We then saw another underground fogou: Boleigh fogou near St Buryan (Cornwall 🇬🇧) on private land. We phoned beforehand to arrange the visit. Again, exact purpose unknown. A ritual doorway? The garden it was located in a garden that seemed to really mirror the temperate rainforest that would grow in Cornwall, had it not been grazed & cleared over centuries of settlement. There was meant to be a carved figure near the door but even with imagination couldn’t make it out. #StandingStoneSunday #fogou
