Cairn in Yorkshire (North)
This is one of three cairns dotted about the limestone pavement at White Scars below Ingleborough mountain. Sadly no information seems to be available on this one. Could easily be very old... It has a prominent position on a ledge overlooking the valley - great place from which to view a sunset.
