Site Type: Holy Well or Sacred Spring

Visited: Yes
Giant's Well (Trencrom) submitted by cazzyjane on 15th Jul 2010. A sweet but rather lonely little well, not helped by its metal cover and padlock. Rather less impressive than Trencrom Castle well found on the other side of the hill.

Boskednan stone circle
Date Added: 30th Jul 2011
Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Yes
Boskednan stone circle submitted by JimChampion on 22nd Aug 2005. The portal stones illuminated by the last rays of the setting sun. The tallest one (on the left) has a diagonal groove present on this and the opposite side. The holes that the restored stones were raised from have been covered with pegged down foliage, presumably to encourage regrowth on the bare earth.

Visited: Yes
Chun Quoit submitted by sem on 16th Jun 2005. The capstone and the horizon.
There is a theory that dolmens (or quoits as they are known in Cornwall) were not totally covered in earth but the capstones were left uncovered and were a copy of the horizon. I have manipulated the tones in this shot to show this, but no shapes have been altered.

Merrivale North Row
Date Added: 30th Jul 2011
Site Type: Multiple Stone Rows / Avenue
Country: England (Devon)
Visited: Yes
Merrivale North Row submitted by stewart on 12th Oct 2003. Grid Ref SX 555 747
There are two, main, rows at Merrivale - North and South.
The north row consists of two lines of stones, aligned east -west and nearly 200m long.
However, the two lines of stones are only about 1m apart so you can only just walk between them. It has larger stones at the west end and a blocking stone at the east.
The southern row doesn't start or finish on the same alignment, is not parallel to the northern one and was, probably, not built at the same time.

Merrivale submitted by thecaptain on 29th Oct 2004. Merrivale site overview.
This is the view looking west overlooking the Merrivale site. I have tried to mark out where the various features are.
The stones in the foreground are remains of bronze age reaves and ancient settlement huts and field walls.

Boscawen Un submitted by AngieLake on 6th Nov 2005. I should really keep this a secret! - the best time to visit Boscawen Un, on a quiet evening in May when bluebells are still carpeting the circle. Something to hang on to while we endure the bleak days of winter. (Don't tell anyone.......!)
