Lydford Viking Rune Stone, Lydford, Dartmoor National Park
'VIKINGS 997-1997. The stone was raised when the men of the North came again, this time in peace. Erik the Red carved the runes.' The stone is just across the road from the Battle of Lydford Memorial. Both commemorate a battle that took place between invading Vikings and Saxons defending the fortified town Lydford.
We've positioned Lydford Viking Rune Stone on Google maps so zoom in on the 'Satellite' setting to see its location. There's a car park opposite English Heritage's Lydford Castle and The Castle Inn.
