Trethevy Quoit

Trethevy Quoit is a well-preserved megalithic structure between St Cleer and Darite in Cornwall, England [1]. Trethevy Quoit is north of Liskeard in the hamlet of Tremar Coombe [1]. In the 19th century William Copeland Borlase studied the site and made drawings of it [1]. Recent excavations showed that this type of megalith was erected in the Neolithic period between 3700 and 3500 BC and such megaliths may have been used over a long period of time as religious structures or community graves [1].
