Small cup-marked rock on Stanbury Hill is a Bronze Age rock art site located in Yorkshire, England. The monument consists of a stone bearing cup marks, a form of prehistoric rock carving created by repeated percussion to produce shallow circular depressions in the rock surface. Cup-marked rocks are characteristic of Bronze Age ritual or symbolic expression in northern Britain, though their precise function remains uncertain and may have related to territorial marking, ceremonial activity, or spiritual beliefs. The site's location west of the fork in the path on Stanbury Hill places it within a landscape that contains other prehistoric remains indicative of Bronze Age activity in the region.
