St Hilda's Church (Sherburn)
Date Added: 22nd Feb 2025
Site Type: Sculptured Stone
Country: England (Yorkshire (North))
Visited: Would like to visit
St Hilda's Church (Sherburn) submitted by AKFisher on 15th Feb 2025. In a beautiful, peaceful country church between York and Scarborough is the only surviving stone in England showing the face of Wayland the Smith. He is strapped into his flying device with his hands grasping on to a female figure who has her waist wedged into the beak of a headpiece that the Flying Smith is wearing. It almost looks like one of the jeopardy scenes from the end sequence of a Wallace and Gromit animation, but the grim early medieval storyline it illustrates is more Quentin Taranti...

Doubler Stones Allotment 04 submitted by bonirex on 19th Aug 2024. Images taken in the early evening sun on August 18th 2024.
Having read the description from 2012 I wasn't expecting to see much but this panel was a very pleasant surprise. The stone has either been cleared of lichen at some point, or has lost it naturally, but there are three cups with rings clearly visible, one of which has a double ring and is unusually large - looks like it was cut deeply. At least another two cups are visible, as well as a clear groove at the bottom of the panel, surr...

Log Text: I’ve been meaning to come out here for a while and finally made it. Definitely worth the trip!
It’s a restored henge and circle but it’s well done. And the setting next to the gravel pit lake is very nice. Just try to ignore the landfill, and the roar of off-road vehicles on the other side of the lake.
The small carpark is a little tricky to find. Follow the signs for the household recycling and you’ll spot it. There is a sign “this way for the DQs” to get you onto the (muddy) footpath between the landfill and lake.
I had it to myself on this wet Sunday morning.
