Chun Castle submitted by JimChampion on 13th May 2005. August 2004. Looking east from the hill fort, with the ruined stone walls (a more recent addition to the defences) in the foreground. Between here and the hill in the distance are several popular megalithic sites such as Lanyon Quoit, the Men-an-Tol and the Nine Maidens stone circle.

Chun Quoit

Site Type: Chambered Cairn

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.

Boskednan stone circle
Date Added: 10th Dec 2024
Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Yes on 2nd May 2016. My rating: Condition 3 Ambience 5 Access 3
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 on 1st Apr 2016. My rating: Condition 3 Ambience 3 Access 1
Piskey’s Hall – The Fairy’s Fogou submitted by coin on 3rd Nov 2013. So... Getting to this site is a welcome voyage, arriving at the gate (higher than a normal one) I read a friendly sign- warning me of a bull... So the landowner obviously doesn't want people visiting this site. Climbing over the gate I am affronted with another welcoming feature- electric fence. Slipping under the offending wire, and edging around the field keeping an eye out for the bull of terror, I approach the mound if earth and stones. When I reach it, I am presented with another electric f...

Date Added: 3rd Mar 2017
Site Type: Promontory Fort / Cliff Castle
Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Yes on 1st Jan 2012. My rating: Condition 3 Ambience 4 Access 5
Trevelgue Head submitted by AngieLake on 24th Feb 2006. Looking back from the 'island' of Trevelgue promontory fort, along its north edge, towards the eastern barrow, visible to the right of the hotels. It is a particularly nice place to visit in summer, with the pink 'Thrift' and the turquoise sea with its white breakers.

Date Added: 3rd Mar 2017
Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Would like to visit
The Hurlers (C) submitted by Horatio on 24th Jun 2024. This stone I kept coming back to as a lovely lozenge shape and stood out amongst the more usual upright stones. Apart from its reduced size it wouldn't look amiss on West Kennet Avenue.
