White Horse Stone

The White Horse Stone is a Neolithic standing megalith located near the ancient Pilgrim's Way in Kent's woodlands. The site sits within an archaeologically rich landscape that shows evidence of early human settlement and activity.

The megalith connects to archaeological evidence of early Neolithic human settlement and building activity in the region. The stone itself later became woven into local Anglo-Saxon history and retained its name through the centuries.

The stone connects to local legends about early Anglo-Saxon figures and their place in the region's story. Visitors can sense how people today value this location as a meaningful site for traditional practices.

The site is accessible via public footpaths crossing Kent's countryside, though some sections run along road edges and require care. Visitors should wear proper footwear and take caution on paths during wet weather.

The current stone inherited its name from an earlier megalith destroyed before 1834, absorbing the folklore connected to that original structure. This renaming shows how ancient places took on new meaning while preserving their historical roots.
