White Horse of Kilburn

Local nameWhite Horse of Kilburn
LocationGreat Britain, UK

The Kilburn White Horse is a hill figure cut into the hillside in the North York Moors National Park near Kilburn in North Yorkshire, England.

It is 318 feet long by 220 ft high and covers about 1.6 acres and said to be the most northerly "chalk" hill figure in England.

Located on the southern flank of Sutton Bank, near Roulston Scar at the edge of the Hambleton table-land, it faces south-south-west and is visible from some distance, particularly from the East Coast Main Line railway south of Thirsk, and from the A19. On a clear day, the horse is visible from north Leeds, 28 miles away on the higher ground to the west of the Vale of York.
