Hanging Stone is a huge block of sandstone from which there are absolutely spectacular views to Roseberry Topping (to the south-west) as well as over Gisborough and Commondale Moors (to the east) and over the town of Guisborough to the north. In good weather, you will see all the way to the coast from here. Completely spellbinding.
