Yes that is them, thanks.
Would anyone know if there is a monument inscription site for St Just, Zennor areas at all?

Not MIs, but this site looks interesting:
http://www.cornwall-opc-database.org/search-database/burials/

There is mention of MIs here, but you will need to do some digging to find out how to access them:
http://west-penwith.org.uk/wpenmi.htm

If you are looking for MIs for your Daniel family, keep in mind that not everyone had a headtone, and even fewer survived long enough to be transcribed .... As your family were tin miners, they may not have had the money for a headstone.

PS. Have you seen the (new) TV series "Poldark"? (Set around Cornish tin mining) - I highly recommend it.

Yes I know about that site, but wondered if there were photo's of graves?
Would be nice to know if some kind person has done some work in that area, taking photo's of church graveyards.

It appears that contacting the Cornwall Family History Society might be your best bet:
