In 1870-72, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales described Mulfra like this:
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.
Mulfra is now part of CORNWALL Unitary Authority. Click here for graphs and data of how CORNWALL has changed over two centuries. For statistics about Mulfra itself, go to Statistics.
