| Pen-y-Coed Maen Hir | Standing Stone (Menhir) | Wales | Carmarthenshire | Visited | 28th Apr 2011 | 3 | 3 | It's tempting to believe these three adjacent features (Standing stone in wall; Cairn; Recumbent standing stone) are all related since the two stones appear to have been on opposite sides of the cairn.
This stone can be accessed from open common land across a few hundred metres of rough grazing f... Read More |

The stone can be seen from the field boundary with open common land to the NE but actually lies... Read More |

| Penyrheolddu Ring Cairn | Ring Cairn | Wales | Carmarthenshire | Visited | 28th Apr 2011 | 1 | 3 | It's tempting to believe these three adjacent features (Standing stone in wall; Cairn; Recumbent standing stone) are all related since the two stones appear to have been on opposite sides of the cairn.
I couldn't really confirm the presence on the cairn. There was a vague raised circle of gorse g... Read More |

| Banc Crucorfod Round Cairn | Round Cairn | Wales | Carmarthenshire | Visited | 28th Apr 2011 | 3 | 3 | The photo is taken from the upland side. There is a wide field of rocks strewn over the downward side but they don't photograph at all well looking down.
I approached from the road to the west but had to cross a low depression. I'd imagine it's easier to approach from the slightly higher road to ... Read More |

| Hen Grofft | Round Barrow(s) | Wales | Carmarthenshire | Saw from a distance | 28th Apr 2011 | Beautiful view from adjacent hill with Carreg Cennen Castle in the background. Didn't need to enter field. | 3 | 6 | |||
| Carregdwfn Round Cairn | Cairn | Wales | Carmarthenshire | Visited | 28th Apr 2011 | 3 | 3 | The cairn site lies in the low part of the col between two small hills.
The centre feature is obvious and there is definitely some kind of circular pattern to the surrounding rocks.
The site can be accessed by first walking along a public footpath on a farm track from the east and then 90m SW al... Read More |

| Ffairfach Standing Stone | Standing Stone (Menhir) | Wales | Carmarthenshire | Visited | 28th Apr 2011 | 4 | 5 | The stone is also visible at a little distance from a gate at SN 6258 2160 which is in the same field as a public footpath. | 3 | 8 | |
| Ffynnon Gwenlais | Holy Well or Sacred Spring | Wales | Carmarthenshire | Saw from a distance | 28th Apr 2011 | 4 | I only viewed the site from the adjacent road. I will submit the photo I took showing some kind of concrete dam with a metal drain.
Access could be quite easy from the field directly to the north since a public right of way passes along its west edge and there is no fence on that farm driveway. N... Read More |
