The Great Stone of Fourstones, Bentham
A view of the Three Peaks of the Yorkshire Dales from the Great Stone of Fourstones, Bentham, North Yorkshire.
Locally called The Big Stone, this huge rock is an erratic boulder that was dropped on this moorland as a glacial deposit during the last Ice Age. The name suggests there were once four boulders but perhaps the others were used for building stone. Legend suggests this huge stone was dropped by the devil when he flew over the moors to build Devil’s Bridge at Kirkby Lonsdale!
From left to right the peaks are Whernside, Ingleborough and Pen-y-ghent.
