The Coldstones Cut is a piece of public art on a monumental scale. It was created by Andrew Sabin as a cultural response to Coldstones Quarry. The sculpture, which opened in 2010, features a series of platforms and pathways that allow visitors to explore its impressive structure. Standing 1,375 feet above sea level, it is the highest public artwork in the UK.

It is possible to view the vast quarry hole, limestone quarrying operation and sweeping panoramas across Nidderdale National Landscape. The site is accessible via a 500-meter uphill walk from the car park and is open year-round, providing a unique cultural and scenic experience.  It’s an exposed spot so don’t forget to wrap up warm even on a sunny day!
