Site clearances currently take place every month in the West Penwith area, organised by the Ancient Sites Maintenance Co-ordinator. We target those sites most in need of care and conservation, and the work typically involves removing any rubbish and debris, and clearing the site of damaging scrub and vegetation to enable native flora and fauna to flourish, and ensure year-round accessibility.
Volunteers of all ages and abilities are always welcome, and tools and gloves will be provided on the day. If you would like to come and help please contact Dave Munday on 01736-787230 or dave@cornishancientsites.com
