This is a very striking resemblance to a serpent.

The eye seems deliberately carved upon closer inspection.

It has a tainted history in modern times as Myra Hindley was seen sitting on this rock in one of her photographed poses (Ramshaw Rocks seemed a place they visited a few times).

It is said to align with the Bawd stone during the spring equinox.

It is worth checking out for its appearance if you are hiking here.

It can easily be seen as you ascend on the left of the path along the Ramshaw Ridge.

Wow, I'm really impressed by this highlight on Komoot! The landscape looks simply breathtaking, and it must be a great experience to hike or cycle this route. I love discovering new places that are not only beautiful but also diverse. It reminds me how important it is to have little adventures in everyday life and to treat myself to time for experiences in nature.

By the way, while thinking about adventures and exciting experiences, it occurred to me that you can find similar excitement online, of course, in a completely different context. For example, spielautomatcasinos.at/online-casino-bonuses/400-prozent offers impressive bonuses that make playing truly exciting. It's interesting how you can enjoy little moments of excitement both in nature and online—once physical and once virtual, but both enriching everyday life in their own way. A perfect balance between relaxation and fun!
