Rock with one cup mark 200m north of Low Hood Gap, Heyshaw is a Neolithic or Bronze Age rock art site located in Yorkshire. The monument consists of a natural rock surface bearing a single cup mark, a form of prehistoric rock carving common throughout northern Britain during the Neolithic and Bronze Age periods. Cup marks were created by pecking the rock surface and may have held ritual or symbolic significance, though their precise function remains uncertain. The site contributes to the archaeological evidence of prehistoric activity and land use in the Pennine uplands.
