Not every day can bring sunshine!
It wasn't misty a few minutes before!

Carn Galva, Carn Galver tin mine, The Count House and Rosemergy Farm. Commando Ridge can just be seen too. The weather can change here in the blink of an eye. My car was down there and I recall driving home in thick fog!

Chun Quoit (quoit = Cornish for dolmen). Although small, it is the best preserved quoit in Cornwall. All the others have dislodged capstones or some other disturbance. These are presumed to be burial chambers but no burial remains have ever been found. They were all originally buried under a mound of stones and earth but erosion in the harsh environment of West Penwith and the action of tomb robbers has meant that you can see the vestiges of the mound only at one quoit; here, at Chun. Estimated to be approx. 6,000 years old.
Sited in Morvah parish, West Penwith, Cornwall. Misspelt Quiot on Google maps!
