Mayon Cliff cairn
Date Added: 2nd Aug 2024
Site Type: Cairn
Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Yes on 2nd Aug 2024
Mayon Cliff cairn submitted by JimChampion on 31st Aug 2008. The cairn on Mayon Cliff, not listed as a scheduled monument by English Heritage. It is in fairly bad condition, but still recognisable on this exposed headland where the elements and visitor pressure keep the vegetation right down. The island in the distance is the Brisons and Cape Cornwall can be seen poking in from the right.

Boskenna Cross submitted by enkidu41 on 15th Nov 2004. The shot shows the principal face of the cross with its depiction of Christ.
The three-part base is out of all proportion to the cross. The look of stability is deceptive given its three damaging brushed with modern traffic!

St Ann's Well (Great Malvern)
Date Added: 28th Aug 2022
Site Type: Holy Well or Sacred Spring
Country: England (Herefordshire)
Visited: Yes on 28th Aug 2022
St Ann's Well (Great Malvern) submitted by AJK on 3rd Sep 2006. St. Anne was well known in the Middle Ages as a patroness of wells & springs. Cottagers probably lived here as early as the 13th century, near the site of an even older monk's hermitage. The purity of the water attracted 18th century visitors and the pump room and baths were built between 1815-1819. By the 1850's, the heyday of Malvern's spa, this became the most popular of the hill-springs for the spa's visitors. During the summer months, a German band regularly played here.
