Top 10 Monuments & Statues in Cornwall, England

April 13, 2022 Christa Meece

Cornwall is the extreme southwestern peninsula of England. It has the longest stretch of continuous coastline in Britain and it is one of the sunniest areas in the UK. With picturesque villages, Celtic ruins, light blue waters, gardens and parks and unique architecture it certainly is among the most scenic areas of England. Home of many events and festivals and the land of Cornish pasty, it is definitely worth visiting.

King Doniert's Stone

Reviewed By 123_Sussex_UK - Horsham, United Kingdom

Firstly, please don't expect a huge monument when visiting. You'll see from the photos that the site is just a couple of stone pillars in a plot of land the size of a typical back garden. That said it is worth a visit if you are passing on the A38; it's about a three mile each way detour. It's not well sign posted and the first you will know is when you see the layby that has room for 2-3 cars. So park up and hop out and see this unique free to park and free to visit piece of English history. There is a plaque there giving you the whole story. If you allowed a whole hour including the time to take the detour you would have time to spare. It's also very close to Golitha Falls and the Hurlers so be sure to visit there too. If you set aside 4+ hours you could do the three sites comfortably
