A foggy August morning greeted me on my latest pilgrimage to find the Hurlers stone circles. On the way I stopped at King Doniert’s Stone. According to English Heritage “These two fragments, one of which is known as King Doniert’s Stone, are the only surviving examples of 9th-century stone crosses in Cornwall. The inscription on […]
Cornwall Celtic Sites
In Search of Brent Tor 9/8/24
I have been house sitting in Lostwithiel, so I thought I would make the most of these few days to explore the megalithic sites in the area and Brent Tor has been on my bucket list for some time. Unlike many other sites, this one is easy to find. However, you can easily miss the […]
In Search of Alsia Well 5/7/24
I stumbled on Alsia Well (pronounced Ay lee ah) when reading an article in the marymichaelpilgrimsway. I had not heard of this sacred well before and not surprising, as there are no sign posts whatsoever. As it was the day of the New Moon, I thought I would hop on my local bus and just […]
Carn Les Boels Harmony Day 19/6/24
Mother nature was good to us all here in West Penwith. No rain, some clouds, some blue sky and sunshine with a breeze. The north coast might have been a bit more windy but I was fairly sheltered on my walk from Lands End to Carn Les Boels. This was my first attempt from a […]
In search of the Holy Well at Sancreed
What a perfect morning. Everything went to clockwork (and I missed the rain). I got my bus from Relubbus on time. Got the number 8 bus from Penzance to Sancreed on time and met a lovely lady on the bus who directed me to the well and who I chatted to on the way back […]
In search of Zennor Quoit 24 February 2024
My goal for this journey was to find the Quoit and to find a gentler route to Zennor Hill. Here are some directions. Again, Zennor Quoit is not an easy place to find as no sign posts! Feeling a little bit better on this day, I was propelled forward by the beautiful rainbow (see featured […]
In search of the Zennor Logan Stone
As is often the case, these sacred sites are not easy to find, so a blog with directions and photos is what was needed. For those of you who are interested, a Logan Stone is a rocking stone. I have not been well for the past week so I thought a walk in the fresh […]

Imbolc Blessings
Now is the time to burn your old Brigit’s Cross and replace it with a new one, strategically placed by your front door. I have a selection of Brigit’s Crosses for those who don’t know how to make them. In the photo, the top two are made with Heather foraged from the Apollo line at […]
17 January 2024 – First Blog Since January 2023
Happy New Year to you all from beautiful Cornwall (albeit belated). Several people have queried as to why I have not been active on my website. Well the reason is, in February 2023, the builders cut through my internet cable and I also no longer had a desk top to use. But all OK now […]
Some Magickal Reflections on 2021
It’s been a few months since I last posted a blog and the Shirley Battie Little Owl Card that presented itself to me yesterday, number 48, has prompted me to start blogging again. It reads “Words, words, words. Words are powerful but action is more so………. in words consolidate by giving written true examples”. One […]
Madron Celtic Chapel Cornwall
Here are some photos taken at the Celtic Chapel at Madron which is a spiritual place built on a Pagan site. Completely on our own, in the middle of nowhere, amongst fields and a faery glade.
Madron Holy Well Cornwall
It’s a while since I have contacted the “outside” world, however life has been so hectic this summer, balancing work, a trip to France and my various trips to Cornwall. It is my latest trip to Cornwall that I am writing about. Being one of those people who takes photos rather than being photographed, I […]
