If you'd asked last week we would have gone and looked; there's not that much round Whitby (I know there's that RA up at Fylingsdale). Saw the Bridestones but not the one in Dalby Forest. Marvellous weather in 'Postman Pat's' land ;) but it was a very cold wind up on the moors...

Eh? There's tons of stuff, you just weren't looking ;-)

It does get windy though, I was up at Ramsdale doing a timelapse a couple of weeks back and eventually had to retreat to the car to defrost my hands and feet. Drove down to Harwood Dale and there was hardly a breeze.
