This must be unique - I don't recall seeing anything quite like it.

The chambered tomb bears some resemblance I think to Trethevy Quoit but the pair of massive facade slabs is unique for this part of the world. The four posts in front are the beginnings of a shed that a farmer was going to build in 1861 by breaking up the tomb. He was bought off by the local vicar - a member of the Borlase family.
