A very unspoilt village on the Roseland part of Cornwall. These houses were built by the Trist Family in the early 19th Century and situated at the entrances to the village - these private thatched circular cottages have become a unique feature of Veryan.It was thought that the round shape would guard the village from evil as there were no corners in which the devil could hide.

Caption came with the photograph.

I like the folk story that goes with these lovely cottages.
Perhaps another visit to these shores Lynette?

Interesting history, seems there are five of these round houses, all with crosses on top originally.
