Men-an-Tol Studio publish several excellent pamphlets for the Lands End peninsula, full of historical info, suggested walks with maps, etc. Highly recommended.

When visiting the Men-an-Tol area we called in at the publisher's studio and met Ian McNeil Cooke, the guy who writes the pamphlets. Very friendly and approachable, and he even let us leave our bikes round the back while we went for a stones walk.

You can get the pamphlets in tourist info places (Penzance was where I found my first one), or from the publisher direct

Regarding Boleigh Fogou, CAER werre still going when we visited. We found a really arsey sign saying not to visit the fogou without permission, but not to even knock for permission without prior appointment!

Fuck 'em and their overproprietorial Gollumesque 'it's MY preciousssss' attitude.
