Carolyn Kennett (CarolynK on TMA) took us to this special site. A gap between the rock of the tor forms an aperture that frames Carn Galva to the west. The midsummer sunset can be viewed sinking along the crest of the rocky ridge.

Whether it's a natural arrangement or has been set up to give this view, I guess we'll never be sure.
