Editing Mên-an-Tol (section)

==Description==
The Mên-an-Tol consists of three upright [[granite]] stones: a round stone with its middle holed out with two standing stones to each side, in front of and behind the hole.

The two side stones are both about 1.2 metres high. The westernmost stone was moved and brought into a straight line with the other two stones sometime after 1815.<ref name="pastscape">[http://www.pastscape.org.uk/hob.aspx?hob_id=424271 MEN AN TOL], Pastscape, retrieved 9 November 2013</ref> The holed stone is roughly octagonal in outline. It is 1.3 metres wide and 1.1 metres high; the circular hole is 0.5 m in diameter.<ref name="pastscape"/> The only other holed stone in Cornwall of this type is the [[Tolvan holed stone]] which can be seen in a garden near [[Helston]].

There is one other standing stone nearby, and six recumbent stones, some of which are buried.<ref name="pastscape"/> A [[cairn]] exists as a low stony mound just to the southeast. There are two other early Bronze Age barrows or cairns between 120 and 150 metres to the north.<ref name="pastscape"/>
