"Each of these crosses can tell its own story and what motivated people to erect "their" cross at this spot. (...) These wayside crosses were erected as visible signs and attract the attention of many people. The cross is a symbol of life. It stands as a sign of our Christian hope and aims to direct our gaze to Jesus Christ, who has overcome death (...). The cross is a part of our lives, just as it was a part of the life of Jesus. So I hope that many people... will seek out the wayside crosses, whether as places of silence and respite before God, or as places of community gathering, prayer, and praise."

Photographer @Jessica Mather had the misfortune of not being able to enjoy the view offered by the ANA CROSS site during her run here due to the weather conditions. However, more than two dozen photos of the small sacred monument and the panorama offered by the prominent location can be seen on the hiking highlight of the same name =>> https://www.komoot.com/de-de/highlight/2252418

Highest cross on the moors, great views across Spaunton Moor when the weather allows.

Fryton Lane ends here, where it meets Fryton West Wood. Off-road parking for a couple of cars. Far-reaching views to the north across the Vale of Pickering. Great track to the east, through Fryton East Wood, which is blanketed in bluebells in Spring.

The wayside cross marks a medieval route way across the moor between Lastingham and the site of Rosedale Priory. A deeply incised hollow way skirts the western side of the barrow heading towards the modern village of Rosedale Abbey. The current cross, which at one time was known as Ain or One Howe Cross, but now more generally as Ana Cross, dates to 1949 when the original medieval cross was removed to the crypt of Lastingham Church. It was repaired in the summer of 1998 after its collapse in the winter of 1995. More details at ancientmonuments.co.uk.

You're just cycling past Hovingham Park, fantastic grounds just west of the village of Hovingham, part of the Hovingham Estate. It would be a very good place to make a coffee stop on your ride here as the place is so green and lovely. Of particular interest is the stone bridge, called Pickering Bridge. Grade II-listed, within the Hovingham Park, with a gorgeous view of the Palladian-style Hovingham Hall. This ornamental bridge goes over a waterfall and dates back to the late 18th century. Enjoy!

There is a fabulous view down Fryton Lane to the hamlet of Fryton from here, but what of course grabs the attention is dozens of miles of the English countryside here: miles and miles and miles of a view to the distant hills on the horizon. The poetry is not all in Switzerland, you know!
