The White Horse of Kilburn walk is 1.5 miles long and it is considered the largest hill figure in Britain. It is 97 metres long and 220ft high.
The concept was created by a man who lived in Sutton Bank called Thomas Taylor, along with the village school master, John Hodgson, and his pupils back in the 1850s.
They were forced to cover up the carving during the Second World War to prevent it from becoming a target.
Since it was uncovered and re-whitened by a local craftsman in the 1940s, it has become a very popular tourist attraction for tourists and Yorkshire locals alike.
