In another of our series of video tours of a selection of the ancient sites of West Cornwall, this time we take a look at the Bosiliack Barrow, a small Neolithic (3000-2500 B.C.) Scillonian entrance grave consisting of a 16 foot (5m) diameter circular mound of stones. The kerb of larger slabs is pierced by a passageway that faces the rising of the midwinter sun.
The barrow can be found situated to the north-east of Lanyon Farm, a short walk north from Lanyon Quoit.
If there’s a specific site you’d like to see covered in this series, please leave a comment and I’ll see what I can do.
