Site Type: Early Christian Sculptured Stone
Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Yes on 3rd Sep 2009
Mayon Farm Cross submitted by AngieLake on 3rd Sep 2009. This is the stile which allows access to the field where the cross lies on the other side of the low bank, centre left. Sennen church tower is visible in the distance, between the stile uprights.
On this evening in May I had followed the footpath around the edge of the field to this stile, and once in the planted field, stepped very carefully between the crop to the low hedge where the cross is situated. You can see where others have done this and worn a slight track, just above the step of ...

Sennen Church
Date Added: 26th Sep 2010
Site Type: Ancient Cross
Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Yes on 3rd Sep 2009
Sennen Church submitted by AngieLake on 3rd Sep 2009. The large cross near the road in Sennen Churchyard was "moved from the centre of the new cemetery. It earlier served as a footbridge across a small stream north-east of Trevear for some years during the early 19th century, on the route of a very ancient pack-horse road via Chapel Carn Brea and Chapel Euny towards Penzance, but once doubtless stood by the side of the track."

Wendron South
Date Added: 15th Jun 2019
Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Would like to visit
Wendron South submitted by TimPrevett on 1st Nov 2002. Wendron / Nine Maidens Stone Circles
SW683365
Parking in layby on the west side of the road opposite the footpath. The path was heavily rutted by cattle, indicating that if it was wet, this would be extremely boggy. Access is over a low point in the wall right next to the stones. Next time I visit I must read the guide books beforehand - two of the stones are actually set in the wall! One still in its original place, the other moved. The field was high with dock when I visited, and had to ...

Giants Grave, Kirksanton submitted by AngieLake on 18th Nov 2005. I wonder if this is what Jack is referring to as the cup-mark on the eastern stone at Kirksanton? (See the large circular mark about 1/3 of the way up the near stone).
