Thank you tiompan.
The larger ones reminded me of the large dish-marking at Robin Hood's Stride but they were a bit scruffy. The genuine cup marks I've seen have all been quite neat and properly hollowed out. These had raised bottoms - almost like they hadn't been finished.
Well, to my eye, in the third photo from the left, they look like little Bowl Barrows with a surrounding ditch! Would that be right Emma? Dunno what it means though.

Yes I suppose they are like bowl barrows - that shape hollowed into the surface. It's as if they started to make a cup mark but gave up before they'd done the middle!
