TheCaptain visited on 10th Jun 2023 Big walk round the Botallack mines area today, starting off by walking up to the top of Carn Kenidjack. Some lovely cattle grazing up here, who don't seem to mind my presence as I greet them all. I am not convinced of anything other than natural up here. Everything is hazy up here today with a sea mist rolling in, so I miss out on the views.

The slab is substantial and has the appearance of a capstone from a distance. It is easily visible from Chun Quoit 1.7km away. Standing at Chun Quoit in the Neolithic an observer would see the winter solstice sunset behind this propped feature.
