ABAB visited on 1st Jul 2021 - their rating: Cond: 3 Amb: 3 Access: 4 Only 4 stones visible, 3 seen easily with the 4th almost fully covered. Circle is overgrown with heather. Came across some game keepers who were not too happy that we were on the Moor. Seems area is being left to disappear to deter prehistoric wanders.

Nant Croes Y Wernen submitted by Postman : Not many stones and they're not massive, but I really liked this circle (Vote or comment on this photo)
Stone Circle in Denbighshire (Sir Ddinbych)
East of Cynwyd, past the forest either side of the Afon Trystion, up to the right, south of the footpath, by a stream (nant croes y wernen) and by a gate on the path.
A nice little circle of small stones on a hillock amongst the foothills of the Berwyns.
