Standing Stone in Anglesey
All I can say is do not attempt a visit here without a 1:25000 map! On a previous holiday to Anglesey I spent over an hour looking for this critter! I ended up hot & bothered, with scratched legs and an irate wife! As can be seen from the photos, the undergrowth here is considerable! Probably the most I have actually had to READ the map, ever, to locate a stone! Thankfully the stone was still upright, which makes the visit all the more satisfying.
