Creeg Tol
Date Added: 22nd Oct 2010
Site Type: Rock Outcrop
Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Yes
Creeg Tol basin submitted by AngieLake on 22nd Mar 2004. This is the Creeg Tol basin (not the Giant's Footprints - they are on a big stone to the right of this).
It struck me that this would be a very suitable ceremonial site, standing here, using the basin to anoint some leader (possibly?), who may have stood on the natural platform just underneath it, (lower right in pic) in sight of Boscawen Un, (top centre) and - looking down upon the tiny Creeg Tol "circle". (Out of sight, below right).
The whole setting has a strange atmosphere. I almost won...

St Stephen's Well
Date Added: 16th Nov 2011
Site Type: Holy Well or Sacred Spring
Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Yes
St Stephen's Well submitted by KiwiBetsy on 15th Oct 2006. When we visited the water level in the interior of the wellhouse was not high enough to flow over the low part in the front. The old collegiate church in Launceston was consecrated by Bishop Bronescombe in 1259 and dedicated to St Stephen. The current St Stephen’s Church stands about half a mile to the east of the well. Very little seems to be known about the well but it does sit up a very pretty and peaceful lane.

Eye Well submitted by KiwiBetsy on 5th Oct 2006. The well’s sign says “With a tablet stone dated 1700 this well once had a reputation for healing weak and troubled eyes and supplied water for the local inhabitants. The name Bree comes from the Cornish word ‘bre’ which means hill and survives from the 15th and 16th century Priory administration, where ‘Breest’ appeared in account rolls of rent paying tenants showing the ‘hillside east’ was then occupied.

Burras submitted by TimPrevett on 1st Nov 2002. Burras Menhir at Lezerea Farm
SW680344
This spectacularly huge stone (9.8ft) has just one detracting feature - it was set in a concrete base in 1971! Permission is required to visit, and it was cheerfully given me.
On return of the photos, I couldn't help notice the little face near the bottom of the stone.
