    Hiking

    This large boulder is just below what is an ancient ford crossing Sun Bank Gill. It has a number of old, curious cup-marks on it... and is a great place to sit on to enjoy the moorland.

    The road where the ford is located is an old Roman Road, in fact. It was known as Watling Street, linking Ilkley to Aldborough.
