Log Text: The White Horse Stone is on the Pilgrims way in between Aylesford and Boxley, and is only accessable on foot. I found access by parking near the Shell Service station (Cossington), on the south bound A229 (Blue Bell Hill) From the service station follow the north downs way over the new High Speed railway onto pilgrims way and the stone will be about 100yds on your left hand side. Impressive that the stone undoubtedly is, I suspect it is not in situe and is possibly part of the long destroyed Smythe Monuments, moved out of the field system.

Log Text: Parking is a problem, but there is a Lay by about 300yds from the site, however access from there requires walking along the busy Rochester Road to Pilgrims way with no foot path. Once you are at the path (Signposted with Ancient Monument) the walk is up a steep path next to the field with the monument in it. The monument is now kept by English Heritage behind black iron railings, however this dose not take away from how impressive the site is. From this monument you can see where the Coldrum stones are and you can just immagine how it would have looked 3000 years ago when the tombs were complete and in all there former glory!! Th3y would have dominated the landscape!

Log Text: There is some parking provided by the National Trust, but from there the walk is on an unmade path and through a field, so if you can avoid going on a wet day that would be best! Upon reaching the site, the mood is amazing with the wind rustling through the trees and the ribbons and bells tied to one of the trees. The National trust have provided steps and a path around the monument and also signs and information. The first time I walked up the steep stairs and saw the stones it took my breath away! I feel privileged to live so close to this site, and amazed that I did not know about the site until I was 32 years of age!
