Bigstones

Nearest Town: St Buryan, Cornwall

OS Grid Reference: SW 433 245

Directions: On the B3315 between Penzance and Lands End. Small signpost and layby. A pair of standing stones known as the Pipers can be seen in the field on the opposite side of the road.

Site Notes: A lovely, very round, very perfect circle made up of regular waist high stones. The weather was pretty awful at the time of our visit, which did detract from the site. Standing in a grazed field, with regular walls & hedges around, it was hard to get the sense of wildness that you associate with the circles on moorland. Surrounded by other sites, at the very end of the prehistoric world, it must have been quite a place. If you can close out the modern world, it still is.
