What is recorded here
The National Heritage List for England records Cup marked rock in boulder walling between Southpiece Cottage and Bleach Mill as a scheduled monument. The saved point comes from the centre supplied by the official record. Listing does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Cup marked rock art typically dates to the Neolithic or Bronze Age periods, between 4000 and 800 BCE. These markings may have had ritual or symbolic significance, possibly related to water, fertility, or celestial events, though their exact meaning remains uncertain.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
