Looking across the obvious cist to distant Cape Cornwall

Quite a decent monument for such an exposed – to the tourist boot – location..

Looking southwest(ish) towards some place called Land’s End? Apparently.

The pulverised wreck of the MV RMS Mulheim lies, unseen, below in Castle Zawn. Careful of that edge, now.

Pretty impressive defences, it has to be said.

The powerful cross-bank with rock-cut ditch and counterscarp.

Didn’t think I was going to like this... but I did. Pretty special.

Towards Carn Boel. The Longships can be seen top left of image.

Looking very approx south across the Pendower Coves to Carn Barra.

Towards Nanjizal / Mill Bay... wonder what the locals call it?
Image credit: Robert Gladstone
When one first arrives there doesn’t appear much here... from a specific antiquarian point of view... however tune in the radar and it is clear that cross bank does exactly what it needs to.

Anyone for bob-buttons? Legendary giant mayhem at Trencrom Hill, near St. Ives, Cornwall
Langstone Downs and Sharp Tor
Every girl’s crazy ‘bout a Sharp-Profiled-Tor. Yeah, right.
Every boy’s crazy ‘bout a Sharp Profiled Tor. Some, anyway.

Luckily this wondrous little monument is now clear of vegetation. The onward route beckons to Langstone Downs...

The Langstone Downs trio of cairns crowns the skyline... with the lovely little ‘tramway’ cist nearer to hand.

Looking very approx southeast across the long cairn

The long cairn from the track... Duh, that was easy, then.

Impressed with this... much more here than I had thought. Rain had stopped, too.. sunburst! Sharp Tor rises beyond, this horseshoe walk’s final port of call.

Stowe’s Pound (right) and Caradon Hill from the wondrous Sharp Tor. The Hurlers are betwixt the two...

Sharp Tor can be seen beyond... well worth a clamber since it is an excellent viewpoint.
