Brimham Rocks are natural formations on Brimham Moor in North Yorkshire.
The many different and distinct variations began to take shape millions of years ago, caused by glacial erosion, sand, water and wind.
Owned and maintained by the National Trust, they are part of the Nidderdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Since our visit earlier this year, five young people were seen pushing a rock on top of one of the crags. The resulting fall caused irreparable damage and that particular area is now potentially dangerous.
Great pictures.
You’ve reminded me that I really must go back to Brimham Rocks. It’s not too far from where I live in Wensleydale and a lovely place to take photographs. Such a shame that the mindless act of those young people have changed the landscape there forever.
Such a great place to explore and clamber about. Although last time we were there at Easter maybe about five or six years ago, there was about three foot of snow! Not what we expected for our Spring break! Was shocked to hear about the recent mindless vandalism.
Absolutely gorgeous photos of these fascinating rocks. It’s a shame that the young people had to desecrate this glory with their destructive antics. Love and hugs, Cathy.

Wow. They look like Utah without the red rocks.

Thanks, Xenia 🙂 It’s very sad that people feel the need to destroy things. I’m hoping to get back there, we didn’t see it all xxx

I saw that story about the vandals – idiots! If it weren’t against the law, I’d quite like to shove them off the top of a rock…
