Grey Wethers. submitted by hamish on 14th Nov 2005. This is the circles seen on approach from the east. Not the way I would suggest as it is a difficult walk. The tussucky grass and the bogs make for strenuous effort.

Country: England (Devon)
Visited: Yes on 12th Sep 2009
Bennet's Cross submitted by hamish on 12th Sep 2009. Bennett's Cross, possibly a marker stone from the Neolithic times. There is a lot of significance in this area so the trick would be what it was marking, but great to see.

Carn Brea Enclosure submitted by hamish on 7th Apr 2002. Carn Brea Near Redruth
SW684412
Explorer 104
Go to Carnkie on the south side of Carn Brea and take a narrow and sometimes bumpy lane to the top,there is plenty of parking spots.Between the restaurant and the monument are some amazing rock formations.
These may be Neolithic or just wind and rain scoured but works of art just the same.

The path to get here is not for the faint hearted,it is very rutted and slippery.When you get to the Quoit the effort is well worth while.A magnificent monument with tremendous views.
