A cup-marked stone 800 metres south-south-west of West Dron Cottages is a prehistoric rock surface bearing a series of cupule markings, located in Perthshire, Scotland. Cup-and-ring marked stones are characteristic of Bronze Age rock art in Scotland, typically dating to the second millennium BCE, though the precise chronology of individual examples remains uncertain. The stone's location in central Scotland places it within a known distribution area for such carvings, which occur on both portable stones and fixed rock outcrops across the region. The monument's survival and recording by the Historic Environment Scotland record demonstrates the archaeological importance of such modest but widespread expressions of prehistoric ritual or territorial practice.
