age, though some may have earlier Neolithic origins. These cup marks represent evidence of ritual or ceremonial activity on the moor, possibly associated with burial practices or territorial marking. The monument's location along a track edge suggests it may have marked a significant route or gathering place within the prehistoric landscape of the moorland.
