MULFRA, a hamlet and a hill in the S W of Cornwall; 3¾ miles N N W of Penzance. The hill commands a fine distant view of Mounts bay; and is crowned by acromlech, called Mulfra Quoit, the table-stone of which has fallen from its proper position, and rests slantingly against three of the supporting stones.
(John Marius Wilson, Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales (1870-72))
