Boskednan Menhir 1 submitted by theCaptain on 14th Oct 2014. From my dim memories, I thought that the menhir was somewhere between the stone circle and the cairns along the path towards Men-an-Tol.
On the way back I notice indeed there is a stump and perhaps a fallen stone right on the pathway where I was expecting it, is it remains of a pair?
Pipers perhaps?

Four Parishes Rock
Date Added: 23rd Oct 2023
Site Type: Sculptured Stone
Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Yes on 29th Jul 2023. My rating: Condition 2 Ambience 4 Access 2
Four Parishes Rock submitted by Bladup on 4th Dec 2017. Four Parishes Rock, I believe the right hand side of this stone is a slightly different colour because it was once in the ground (for a long time), therefore making this a former Standing Stone. The weathering at the other end (left) is also going in the right direction if made when stood up. Ding Dong mine is visible on the right.

Carn Euny Fogou submitted by AngieLake on 2nd Jan 2005. This shot shows the huge but low (4.5ft - 1.4m) SE-facing doorway of the Carn Euny 'Beehive Hut' underground chamber, with its own short passage leading into the fogou passage which runs SW/NE, (but snaking here with a flatter, more W/E run), just outside the doorway. It is thought that the Beehive Hut (chamber) was the first structure on this site, so that originally the eastern wall of the fogou passage would not have obstructed the view. It is possible that the sun was meant to shine down t...

The Avenue submitted by TimPrevett on 10th Oct 2006. Looking NE along the last stretch of The Avenue. I've appended, albeit somewhat crudely, some lines to show the course of the outside of the parallel banks, and their *approximate* direction swinging off to the east. The tan line in the distance shows the line of some of the Cursus, which predates the Avenue considerably.
