Entrance way to the fogou at Carn Euny, Cornwall #129602378
Description
Carn Euny is an archaeological site near Sancreed, on the Penwith peninsula in Cornwall, UK with considerable evidence of both Iron Age and post-Iron Age settlement. Carn Euny is best known for the well-preserved state of the large fogou, an underground passageway, which is more than 65 feet 20 metres long. This fogou runs just below the surface of the ground and is roofed with massive stone slabs. The site was abandoned late in the Roman period.
