Roughtor long cairn
Date Added: 27th Aug 2021
Site Type: Cairn
Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Yes on 26th Aug 2021. My rating: Condition 3 Ambience 4 Access 4
Roughtor long cairn submitted by theCaptain on 18th Oct 2014. Almost 500 metre long stone bank structure, 5 - 8 metres wide and with facing slabs lining its edges, on the northern slopes of Rough Tor. Originally thought to be a sort of boundary structure, an investigation by TimeTeam in 2007 showed it to be more of a cairn type feature.

Visited: Yes on 2nd Sep 2021. My rating: Condition 3 Ambience 4 Access 3
Emblance Down stone row submitted by TheCaptain on 23rd Mar 2005. Sunday I had a day walking on northwestern Bodmin moor, and visited about a dozen prehistoric sites. While on King Arthur’s Downs, I wondered whether I had found a possible stone row, at SX137775. Unusual for round here I agree, but it wouldnt be too dissimilar to the Nine Maidens row at St Breock.
Walk eastwards from the two circles along the edge of the southern wall, and after a couple of hundred yards can be seen a large pointed stone flat to the ground. This stone is about three and a ...

Log Text: Had no idea I visited this one until I got home, checked my OS Map app and coordinates! Easy to get to - pass through the wooden gate by the water works, over the clapper bridge and it's just up the track from there. I came from the opposite end - Carkees Tor.

Leaze Cist submitted by TheCaptain on 24th Mar 2005. Walking northwards towards King Arthur’s Hall from the end of the road out into Bodmin Moor near Leaze waterworks, the remains of a fine cist within a kerbed cairn are to be found.
The cist is about 3 foot long by 18 inches wide, and a couple of feet deep, lined with good slabs of stone. The surrounding cairn is fairly small, probably only about 3 metres in diameter, but with a clear circle of stones surrounding it.

Figgy Dowdy's Well submitted by KiwiBetsy on 26th Aug 2006. According to RootsWeb.com, this well is also known as Maggy Figgy and Margery Daw and was a popular place to christen your doll on Good Friday. The well has been restored by the Carn Marth Preservation Group and is kept locked as a safety measure. I’m sure Figgy Dowdy would approve of this as the rhyme ….
Figgy Dowdy had a well
On the top of Carn Marth hill
And she locked it night and day
Lest they took her water away

Log Text: Oddly difficult to spot on the way up Carn Marth but dead easy if coming down! If on the way up, look for a very small gap on the right-hand side about 20m before you reach the amphitheatre quarry. The turning double-backs and leads to a short series of granite steps heading down to the Well. Once found, you'll not understand how you had missed it all those times before :)
