Nice snack hut. Coffee and cake a must

The Rudston monolith is the tallest prehistoric standing stone in Britain, measuring almost 8 metres high, nearly 2 metres wide, a metre thick and estimated to weigh somewhere in the region of a massive 26 tons. This giant block of grey sandstone or gritstone was errected here either in the late Neolithic or early Bronze Age and is thought to have been quarried more than 10 miles away in the Cayton Bay area south of Scarborough, although the glacial transportation of a large block of stone that was then shaped and utilised by the prehistoric residents of the area cannot be ruled out. The top of the stone has been weathered and eroded into a fluted peak similar to the stones of the Devil's Arrows and a lead cap was first added to try to preserve it in the 18th century. The churchyard of All Saints that it stands in is of course much younger and although the christianisation of the site took place around 1100AD the stone had already stood here for at least 3000 years. The monolith stands close to the Gypsey Race, an occasional stream that flows along the floor of the Great Wold Valley from close to the barrow of Duggleby Howe in the east, past another pair of barrows at Wold Newton and Willie Howe before turning south past the Argham Henge and Cursus down to Rudston itself where it bends sharply and heads eastwards to the sea at Bridlington. The whole of the Gypsey Race landscape was obviously important in prehistoric times and holds a rich selection of sites, most of which have been destroyed or badly damaged by ploughing, including many round barrows, several long barrows, four cursuses and at least one henge. It continued to retain its importance into the historic period - a major Roman villa was discovered to the southwest of Rudston village. In the corner of the churchyard is a much smaller stone presumably brought here from a local barrow and also the remains of a double cist that was removed from a nearby barrow on Rudston Beacon by the antiquarian Canon Greenwell in the late 19th century.

Freewheel all the way down here. Watch out for road erosion in patches.

Direct connecting route on the back roads between hutton and driffield.

Lovely stop by the side of the river - often swans swimming by & egrets in the trees.

Marker board signifying Bridlington end (or start) of the Way of the Roses route.

Bridlington South is a broad stretch of sandy beach located south of Bridlington Spa and Bridlington Harbour, along the East Riding coast. Stretching over a mile, it eventually merges into Fraisthorpe Beach. Heading south, the sandy coastline continues all the way to the Humber estuary.

Chalk streams are pristine waterways brimming with biodiversity and distinctive ecology. They flow through chalk bedrock, resulting in exceptionally clear waters and a rich array of aquatic flora and fauna. They provide habitat for a diverse range of species, including trout, grayling, and freshwater invertebrates. However, chalk streams face mounting threats from pollution, abstraction, and habitat degradation, and we need a concerted conservation effort to safeguard these invaluable natural treasures.

Wold Newton is located within the Great Wold Valley and the course of the Gypsey Race, a winterbourne chalk stream, which passes through the south of the village. The parish church of All Saints is a Grade II listed building, and there are a further eight Grade II listed buildings in the village.

Situated in the churchyard in the village of Rudston, this monolith, which stands at over 25 feet, is the tallest megalith in the United Kingdom.

Please be careful?

The official start or end (depending on direction of travel) for the Way of the Roses route. Bridlington beach is a great place to start or end any route, especially the WotR. It's very close to the train station and lots of car parking so an ideal start point. Plus there are plenty of great fish and chip options for if you're finishing here too.

Lovely place for a ride

Wansford lock on the Driffield canal was opened in 1770. It was given Grade II listed status in 1985 and restored in 2009.

It’s a lot better than the pictures make it look, it was a great ride to the holiday park

Rudston Monolith is the tallest standing stone in Britain, but receives very few visitors relative to its high standing. The monolith dates from around 2000BCE and is quarried from the Cleveland Hills, west of Whitby. At just shy of 8m high, it would have involved a significant project to shape and transport and install it.

Interesting self-service level crossings
