| Black Hill Cross (Glaisdale Rigg) | Ancient Cross | England | Yorkshire (North) | Visited | 2nd Jul 2017 | 3 | 4 | 5 | Black Hill Cross, Glaisdale Rigg: From Danby Rigg, we made our way to Glaisdale Rigg. I’ve been to some surprisingly beautiful parts of England before, but this was Pretty with a capital ‘P’. We needed the map to follow the surprisingly windy (and hilly) roads through Street village to Glais... Read More |

| Glaisdale Rigg Tall Cairn | Cairn | England | Yorkshire (North) | Visited | 2nd Jul 2017 | 3 | 4 | 4 | Glaisdale Rigg Dry Stone Cairn, North Yorkshire: I spotted this whilst we were walking along the road to find Hart Leap. It looks relatively modern (there are lots of grouse shooting butts in the area) but by this late in the evening and after having walked seemingly miles across knee deep heather,... Read More |

| Danby Rigg (Slate Hill) | Marker Stone | England | Yorkshire (North) | Visited | 2nd Jul 2017 | 4 | 4 | 4 | Marker/Standing Stone & Trig Point, Danby Rigg, North Yorkshire: Not marked on the OS map, this stone sits within a couple of metres of Trig Point TP2728 (Danby Moor). It is sited almost on the eastern edge of Danby Rigg, where the ridge starts to slope sharply down to Little Fryup Dale. There is no... Read More |

| Danby Rigg (Crossley Gate) | Cairn | England | Yorkshire (North) | Visited | 2nd Jul 2017 | 2 | 4 | 4 | Round cairn overlooking Crossley Gate, Danby Rigg, North Yorkshire: From the other marker stones along the track between Little Fryup Dale and Danby Dale, we walked back to the trig point, then took the footpath (mountain bike track) headed north east along the path that runs along the eastern edge ...

| Danby Rigg Cross Dyke (Crossley Side) | Misc. Earthwork | England | Yorkshire (North) | Visited | 2nd Jul 2017 | 2 | 4 | 4 | Danby Rigg Cross Dyke (Crossley Side), North Yorkshire: From the standing stone (marker stone) and trig point, we walked along the footpath leading approx. north east along the eastern side of the ridge towards the large round cairn. I confess to having walked past this at first, almost reaching th... Read More |

| Danby Rigg Marker Stones | Marker Stone | England | Yorkshire (North) | Visited | 2nd Jul 2017 | 3 | 4 | 4 | Danby Rigg Marker Stones, North Yorkshire: I was really surprised to find these marker stones on top of the moor, running from the Standing Stone and trig point in line with Slate Hill to Danby Dale.
We didn't walk to all of them, as we wanted to get across to the cross dyke, round cairn and ring... Read More |

| Glaisdale Rigg (Hill Top) | Marker Stone | England | Yorkshire (North) | Visited | 2nd Jul 2017 | 3 | 4 | 5 | Glaisdale Rigg Standing Stone: From Hart Leap, we were making our way home. Spotting this, I got my husband to virtually do an emergency stop as I spotted this stone at the side of the road. There is nothing on Pastscape or Historic England about this stone, but it lies just under 700 metres north ... Read More |

| Danby Rigg Cairn With Standing Stone | Ring Cairn | England | Yorkshire (North) | Visited | 2nd Jul 2017 | 2 | 4 | 3 | Danby Rigg Ring Cairn with Standing Stone, North Yorkshire: Of all the sites on Danby Rigg, this was the one I wanted to see most of all, especially after seeing the photos on the Portal, and I wasn't disappointed, although rather than a stone circle, I found a ring cairn with standing stone. The ... Read More |

| Hart Leap Stones | Misc. Earthwork | England | Yorkshire (North) | Visited | 2nd Jul 2017 | 2 | 4 | 5 | Hart Leap, Glaisdale Rigg: From the Black Hill Cross/Standing Stone, despite having the grid references for this site, we drove past it twice and had to park up and get out and explore. Fortunately there was a moorland track heading eastwards across the moor with room to pull up in. In driving furt... Read More |

| Danby Rigg Marker Stone (Crossley Gate) | Marker Stone | England | Yorkshire (North) | Visited | 2nd Jul 2017 | 3 | 4 | 3 | Danby Rigg Marker Stone (Crossley Gate), North Yorkshire: this isn't marked on the OS map, but it is scheduled and listed on Pastscape. It is in a beautiful spot looking east to Lower Fryup Dale and marks the junction of two paths - one which comes up from the valley to the east, the track that run... Read More |
