The church of St Ia on the harbour edge before the building of the West Pier in 1894; up until the 17th century 'there was a field between the churchyard wall and Porth Cocking rock, and sheep grazed upon it', but it was washed away by the sea...

These two stones are in the grounds of Trengweath hospital,Redruth, they have a modern feel but l cannot find anything about thempic.twitter.com/Xe8T6fQGwE
The pillars are both from a presumed lost medieval chapel at Carn Brea and were found in the walls of a cottage demolished in c.1910; the cross is a possible defaced medieval cross of unknown provenance :)
Thanks for that, the hospital is closing and presumed to be sold,so whether anything ought to be about them?
Hopefully they'll be kept safe by the new owners; should be flagged up before any work done by a HER check as are on the Cornwall HER :-/
Great.but it would be lovely to secure public access to them.
