Mounting Block

Description

Mounting block outside the Little Angel Public House, Whitby (Yorkshire, UK). Mounting blocks were a common feature up until the late 18th century, allowing a horse to be mounted more easily. They were often located in main streets and outside public houses. The three stone steps are much worn. https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1148271 The model was made from 173 photographs.
