Sorry Rhiannon, I couldn’t find the Giant’s Chair on the southwest side of the hill. This was the only vaguely chair-like outcrop I found, but it was on the northwest slopes so not even in the right place.

The National Trust Heritage records suggest that this may be a small tor cairn, built around a natural outcrop.

A further possible hut circle on the summit next to the previous one.

A further possible circular feature conjoined to the hut circle or ring cairn in the first picture. This might suggest an arrangement like that on the top of Bartinne.

Another hut circle (or ring cairn) on the summit.

A fine hut circle, or possible ring cairn on the summit of Godolphin Hill. Looking towards Castle Pencaire hillfort.

Mulfra Hill B barrow.

Some of the houses are now getting very overgrown.

Looking towards the Watch Croft cairns we had visited before coming up here.

The northern arc of kerbing on the southern cairn, looking towards Nine Maidens of Boskednan.

Substantial kerbs on the southern cairn. Looking towards the summit. The standing stone can just be seen on the skyline.

Kerbing on the southwestern edge of the southern cairn.

The cairn lying due south of the summit.

The northeastern edge of the cairn to the southwest of the summit is build around a large granite rock, possibly a natural outcrop. Looking towards the summit, with its own monuments.

Stonework within the cairn southwest of the summit.

Kerbing on the southwestern edge of the cairn southwest of the summit.

The cairn southwest from the summit. The kerbing on the east side is unusual (if original) as it’s formed of more than one course.
