Rock with large oval cup east of plantation on Weston Moor is a prehistoric rock art monument located in Yorkshire, England, situated approximately 830 metres west-southwest of Dob Park House Farm. The rock bears a cup mark, a form of Bronze Age or earlier rock art common to upland regions of northern Britain. Cup marks represent one of the simplest and most enduring traditions of prehistoric rock carving, typically created by repeated percussion to produce shallow depressions in stone surfaces. This example contributes to the broader record of ritual or territorial marking practices in the Pennine landscape during the Bronze Age period.
