Dest 07/73. Climbing up onto the right hand gateway platform, a single upright slab (there were probably 4, supporting the horizontal slab) from the original structure can be seen in situ, in hawthorn hedge. My final English platform bolt (1 left in Wales), credit to Dal for first identifying this interesting and distinctive trig subset.

Remains One of the 4 upright slabs is still there. Viewed from W

Logged to complete the known Cornish Platform Bolts. Listed as Destroyed by the OS, and there is no sign of it on the gound. I suspect the farm entrance was modified at some stage, There are some lumps of concrete behind the milk stand, whether any of OS origin, I cannot say.
