Bedd Porus

Bedd Porus submitted by TimPrevett on 18th Apr 2007. Looking east into the wilderness of The Arenigs.
This is a late Fifth or early Sixth Century Christian memorial stone, removed from its original exact location, but still in the vicinity. It is unusual in being away from any church or churchyard, instead, it is in the wilderness, near ancient routes, both Roman and Prehistoric. (Sarn Helen runs nearby, as well as the huge Llech Idris Menhir). Presented in a caged enclosure, with a crumbling cast of the original (which is in National Museum...

Log Text: Whilst you can park a lot closer to it,i walked up to it from the Bronaber holiday village (about a 30 minute walk)
The site was overgrown and decaying,with the replica of the inscription not only almost illegible but also with bits of it crumbled away......The word 'Porus' had dissapeared with only the lower part of the 'O' being possibly still there.The middle line was only just legible and i couldn't make out any of the lower line.
The memorial stone (inside it's iron railings) is in a glorious (if not it's it's original)position!
With Llech Idris visible to the southwest,it was still worth visiting Bedd Porus despite it's poor condition.

Log Text: Easily accessed. About a mile North of Bronaber on the busy A470 there is a small layby on the right. Opposite is a small gated road signed Bryn-Re. Walk down here for about 5 minutes and there is a passing place on the left with a couple of gates into the fields. The stone can easily be seen ( a couple of minutes walk) from the first of these gates.
Stone is only about 1.5m high and leans to the south west.
About 2m away is a much smaller stone.....perhaps part of the site.

Log Text: What a great chamber to visit.5 minute walk from where the car was parked in Rhoslan village.
Visited on a glorious sunny day, and despite it being a sunny week the inside of the chamber was still incredibly boggy/waterlogged which made it impossible to get 'under' the impressively large capstone. Despite this it was still a great visit.

The Andle Stone or Oundle Stone is a dominating outcrop of sandstone, standing alone in the middle of a field, surrounded by a dry-stone wall and a mass of rhododendrons. Approximately 5m high by 4.5m wide, the rock is supposedly carved with ancient cupmarks on the, modern graffiti, a relatively recent inscription and climbing holes on the sides.

As with the Andle Stone nearby it is covered in graffiti from the 19th and 20th centuries and has steps carved into the side to allow access to the top.
