Megalithic Mumblings

occasional random thoughts, diary entries and anything else I deem worthy of inclusion, such as accounts of my erstwhile forays amongst the ancient sites of Britain. Several of the posts here first appeared on the Modern Antiquarian or Heritage Action web sites.

Wandering in the West

Awoke to a very grey and wet day. Heavy rain, but with what looked like fog a couple of fields away. We stocked up on petrol, then took a recce drive around Mulfra and up toward New Mill, then around St Ives and into the grounds at Tregenna Castle to scope out the hotel there and the prices!

After a short break at Lelant, to confirm lunch arrangements with Janice & Paul, we popped over to towards Helston and Sithney, for a cream tea at the Handy Shop.

We then took a slow drive back through Leedstown and Fraddam to Hayle for some shopping. All too soon, it was time for lunch so we headed across to Balnoon for a very pleasant carvery lunch.

Fully replete, we headed around the coast road, intending to recce some more sites, but sadly Mikki felt unwell, so after a short break at Trevean Cliff to see if she'd improve, we headed back to Kenegie so she could have a rest.
