Pulpit Rock is a wonderful spectacle to behold on the Dorset coast. Formed as a result of quarrying during the late 19th century, the name comes from the stack’s resemblance to an open bible leaning on a pulpit.

Pulpit Rock is a coastal feature at Portland Bill, the southern tip of the Isle of Portland, Dorset, England. Intended to have the appearance of an open bible leaning on a pulpit, Pulpit Rock was formed in the 1870s after a natural arch was cut away by quarrymen at Bill Quarry, and the leaning slab was added. As a quarrying relic, the rock is similar to that of Nicodemus Knob, another quarrying landmark on the island.
Climbing or tombstoning on the rock is not permitted, and signage in place stating this.
