Nine Maidens Downs

The Nine Maidens Stone Circle.
This cross once stood at the north of Nine Maidens Downs and marked the boundary between Camborne, Crowan, Wendron and Illogan parishes. It now stands in the grounds of Clowance house. The crossroads was known as Binnerton Cross; the head has a Greek cross on one side and a crude figure of Christ on the other.[1]

Nine Maidens Downs is a moorland southwest of Four Lanes in Cornwall, England, UK.[2]
