Northern 'Grit'
The Bride Stones
Near Todmorden, West Yorkshire
Located on the moors between Burnley and Todmorden are the Bride Stones. An outcrop set of mill stone grit rocks weirdly carved by the wind of countless ages
First described in local deeds as early as 1491 there are a great number of severely weathered boulders all round here, many like frozen rock giants haunting a magical landscape. The modern lore ascribes the stones to be dedicated to Bride, goddess of the Brigantian people.
