What is recorded here

The National Heritage List for England records Rock with a complex design of small cup marks and shallow grooves south of Foldshaw Ridge, 440m south of the shooting shelter, Middleton 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.

Likely dating to the Neolithic or Bronze Age, this rock art may have had ritual or symbolic significance, possibly linked to territorial markers, celestial observations, or ancestral beliefs. Cup and groove markings are commonly associated with ceremonial or spiritual practices in prehistoric Britain.
