Rock with at least six cups is a Bronze Age carved rock located approximately 170 metres north west of Grey Stones Farm in Yorkshire. The monument consists of a stone surface bearing cup marks, a form of rock art characteristic of the prehistoric period, most likely dating to the Bronze Age or earlier. Cup mark carvings of this type are found across northern Britain and represent one of the earliest forms of monumental artistic expression, though their precise ritual or practical purpose remains subject to scholarly debate. The site's survival and official designation reflect its archaeological importance as evidence of prehistoric settlement patterns and artistic practices in the Yorkshire region.
