Trethevy Quoit

Dolmen / Quoit / Cromlech

Fieldnotes

Many years ago I lived in Darite and Trethevy Quoit was a popular place to visit. However, one mystery always nagged at the back of my mind, what was that hole in the top slab for? Some reports suggest that it was carved by a young man as a tribute to his sweetheart. Can anyone shed any light on this?

Trethevy Quoit has to be one of the best preserved sites I have visited, in spite of being so accessible.
