I think the WKLB 'cups' are natural.
There are 3 stones in the barrow which have axe pollishing marks on them
The WK ave has 2 stones with very vague cup marks. Kieller thought they were real at first but abandoned the idea when it came time to write up the reports.
I found a stone near Mottistone longbarrow on the Isle of Wight this weekend that has a possible carving but seeing as the rock is so soft I now doubt that it is very old at all.
