Recently, artistic rock formations have been created and found in northwestern England in the Cumbria area. The creations are arch-like and made of slate. They're pretty cool! Here's the story from BBC News.
ROB BROWNLake District mystery as elaborate stone artworks appear
The mystery artworks have been spotted across Borrowdale
Mystery artworks which have appeared in parts of the Lake District have left admirers pondering who made them.
One circular creation, which shows off views of Borrowdale Valley, is thought to be crafted from slate local to the area.
Photographer Carl Halliday took a picture of the piece, which has gained a lot of attention online.
The local village hall has dubbed it the work of "the Borrowdale Banksy" because nobody knows who was behind it.
The BBC is not saying exactly where the artworks are as some parts of the terrain can be dangerous to novice walkers.
The Lake District National Park Authority, which manages the area, has been approached for comment.

The Borrowdale Institute tweeted : Do we have our very own #Banksy in Borrowdale?These works of art are turning up on fells and Crags all around here, not sure how many there are, a very talented patient individual has been very busy in lockdown 😯 Whoever you/they are please carry on, we want more 😉
Windermere-based sculptor Shawn Williamson, who was not responsible for the structures, described them as taking on "the lifeblood or essence of the Lakes".
