Plen-an-gwary


A plen-an-gwary, also known as a playing place or round ((コーンウォール語:Plen an Gwari)), is a medieval Cornish amphitheatre. A circular outdoor space used for plays, sports, and public events, the plen-an-gwary was a Cornish variant of a construction style found across Great Britain. Formerly common across Cornwall, only two survive nearly complete today: the ''Plen'' in St Just in Penwith () and Saint Piran's Round near Perranporth ().〔(''St Just Plain-an-Gwarry''. ) Historic Cornwall.

The theatre area could be used for local gatherings, sports events, and production of plays. Cornwall culture had a type of play called miracle plays, written in the Cornish language, that would were meant to spread Christianity. To capture the attention of the audience, "the plays were often noisy, bawdy and entertaining."〔 The most important work of literature surviving from the Middle Cornish period is ''Ordinalia'', a 9000-line religious verse drama which had probably reached its present form by 1400. The ''Ordinalia'' consists of three miracle plays, ''Origo Mundi'', ''Passio Christi'' and ''Resurrexio Domini'', meant to be performed on successive days. Such plays were performed in a plain-an-gwarry.〔
==St Just==
The St Just plain-an-gwarry is a large circular space, encircled by a 2 metre high wall of stone. There are two entries into the space.〔 In November 1878 the ″Plane-an-Guare″ was restored under the guidance of several gentlemen including Mr W C Borlase. The outer wall was exposed and several loads of stone were brought up from Boscean. By December 1878 the ″renewal″ of the outer wall was almost complete. The restoration was funded to provide relief for the unemployed due to the closure of local mines. It is central to the celebrations of the annual Lafrowda Day festival.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Welcome to the Plen Project )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=St. Just in Penwith )
