Rock with single cup mark between road and Pennythorn Hill is a Bronze Age rock art site located in Yorkshire. The monument consists of a natural rock surface bearing a single cup mark, a form of pecked depression characteristic of prehistoric ritual or ceremonial rock art in Britain. Cup marks are among the most common types of rock art found across upland regions of northern England and Scotland, typically dating to the Bronze Age, though their precise chronological placement and interpretative function remain subjects of scholarly debate. The site's location between the road and Pennythorn Hill places it within a landscape that may have held significance for prehistoric communities occupying the region.
