Just ordered this from the library. Book from 2023.

 As we celebrate National Read a Book Day today, it’s an brilliant opportunity to revisit our recent publication: National Trust Britain's Landmarks and Legends by Jo Woolf. 

Discover the history, legends and folklore of Britain’s most intriguing landmarks.  This beautifully illustrated book reveals the secrets and stories of fifty icons of Britain’s landscape.  Some are natural wonders, such as Cheddar Gorge, Sherwood Forest and the white cliffs of Dover. Others were made by our distant ancestors: the standing stones of Avebury and Calanais, the Uffington White Horse, the burial mounds of Sutton Hoo.   Discover how they came to be, the legends and traditions that surround them, and how they have inspired famous writers and poets.
