The Journal of Antiquities includes an entry for a cluster of cup-marked rocks in this area - see their page for Farnhill Moor Cup-Marked Rocks, Near Skipton, North Yorkshire. The Journal tells us these rocks are hidden in the undergrowth to the south side of the Jubilee Memorial (a white monument with a stone cross).
One of these large gritston rocks has four large cup marks with two smaller above, while the rock below it has forty or so cups.
The JoA gives directions on how to find these panels, although they note "you will have to search around to find these carvings, but it will be worth it in the end!"
Note: With thanks to Sunny100 for finding these panels; more information to follow
