Help Please!

> ...and the barrow at Veryan.....driven through but only stopped to walk round once...famous for its round houses...no, not that sort, these are "modern" and sit at either ends of the village.

I didn't see a barrow - duH! I was too busy avoiding the glares I was getting from the locals! The circular houses are worth a look - that and the rather aggressively fenced-in and christianised holy well all point to a rather paranoid little place! But it is pretty, and worth stopping off just to annoy the locals. ;o)

> Next time your at Fowey get in touch if you fancy a pint or a walk.

I'd love to! You've asked for it now! Do you live in Fowey then? That's a purty little place. We go there just to visit even when we're not staying in Readymoney. We ALWAYS go out of season so thankfully don't get caught up in all the yachty things - same as when we're in Rock, really...

Veryan beacon is the largest bronze age barrow in the county......haven't got to it myself but there are 4 photos on the TMA.

No, I don't live in Fowey...can't afford a garage overthere! I live the other side of the river about three miles east towards Polperro in a hamlet called Trenewan. The Old Ferry Inn at Bodinnick is my local although i have been known to frequent both the Russel and the Lugger in Polruan.
