Monoliths in Britain

I believe that there could be (differently formed) monoliths in Britain. Most will be of volcanic origin and will be quite eroded. This one, Craig yr Aderyn (Bird Rock) is the furthest inland in the UK where cormorants nest, suggesting some degree of land rise, or deposition from the River Dysynni moving the coastline 7 miles away to the southwest.

I would guess that Edinburgh Castle is built on a monolith. Can you name others?
