Rock with at least two cup marks 660m north east of Ridge Lathe, Burhill Kiln Allotment, Skyreholme is a prehistoric rock art site situated in the moorland landscape of Yorkshire. The monument comprises a natural rock outcrop bearing cup marks, a form of Bronze Age or earlier rock carving consisting of hemispherical depressions pecked into the stone surface. Such cup-marked rocks are characteristic of the prehistoric period in northern Britain, though their precise ritual or domestic function remains uncertain.
