Rolstone submitted by TheCaptain on 20th Jan 2018. Near Cannaway's Farm, this stone stands in the middle of a field.
Apologies for awful picture. It was a miserable wet and misty day, and the batteries on my camera had died, so this was taken from the fieldgate on my phone.

Site Type: Standing Stones
Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Yes on 29th Nov 2012
St Eval Church Stones submitted by theCaptain on 29th Nov 2012. St Eval churchyard supposedly has several large standing stones within it and the wall surrounding it, but I was unprepared and didn't know how many or where to look; as a result I only found one of the 3 or more standing stones in its surrounding wall.

Moel Goedog 4
Date Added: 29th Oct 2019
Site Type: Standing Stone (Menhir)
Country: Wales (Gwynedd)
Visited: Yes on 25th Jan 2018
Moel Goedog 4 submitted by TheCaptain on 25th Jan 2018. Stones 3 & 4 are in the field to the northwest of where the road splits from the track to Moel Goedog. The field was full of many inquisitive looking black bullocks that all come to have a look at me, and a huge white bull who keeps himself to himself in the corner of the field.
However, I can see the stones within the field, and get some pictures of them between the bullocks. Both are fairly block shaped stones, one of them with a couple of flat fractured faces, the other much more rotund....

Zennor Churchyard Crosses
Date Added: 29th Oct 2019
Site Type: Ancient Cross
Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Yes on 18th Dec 2012
Zennor Churchyard Crosses submitted by theCaptain on 18th Dec 2012. Not strictly speaking megalithic, but while at Zennor it would be almost criminal not to pay your respects to the Mermaid.
Within St Senara's church, the Mermaid on her small pew is now carefully displayed, with the daylight of a big south window lighting her up. Tremendous.
The church notes suggest it is of medieval origin, more than 600 years old.
