Four Parishes Rock
Date Added: 14th Jan 2024
Site Type: Sculptured Stone
Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Yes on 14th Jan 2024. My rating: Condition 2 Ambience 3 Access 4
Four Parishes Rock submitted by Bladup on 4th Dec 2017.

The Hurlers Pipers submitted by JimChampion on 24th Aug 2007.

These two stones stand to the west of the Hurlers stone circles. The dung in the foreground is from the ponies that graze the moor.
