Description Two-photo composite image of Trethevy Quoit. I was surprised to find that the quoit was right next to a row of houses, probably for two reasons. One - the other quoits I'd visited (in West Penwith) were all in fairly remote locations. Two - all the photographs I'd previously seen of it had been carefully composed in order to avoid or hide the houses. Here it is in all its back-garden glory.

Thanks for this Jim... I thought it was a crying shame when I saw those houses too! How *could* they do that?

True! (I wonder if those sleepless folk ever see any 'fairy lights'???)
