Burnthouse exhales a quietude that settles upon the Cornish lanes like the soft dust of ages. It lies 2.8 km north-west of Penryn (from Penryn: bearing 321°T, OS grid SW 768 366), and is situated south-east of Ponsanooth village. The air here carries the faint, sweet scent of damp earth and hedgerow blossoms, a subtle perfume that seems to cling to the weathered stone of the scattered cottages. Sunlight, when it breaks through, possesses a peculiar clarity, illuminating the mosses that creep over ancient granite walls with an almost luminous green. The land around Burnthouse gently inclines, suggesting a past where water, perhaps a small stream long since gone, might have shaped the contours of the fields.
