What is recorded here
The National Heritage List for England records A cup marked rock with 13 cups and a groove, on a knoll in Scale Knoll Allotment, 700m north east of Black Hill Gate, Barningham Moor 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.
This cup and ring marked rock is likely from the Neolithic or Bronze Age period, dating to between 4000 and 800 BCE. Such markings are often associated with ritual or ceremonial activity, possibly linked to fertility, water sources, or astronomical observations, though specific meanings remain uncertain.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
