First of all as a new member to this forum I would like to say hi to everyone here.
I am aware that there was a list of cornish Letterboxes as i found a topic about it, however when i click the link i get an error saying the site does not exist. Does anyone have this list who could possibly email it or provide a link. It will be most appreciated and I intend to place some boxes on Bodmin Moor myself as the girlfriend is a good stamp maker I will return the favour by providing clues.
Thanks in Advance

There is also this web site that may be of interest
www.gamblenet.me.uk/default.asp
I think it was designed to be a replacement for The Dartmoor Bounders' site.

Great looking site! Loads more on there that I would have missed.
Thankyou
Hi I have been collecting the Bodmin stamps for a while now not got them all but have a good idea of whats there. Be careful with the gamblenet list as its listing a lot that haven't been on site for a long time. I think the owner is overseas at the moment so it hasn't been updated recently. I would be interested in exchanging any clues for your boxes you mentioned, best regards DJ
Hi, I recently went to bodmin moor (rougtor) whilst geocaching I looked for a few but did not find them. I didnt really have enough time to really go through the list I have but im sure there were not some there. Would it be possible for you to send me a list of the ones you know may be there so I can start with them?
I live in London so driving to Cornwall to find letterboxes which dont exist can be slightly annoying.
I am going down on the 25th of sept
Regards

Hi 1943,
Yes, my Sharp Tor box was the one in the cave. My other box is the Trewartha Tor/Hawks Tor box.

Great, I looked in the cave for a few minutes and couldnt find it was unsure if it was supposed to be there or not. I have to admit i could not find the Hawks Tor box i spent about 10 mins on it, I will have to have another crack at it.
I also went up to High Rock thinking I would be able to climb it, I stepped onto the first ledge and bottled it.
