Rock with cup, ring and groove marks in the west side of Guisecliff Wood, 420m south east of Far High Westcliff is a Bronze Age rock art panel located in Yorkshire. The stone bears a series of cup marks, ring marks, and groove marks that represent examples of prehistoric rock carving typical of the Bronze Age period in northern England. Such decorated rocks are thought to have held ritual or ceremonial significance for the communities that created them, though their precise function remains unclear. The marks themselves demonstrate the technical skill and cultural practices of Bronze Age populations in the Yorkshire region.
