Day 15 - Bodmin - Bodmin Moor: The Hurlers on Saturday, May 18th, 2013

Bodmin Moor, in Cornwall, is relatively high ground that appears desolate and wind blown. However, it has been farmed for over 4,000 years starting in the Bronze Age.

Much of the moor is protected. It is dotted with hundreds of Neolithic stone circles and monuments. 

The Hurlers are three adjacent stone circles, each with a center stone.  We visited them on our first day in the Bodmin, Cornwall area.
