We could see this in the distance as we walked from St Buryan to Tregiffian, and it looked serene and beautiful. Approaching it from the foot of the hill reminded me of TV's Stig Of The Dump (the last episode where the kiddies follow Stig out onto the land at night and find him and all the other Stigs erecting a stone circle!). Anyway, the Merry Maidens were kind to us, playing host to a few rays of sunshine on an otherwise grim day. We walked around the circle a couple of times, and observed the suggestion that the distant hills of Bartinne and Chapel Carn Brea have been likened to the breasts of an Earth Goddess ... not really sure about that, they're only A-Cup hills from here. But the circle does have an atmosphere of purity and innocence, so maybe there's a pre-pubescent proto-goddess in them there hills?
