Stripple Stones

Cornish Collection

An update on the work that was carried out last summer. It does make you realise all the formalities that have to be done before even a megalithic site can be highlighted and restored to some degree - all to the good, and I hope the next undertaking will go just as well Roy.

Thank you moss, I hope to have some news shortly.

There are now 11 stones standing (two are oddly shaped in a way that suggests they were broken either when or after they fell) and the wall through the site has gone. I'd forgotten that work had been done, so was a bit shocked to find the stones back up, in a good way. The stones are *big*!

Made an unexpected highlight of a great day - King Arthur's Hall>Emblance Downs circles>Leaze circle (no access trouble at all)>Hawk's Tor>Stripple Stones>Trippet Stones, some round houses on the way.
