Pen-y-Wyrlod
Date Added: 19th Sep 2010
Site Type: Chambered Tomb
Country: Wales (Powys)
Visited: Yes on 20th Jan 2010
Pen-y-Wyrlod submitted by cerrig on 20th Jan 2010. This is the view today looking South West. It is now a very overgrown site,but originally, without the trees, it would have been possible to see the Black mountain, at the far end of the Brecon Beacons,50 miles away. A short walk to the North gets around the trees to confirm this.

Mynydd Troed submitted by cerrig on 23rd Jan 2010. Sunrise, Jan 2010. A very misty day. This monument has been given an Ambience of 3, and it is little more than a grassy mound now. But on a good day it's in a location that's hard to beat,the views are a bit special,especially in these conditions.

Saith Maen WSW submitted by cerrig on 24th Jan 2010. This is the view looking North. Saith Maen is contained inside the fencing. The ruts running down towards the camera were caused by "off roaders". The same was true of the other end of the fence but a deep ditch has been cut there now.

Banc y Celyn
Date Added: 19th Sep 2010
Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: Wales (Powys)
Visited: Yes on 25th Jan 2010
Banc y Celyn submitted by cerrig on 25th Jan 2010. This stone lies just to the west of the circle, and although not listed as belonging, I have included it here. It is about the size of a small kitchen table, approx 4 feet across, with what looks like a ditch surrounding it. At first I though it may be just sheep type erosion, but the ditch is completely grass covered and not worn at all, unlike the usual muddy tracks made by Shawn and co.

Country: Wales (Powys)
Visited: Yes on 14th Feb 2010
Bwllch Cerrig Duon Barrow submitted by cerrig on 14th Feb 2010. This is looking East, from the top of the mound. This is taken in August,this is a very rare clear early morning sky,with the mist in the valleys instead of it's usual spot hiding the hilltops. At this time of year the sun's rising position is on it's way to it's Winter home. It's moving quite quickly now, about 1/2 degree further South a day , rising to about a degree at the Equinox, and then slowing to nothing at the Winter Solstice, in the South East, before then swinging around back towards...

Harolds Stones
Date Added: 19th Sep 2010
Site Type: Stone Row / Alignment
Country: Wales (Monmouthshire)
Visited: Yes on 22nd Feb 2010
Harolds Stones submitted by cerrig on 22nd Feb 2010. The smallest of the 3 stones,and the odd one out, being a slab type rather than a pillar. From this angle it reminds me of the stories that are sometimes told of these stones, regarding someone being turned to stone for some crime or other.
This one looks to me like a hooded figure, walking away to the right,carrying a bag slung over the left shoulder.
