Lanyon Quoit is located northwest of Penzance on the road between Madron and Morvah, about 2 miles from Morvah. It stands only about 50 metres to the east of the road and is therefore is relatively easy to locate. In the eighteenth century the quoit had four supporting stones and the structure was tall enough for a person on horseback to ride under. However, in 1815, Lanyon Quoit fell down in a storm. Nine years later enough money was raised by local inhabitants to re-erect the structure.
