Interestingly, there is evidence for Late Roman trading links between the Hayle Estuary & the eastern Mediterranean too, prefiguring the better-known 5th-/6th-century links between this area & Cornwall e.g. coin of Constantius II, mint of Alexandria, c. AD 340, found at Phillack.pic.twitter.com/JIFKY3YPms
If there was a probable 5th-century AD and later ecclesiastical centre (possibly monastic in character) with continental links in the Hayle Estuary at Phillack, there may also have been a secular centre too at Carnsew Hillfort.pic.twitter.com/r6K4Swvamq
Carnsew Hillfort, Hayle — a small coastal multivallate Iron Age hillfort that commands the entrance to the Hayle Estuary and sits atop a low cliff around 15 metres high: http://www.caitlingreen.org/2018/05/phillack-and-the-hayle-estuary.html …pic.twitter.com/6futbJtxZJ
Although Carnsew Hillfort is unexcavated, there is evidence for post-Roman activity here via a late 5th- or very early 6th-century AD burial & associated inscribed memorial stone (the Cunaide Stone) that originally stood at the foot of the hillfort: http://www.ucl.ac.uk/archaeology/cisp/database/stone/hayle_1.html …pic.twitter.com/uUGRhLiJbt

Incidentally, Phillack Church is also visible from the ramparts of Carnsew Hillfort, with the sand dunes of The Towans rising up behind it.pic.twitter.com/XZbDoulEJi
A Late Roman coin hoard deposited in a bronze container in the late 3rd century AD; it was found a little to the west of Carnsew Hillfort in 1825, when workmen were taking away the upper part of the cliff and the adjoining field during the construction of the Hayle causeway.pic.twitter.com/NNyfNFqhZ4
Inside the ramparts of Carnsew Hillfort, Hayle; unfortunately, the hillfort has been partially destroyed by ploughing, a deep railway cutting, and the construction of an ornamental park along its ramparts in 1845 ('The Plantation').pic.twitter.com/QQ2QeqcS6a
Nothing good comes of 'plantations' ! This thread is fascinating. Ty.
You've just made me want to go back to St Ives & explore the surrounding area. Only finally visited for the first time in 2007, but fell in love with the place, especially Hepworth's house & garden ... 
Oh, you totally should! And I love Hepworth's garden, one of my very favourite places! :)
