Llanfechell 1
Date Added: 19th Sep 2010
Site Type: Standing Stones
Country: Wales (Anglesey)
Visited: Yes on 24th May 2010
Llanfechell 1 submitted by guile on 24th May 2010. I came upon these stones with a start, as they do resemble people talking.
I then spotted an upright stone and pile of rocks to the N.W. of these three. That stone turned out to be a cattle rubbing post and some field clearances in a small enclosure.
i was trapped in this enclosure then chased for my life from the field by by three feisty heifers - genius loci??? ;-)

Country: Wales (Anglesey)
Visited: Yes on 24th May 2010
Foel Fawr (Anglesey) submitted by guile on 24th May 2010. The remains of Foel Fawr tomb. This name is a bit misleading, the farm visible in the picture is Foel Fawr, access to this site is from the farm next door obviously named "Cromlech".
I was chased from this site by a very aggressive black cow - also in shot.

Din Dryfol submitted by guile on 16th May 2010. This must have been an awe inspiring sight, the remaining entrance stone is huge. So much is lost. This is a very special place, far removed from the 21st century.

Bryn Gwyn Stones
Date Added: 19th Sep 2010
Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: Wales (Anglesey)
Visited: Yes on 13th Jul 2010
Bryn Gwyn Stones submitted by guile on 13th Jul 2010. These two stones are huge. The taller of the two clearly showing the notches for roof timbers when it was used as an 18th. century cottage gable end.
Perhaps it was a ‘Ty Un Nos’ - or house built overnight. According to ancient laws, if you could build a house between sunset and sunrise, with walls, roof and smoking chimney, you could claim the freehold.
As ever, there seems to be a storm brewing in the mountains.

Visited: Yes on 17th Jun 2010
Bryn Dyfrydog submitted by guile on 17th Jun 2010. The stone at Bryn Dyfrydog or perhaps Llys Einion is a very unusual shape for an Anglesey standing stone but typically quartz rich.
I was told to come back when there was a full moon as the stone really sparkles!
