Cup-marks located 320 metres east-north-east of Silverbarton Farm is a prehistoric rock carving in Fife, Scotland. The site consists of cup-shaped depressions pecked into the rock surface, a form of monumental marking characteristic of Neolithic and Bronze Age peoples in Scotland, though the precise dating of such carvings remains uncertain. Cup-marks and related rock art of this type are found across northern Britain and are thought to have held ritual or territorial significance for prehistoric communities.
