Barrow Cemetery in Cornwall

Four of a group of Barrows - none in great condition.
HER 249.10, 249.20, 249.30 & 250.10
Of Barrow 250.10 the HER says, 'There were seven or eight stones on end" including three with cup-marks, pit-marks and meandering grooves' these are now removed from the site w/ one of the cupmarkedstones being lost or not having existed in the first place! - noone is sure.
