Track to Roughlands Farm One of several farm roads setting off from this point on the edge of the eastern arm of Sprey Moor. The ram, by the group of trees in the centre, straddles the easting gridline. Beyond, in SX1676 and SX1677, are Priddacombe and Priddacombe Downs.
Ford and bridge near Palmersbridge in the civil parish of Altarnun in the county of Cornwall. Footpath 502/21/3 crosses the River Fowey on a charming footpath (notwithstanding a few maintenance issues).
Holy Trinity Church, Bolventor The church dates from 1848. It became cut off from the main part of the hamlet when the A30 dual carriageway was built, and closed in the 1990s. By the main gate is a planning application (dated April 2008) to convert it into 3-bedroomed residential accommodation. The churchyard is obviously well looked-after.
