Even though it could easily be argued to be the least atmospheric site in Cornwall, something about Tregiffian really did it for me!
I hung about there for ages. Funny how sometimes sites you think are going to be merely a quick tick of the box turn out to totally captivate, and even though the decorated stone is a cast it still hit the spot with me.
That little corner of Penwith with the merry maidens, the pipers, Tregiffian, Ghun rith (spelling?), and Boleigh is out of this world.


Although I'd seen Tregiffian and the Maidens before, I am still amazed that some complete fool allowed a road to be built through the back of the chamber. I also spent a lot of time there ED because for what is now a small site it captures your imagination doesn't it. At the moment I'm enjoying just playing over and over the video I took of all the sites I visited, including of course Tregiffian. Did you notice the single standing stone just off the hedgeline over the road from the chamber?
