Mulfra Quoit, Neolithic dolmen on Mulfra Hill, Cornwall, England.
The structure consists of three upright stones supporting a massive capstone measuring 3.2 meters by 3.0 meters, weighing approximately 5 tonnes.
The antiquarian William Borlase documented the dolmen in 1769, noting a stone embankment with a 12-meter diameter surrounding the megalithic structure.
This burial chamber represents the engineering methods and funerary practices of Neolithic communities who constructed similar monuments across Cornwall.
The monument stands on private land accessible through public footpaths, requiring visitors to navigate through rural terrain to reach the location.
Archaeological excavations in 1872 revealed charred wood at the center of the dolmen, providing evidence of ancient activities at the site.
