St Eval Church Stones
Date Added: 29th Oct 2019
Site Type: Standing Stones
Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Yes on 29th Nov 2012
St Eval Church Stones submitted by theCaptain on 29th Nov 2012. St Eval churchyard supposedly has several large standing stones within it and the wall surrounding it, but I was unprepared and didn't know how many or where to look; as a result I only found one of the 3 or more standing stones in its surrounding wall.

Zennor Churchyard Crosses
Date Added: 29th Oct 2019
Site Type: Ancient Cross
Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Yes on 18th Dec 2012
Zennor Churchyard Crosses submitted by theCaptain on 18th Dec 2012. Not strictly speaking megalithic, but while at Zennor it would be almost criminal not to pay your respects to the Mermaid.
Within St Senara's church, the Mermaid on her small pew is now carefully displayed, with the daylight of a big south window lighting her up. Tremendous.
The church notes suggest it is of medieval origin, more than 600 years old.

Trowlesworthy West enclosure
Date Added: 29th Oct 2019
Site Type: Ring Cairn
Country: England (Devon)
Visited: Yes on 22nd May 2013
Trowlesworthy West enclosure submitted by TheCaptain on 22nd May 2013. A little way from the downhill end of the western stone row is a circular enclosure, about 10m in diameter.
I am not sure whether this is some kind of settlement enclosure (too big for hut circle, too small for animal enclosure) or perhaps a ring cairn.

Country: England (Devon)
Visited: Yes on 23rd May 2013
Ringmoor Down Cairn 3 submitted by TheCaptain on 23rd May 2013. Ringmoor Down Cairn 3 does not look entirely convincing to me. It consists of a circle of fairly small stones of which only one or two are earthfast.
There are no obvious cairn remains within this circle.
