Summary

Description
English: Millennium sandstone pillar, near to Crosby Ravensworth, Cumbria, Great Britain.

This large circular stone is natural.

The plaque next to it says "This stone was extracted from our quarry at Plumpton, near Lazonby in 1996. It is the remnant of a wind sculpted pillar of sandstone around 250 million years ago and is exactly as it came out of the ground. As a mark for the Millennium it perhaps puts time in perspective. Cumbria Stone Quarries Ltd, May 2000"
