Lanyon Quoit in West Penwith, Cornwall is the remains of the burial chamber of a Neolithic long barrow. The capstone, which weighs about 13 tonnes, fell in a storm in the early 19th century and when it was replaced in 1824 the uprights were buried much deeper than their original position for extra stability. It dominates its position in the moorland landscape.
