What is recorded here
The National Heritage List for England records Small rock with four cup marks and a large hewn rock with one cupmark on Foldshaw Ridge 830m ESE of Wards End, 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, the cup marks and hewn rock may have held ritual or symbolic significance, possibly linked to astronomical observations, territorial markers, or ceremonial practices. Such features are often associated with wider prehistoric landscapes and burial traditions in the region.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
