Interesting facts about this location
Rudston Monolith
The Rudston Monolith at over 7.6 metres is the tallest megalith in the United Kingdom. It is situated in the churchyard in the village of Rudston in the East Riding of Yorkshire. The nearest source (Cayton or Cornelian Bay) of stone of the type the monolith is made of is 16 kilometres north of the site. It was probably erected around 1600 BC. There is one other smaller stone, of the same type, in the churchyard, which was once situated near the large stone.
