Logan Rock (Treryn Dinas)
Logan Rock
An 80-tonne rocking stone on an Iron Age cliff-fort headland. In 1824, a naval officer pushed it off its balance, sparked public outrage, and was ordered to re-erect it at his own expense.
Logan Rock sits on the Treryn Dinas headland and was once a 'logging stone' that could be rocked with a light push. In 1824, Lieutenant Goodenough and his men pushed it off its perch, causing public anger. He was required to restore it at his own expense, which cost him a considerable sum. A walk of about 15 minutes from the village of Treen leads to the headland, with views over Porthcurno and the Pedn Vounder beach. Climbing on the rocks requires caution. Entry is free.
