Prehistory Guy Michael Bott visits the muchloved site of BoskawenÛn in Cornwall and finds one or two surprises!

The site dates from the late Neolithicearly Bronze Age (approx. 25001500 BC) and consists of an ellipse circle of 19 stones, ranging in height from 0.9m (3ft) to 1.4m (4.5ft). One of these stones on the NE side is made of almost pure white quartz. In addition, there is an offcentre leaning stone 2.4m (8ft) high. It is not known whether this stone was always leaning at this angle or whether it has slipped over the years. In the NE side of the circle there is a jumble of stones that may have been part of a burial cist.
