NORTH Yorkshire looks set to get lost in another giant maze in the next three years – this time made of dry stone walls.

The Forestry Commission is working together with Mark Ellis, 47, to build the giant maze in Dalby Forest, near Pickering.

Although fundraising for the £600,000 needed to build the maze has only just begun, planning of the 80-square metre attraction is already well under way.

The maze will need 4,000 tonnes of stone, 300 of which have already been donated.

The walls will be six feet high and the layout will be altered over time to keep it fresh for visitors.

Mark Ellis said: “Lifting and shaping 4,000 tonnes of stone will be a heck of a slog, but a great attraction in itself for visitors.”

Petra Young from the Forestry Commission said: “We like to think everything is bigger and better in Yorkshire, and what better way to prove it.”
