Log Text: Opposite County Gate car park there is a bridlepath. Follow this for 50 yards or so and you will see a grass path in front of you heading up to the top of the hill. The path goes off to the right from the bridlepath just before a signpost. Follow it almost to the top, where you will find the stones.

Take this left. Soon, to your left is a parking area, with a little sign and information board for the Culbone Stone:

Porlock Circle submitted by thecaptain on 10th Nov 2006. View roughly northwest across the circle, with the large prone stone in the foreground and the next largest stone on the western side in the distance.
The diameter is about 25 metres and I counted 16 stones, but many of these are just loose stones on the surface.

Bod Deiniol submitted by TimPrevett on 1st Jul 2002. Bod Deiniol SH368857
Visited Tuesday 15th June 1999
Access: We parked at nearby Llyn Alaw reservoir visitors' centre car park (some of the lanes to here are very narrow and bendy!). The stone I estimated about 10 to 11 feet tall, about 6 feet at its widest; covered in lichen. One side very smooth, and one side very rough.

Timber support which features in most photos on Portal has now been removed, so the more southerly chamber looks even better.
Delightful location - the walk over the field feels more like a procession, with the chambers looking more impressive all the time.

Holyhead Mountain submitted by TimPrevett on 14th Apr 2004. At the base of Holyhead Mountain, is this impressive, substantial group of hut circles. In the 1860s in excess of 50 buildings were recorded, but now numbers around 20.
Active settlement was on this location for sometime, and not all the remains seen are contemporary with each other.
Finds at this location, and very nearby, date occupation from mesolithic to Romano British times.
The hut circles seen are obvious, but there are a number of square features. The guidebook likens them to s...
