Lanyon Quoit is a Neolithic dolmen. That said, it collapsed in a storm in 1815 and was re-erected nine years later, it is thought that it is now different from its original appearance. The granite capstone weighs more than 12 tons. The quoit stands at the north end of a long barrow, but the barrow has been damaged and is often overgrown and difficult to see.

Cape Cornwall is a much quieter alternative to Land's End and has the added element of being seeped in Cornish Mining History. The chimney of Cape Cornwall Mine, which operated from 1838 to 1883, is still standing on the small peninsula.

Lanyon Quoit is one of Cornwall's best known prehistoric monuments and stands just east of the road from Trevowhan to Madron. Originally built in the neolithic period (3500-2500 BCE), the quoit would have been made up of 4 upright stones. Sadly, due to storm damage, it had to be re-erected in the 19th century and now consists of three granite pillars (1.5m in height) which support a large slab capstone.

Mên-an-Tol is Cornish language and means hole stone. A special megalithic formation about 1 km of hiking trail off the road.
