TheCaptain visited on 18th Jun 2005 - their rating: Cond: 4 Amb: 3 Access: 5 The remains of no less than three granite stèles are to be found lined up in the churchyard at Goulien. One is very small, one about 1.5 metres high and probably once used as a cross base. The third is 2.5 metres tall and has lovely grooves carved into it.
