This ancient stone trod through East Arncliffe Wood was built for the monks journeying between Whitby Abbey and Guisborough. The stones are especially slippery when wet, so care must be taken. Here, the River Esk becomes a cascading, tumbling rush as it enters the narrow gap between East Arncliffe Wood and Limber Hill.

excellent walk, it was a little wet when we did the walk so was glad to have a walking pole at times on some decents.
