Coity submitted by hamish on 21st Aug 2005. You come past the castle bearing round to the right, about 1klm there is a lane on the left.Find somewhere to park and walk up the lane to a gate and follow the path on the left to another gate. A few mtrs past the gate is a stone stile, go over and turn right along the hedge to the Burial Chamber.

Cae'r-hen-Eglwys

Site Type: Standing Stones

Cae'r-hen-Eglwys submitted by hamish on 21st Aug 2005. I had a hard time looking for this, the os ref. is out. I wandered about a massive field looking in the wrong place, it should be SS875809. The access from the road is difficult with dumped rubbish and glass. Once you have trodden down the nettles and dock the stones are great.

Waen Llechi submitted by hamish on 14th Aug 2005. This is looking at the west facing side of the stone which is well up on the side of the hill.It's a bit of a pain to get to but there is a stile on the roadside and a rather wet climb to the stone.

Harolds Stones submitted by hamish on 25th Nov 2006. The three stone of Trellech, ancient, yes, I shouldn't think Harold even saw them. Difficult to park but well worth the effort. The strange figure is me in dowsing mode, but it is not compulsary to walk like that.

Caer-Dyni submitted by hamish on 10th Nov 2004. I stopped off at Criccieth for a break after a trip round the peninsula and saw this marked on the map. What a lovely rather sad place hidden from direct view, perhaps that is why it has survived. This pic was my first sight of it.
