Ammanford Gorsedd Stone Circle

Modern Stone Circle / Monolith in Carmarthenshire (Sir Caerfyrddin)

Modern Gorsedd circle probably constructed for the first Ammanford Eisteddfod in 1922.
Decades ago the circle used to have the hilltop above the church all to itself but more recently has been surrounded by new houses.
