Merry Maidens - Cornish Myths Episode 2

The Merry Maidens stone circle has stood in a remote field in West Penwith for thousands of years, but the story behind these stones is a Victorian morality tale to scare young girls. If you want to visit the Merry Maidens, they can be found just off the B3315, about 4 miles west of Penzance.
