Chysauster Fogou submitted by enkidu41 on 26th Apr 2004. SW 4720 3483
Only 2 roofing lintels remain of this fogou associated with Chysauster Courtyard House village. The English Heritage response to the cost of restoration is sadly predictable.

Figgy Dowdy's Well

Site Type: Holy Well or Sacred Spring

Visited: Would like to visit
Figgy Dowdy's Well submitted by KiwiBetsy on 26th Aug 2006.

…. is associated with the well.
