Trethevey Roman Stone
Trethevey Roman Stone submitted by rogerkread : The inscription isn't easy to read directly off the stone owing to lichen growth, but the plaque next to it provides the details and an attempt at a translation of the Latin. (Vote or comment on this photo)
A short walk down the track heading south from St Piran's Well and the church at Trethevey leads you to this well cared for Inscribed Stone from Roman times. The plaque next to it explains that it was found nearby being used as a gatepost. Not a milepost but possibly related to the one in the church at Tintagel.
