Description: City of Troy. The only surviving example in the North Riding of this type of grass maze. It is located by a roadside in the Howardian Hills of Yorkshire, England, near the villages of Dalby, and Skewsby, close to Sheriff Hutton, a few miles north of York. It is at grid reference SE6252871886 in Bonnygate Lane / High Lane. For some reason neither the Landranger map nor the Victorian Ordnance Survey map mark it. See the Megalithic Portal.
