Alport Heights Monolith
I’m not gonna lie to you dear viewer, I may just have gone OTT on the processing here. Sky replaced via Luminar for iPad and the nuclear level supersaturation courtesy of Snapseed.
The "Alport Stone," is a prominent pillar of quarried gritstone, a natural landmark on Alport Heights, near Wirksworth, Derbyshire.
It's a local landmark with views of the Derwent and Ecclesbourne Valleys. The National Trust acquired 9 acres of land near the summit in 1930, making it one of their first Derbyshire acquisitions and providing free access to the site.
The stone itself likely predates the late 19th century, as it's visible on a 1st edition OS map from around 1880.
