King Edward's Monument
King Edward's Monument submitted by Anne T : The sun was just at the right angle to catch it behind the cross on top of the monument.

King Edward's Monument
King Edward's Monument submitted by Anne T : Walking closer to the monument, which was originally marked by a cairn, but now by a pillar topped with a cross. A lonely, but thought-provoking place. Shame the gate was locked and we couldn't walk round the base of the monument.
