We biked away from the standing stones of Penrhos-Feilw, to see if we could get to the "Cytiau'r Gwyddelod" huts marked on the OS map. We spotted a small stone next to the boundry wall of a nearby house. OS Ref SH22828106. Possible ancient standing stone?

Clifton Stones submitted by nicoladidsbury on 31st Mar 2007. Clifton standing stones.
A beautiful pair of stones, near to the villiage of Clifton. Access is quite easy, the path from the farm has been improved. A circular walk is possible from Clifton, taking the footpath via Clifton Hall, where you can visit a well preserved Peel Tower, which has been resorted but apprears to have kept many of its original timbers. Very impressive! The walk continues over the motorway, and through a number of fields on a very good path. The route swings eastwards, the...

Stobo Kirk standing stone

Stobo Kirk standing stone submitted by nicoladidsbury on 14th Oct 2007. Stobo Kirk
There is a very long stone in the fabric of the wall of the chapel. There is also a smaller long stone, which is the same colour. Could this be a fragment of the larger stone. And could this once have been a standing stone. There is a similar stone in the other wall. This is a very ancient site, and it is possible that St Kentigern chose is for his church because of its pagen importance, so it could be a standing stone. 2 miles to the NE are a pair of standing stones.
