historicThe Nine Maidens of Boskednan — a weathered Bronze Age stone circle on the open moor between Madron and Zennor — is among the lesser-visited of Penwith's prehistoric monuments. Nine stones survive from what was originally a larger circle, standing on a broad plateau with views across to the north and south coasts.

Chysauster Ancient Village
historicOne of Britain's best-preserved Iron Age villages, Chysauster has stood on its windswept hillside above the Penwith moorland for two thousand years. The courtyard houses — each with a central open court surrounded by roofed rooms — give a vivid sense of how Romano-British families lived before the Roman conquest. The setting, with views to both coasts, is magnificent.

Mên-an-Tol
historicAmong the most enigmatic of Penwith's prehistoric monuments, the Mên-an-Tol — Cornish for 'stone of the hole' — consists of a circular holed stone flanked by two upright stones. Its purpose remains debated; local tradition held that crawling through the hole nine times could cure rickets in children. The walk across open moorland to reach it is part of the experience.
