Chun Quoit

Chun Quoit
The cutest quoit in Cornwall (there are a few equally cute dolmens in Brittany and elsewhere in Europe).
Neolithic burial chamber; would have originally been buried completely under a mound of smaller stones and earth but 6,000 years of Cornish weather has easily disposed of all that!

Thank you, Keith. It's simply the Cornish word for Dolmen, only used in Cornwall.
