      Finally, Charles Thomas suggests that the Neolithic tor enclosure and Iron Age multivallate hillfort of Trencrom Hill, which is located 1.5 miles to the west of the Hayle Estuary & overlooks it, may have also played a role in the 'post-Roman' era...pic.twitter.com/KedVo7wJKx

      Looking out towards St Ives Bay and Godrevy Lighthouse from Trencrom Hill, Cornwall; an early medieval inscribed stone has been identified in a stile at the foot of the hillfort & there are reports of early medieval grass-marked wares having been found on the fort itself.pic.twitter.com/KiIFOgHJgY

      Looking back to Phillack (Cornwall), there are a number of interesting pre-Conquest finds from here in addition to the stone sculpture mentioned above; for example, this late 10th-century cut silver halfpenny of Æthelræd II (978–1016), found near the church.pic.twitter.com/5V4h8IDqBE

      A silver penny of Cnut (1016–35), Posthumous Type (1035–6), minted at Exeter and found at Phillack, Cornwall; a coin of Harthacnut dated 1036–7 was also found nearby.pic.twitter.com/0XeAdQAcIu

      Phillack isn't the only Cornish site to have produced a 5th-century Chi-Rho stone; another was found at St Helen's Chapel, Cape Cornwall...pic.twitter.com/3a8tg5kfbt

      Unfortunately, only a drawing of the Chi-Rho stone from Cape Cornwall survives (right; left=Phillack); the stone was taken to St Just church where it was displayed for a while, until a Rector who objected to it as too 'Roman Catholic' had it thrown down a well in the 19thC!pic.twitter.com/2FEWnTgLHf

          A view through the probably Iron Age east entrance to Trencrom hillfort, with Carn Brea (likewise reoccupied in the Iron Age) visible through it on the horizon; between the two is the Hayle Estuary and the small Iron Age hillfort of Carnsew, mentioned above.pic.twitter.com/wbwA2uIFOx

          Looking along the railway line at Lelant towards the site of the buried early medieval chapel & late/post-Roman burial site that was encountered under the dunes of Lelant Towans in 1875 during the construction of the railway link to St Ives.pic.twitter.com/yqvfVehHVv

          I only hope this lovely place does not get destroyed by the hordes who are making life a misery for good honest people who actually care about it.
