If Giants…
*
*
Could construct…
*
*
Balance-Stones…
*
*
They would look a little like this…
*
*
And for those still in need of perspective…

‘TAKE A LOOK AT THESE HANDS’…
If these stone structures are produced by ‘nature’s hand’,
it may be salutory to consider ‘modern man’s hand’ in contrast,
which has, by quarrying, made a ‘bit of a mess’ of what was once
a ‘hill-fort’ possessing as much beauty as that of Carn les Boel or Carl Wark.

Getting to the Hurlers proved easy enough…
*
*
Clustered, as they were, around the extremities of Bodmin Moor…
*
*
But the weather closed in…
*
*
Almost as soon as we set foot to turf…
*
*
Which made the prospect of a climb up to the Cheesewring, and Stowe’s Pound, a decidely unlikely event…
*
*
We walked as far as we could before caution proved the better part of valour…
*
*
And then, the sun came out…
*
*
Somebody, somewhere, muttered something about stones and humour.
