Maen Llia submitted by cerrig on 24th Mar 2020. There are upwards of 7 stones in this row which is roughly aligned on the Northern face of Maen Llia.
Why it has been called Rhyd Uchaf by Coflein is a bit of a mystery?

The Hindwell Stone

The Hindwell Stone submitted by TimPrevett on 22nd Sep 2008. Possible standing stone in a field in the Walton Basin. Given the context of the area, and that it's a matter of metres outside of the northern line of the Hindwell Pallisaded Enclosure, it seems a credible assumption to think it of significance and a part of the amazing ancient landscape now largely lost. Look to the NW for The Whimble hill and to the E for Burfa Bank which are of similar shape to the stone in their outline.

Kinnerton submitted by TimPrevett on 10th Sep 2005. The stone in its place in the field; noticed the curved top to the stone, and then follow up to the horizon, and notice the curved hillock above it. Coincidence? Other stones in other places appear to mimmick hill shapes behind them... perhaps this lends more credence to it being a standing stone rather than a scratching post. Perhaps.

Llanrhaeadr ym Mochnant (Standing Stone) submitted by TimPrevett on 4th Jan 2006. The large re-used Bronze Age standing stone next to the road in the village. Once it was one of several stones here; now it's the only standing stone in the village.
If the archaeological database is interpreted correctly, the schoolhouse behind had a mound where the stone was formerly situated - before the school house was constructed.
Parking around the bend as seen, ideal for visiting the village.

Five cists arranged in an oval are visible from a field entrance west of Newport on the A487(T) in Pembrokeshire in SW Wales. Apparently the farmer does not mind considerate visitors entering the field to look.
May have been in use into the Bronze Age and covered by an oval mound.

Located close to the centre of Newport in Pembrokeshire with public access. Although called a tripod dolmen four uprights exist - only two of which support the capstone (which is said to replicate the summit of Carn Ingli to the south).
Excavations have revealed cremated bone, Beaker and Grooved ware sherds.

Four stones remain of this row - two of which make up gateposts - the other two are upright in the hedge that borders the road. The Outdoor Leisure North Pembrokeshire map marks only three but two further stones are located ~300m to the south east. Other stones can be seen or make up the roadside bank.
The gateposts look quite square unlike the other two s...
