Rokan Stone

fitzcoraldo Sep 6, 2003

I was up at this fella today.
The views down the lower Esk Valley to the sea are absolutely crackin’.
There is also a modern memorial stone close by.
The are definitely worse places to spend eternity.

We haven’t been able to find out much information about this stone, it may only be a waymarker or boundary stone. It has the inscription Rokan/Stone cut into it, hence the name. But this is as much as we know!
