Crich Stand

Perched on top of the hillside above Crich village is Crich Stand, which, standing at 1000ft above sea level, is a landmark for miles. It is a war memorial, built in 1923 and dedicated to the Sherwood Foresters who died in the first world war. A lantern shines at nightime and there is an annual pilgrimage to the stand by the regiment on the first Sunday in July.
