Rock with cup marks enclosed by grooves at north east end of ridge, south of Snowden Beck in Ellers Wood, Dob Park is a prehistoric rock art site located in the Pennine region of Yorkshire. The monument consists of a natural rock surface bearing cup marks—small artificial depressions—that are enclosed or bordered by grooved lines, a characteristic form of Bronze Age portable or immobile rock art found across northern Britain. Such rock carvings are typically attributed to the Bronze Age, though their precise chronology remains subject to ongoing scholarly debate. The site's location on the upland terrain south of Snowden Beck reflects the distribution pattern of rock art in this landscape, which often occurs at significant topographical positions.
