White Horse Stone, Neolithic standing stone in Aylesford, England

The White Horse Stone stands 1.65 meters tall and 2.9 meters long within a woodland area near the ancient Pilgrim's Way in Kent.

Archaeological investigations near the stone revealed two early Neolithic rectangular structures dating from 4110-3530 BC, sealed beneath an Iron Age plough soil.

The stone holds significance for various groups who perform ceremonies at the site, connecting it to Anglo-Saxon historical figures Hengest and Horsa.

Access to the White Horse Stone involves following public footpaths through the Kent countryside, with some sections requiring careful navigation along road edges.

The current White Horse Stone inherited its name from a previous megalith that was destroyed before 1834, absorbing its folkloric connections and traditions.
