Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Yes on 1st Jan 2027. My rating: Condition 2 Ambience 3 Access 3
Boskednan A submitted by AngieLake on 15th Oct 2004. This view of the 'destroyed barrow'/cairn near Carn Galva, shows its alignment with Ding Dong mine on the horizon. Boskednan circle is on slightly lower ground not far from here, and on an alignment between the 'barrow'/cairn and the
mine building. The flat sides of the pointed stones face north/south. (This pic was taken at 4pm in March 2004).
The stones sit on a higher ridge at 227m.

Boskednan Menhir 1
Date Added: 30th Apr 2017
Site Type: Standing Stone (Menhir)
Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Yes on 1st Jan 2027. My rating: Condition 3 Ambience 4 Access 3
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?

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.

Site Type: Souterrain (Fogou, Earth House)
Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Yes on 2nd May 2016. My rating: Condition 5 Ambience 5 Access 3
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...

Carn Euny Village submitted by AngieLake on 31st Oct 2004. This view over the Carn Euny Settlement was taken in two shots, which are cobbled together to give an idea of how it looked in March 2004. Bec-Zog's pic is similar to this.

Log Text: Very impressive site. Well kept. Our satnav sent us into a dead end, which turned out quit a long stretch. We were in doubt whether we were on the right way. In the end we got to the hamlet of Brane where we parked the car.

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 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.

Chysauster Fogou submitted by enkidu41 on 26th Apr 2004. SW 4720 3483
Only 2 roofing lintels remain of this fogou associated with Chysauster Courtyard House village. The English Heritage response to the cost of restoration is sadly predictable.
