Farley Mount, Summit and mountain in Hursley, United Kingdom.
Farley Mount rises 174 meters above Hampshire's landscape, featuring a white pyramidal monument visible from neighboring regions and extensive walking paths.
The monument commemorates a horse that survived a 25-foot fall into a chalk pit in 1733 and won the Hunters' Plate race at Winchester the following year.
The area surrounding Farley Mount includes Bronze Age burial mounds and an ancient beacon site, reflecting centuries of human presence in the region.
Multiple hiking trails of varying difficulties connect Farley Mount to nearby locations, with the monument serving as a navigation landmark for walkers.
The elongated pyramid structure contains three blank porches and one entrance, leading to an interior room constructed specifically for visitors to rest.
