Yarnbury Henge

Yarnbury Henge


Grassington, United Kingdom (GB)
Yarnbury is a Neolithic henge located in the Yorkshire Dales. The henge itself is tiny, with a 20-22 metre internal area surrounded by a 3.5 metre wide ditch and then a 3-4 metre wide outer bank that survives to a height of about half a metre.

The inner ditch of the henge is still clearly visible from the ground and the henge can just be seen as a cropmark from the sky.
