Llanfechell 2 submitted by ShropshireTraveller

Standing Stone in Anglesey

We walked to this site from site 1; turning right on to main road, and then left on to a curving residential road. Access was over a stile (on the verge of falling to bits when we were there). The stone is clearly visible in the centre of the field, not too far from a pylon. The stone: about 7ft tall, up to 2ft deep and about 4 ft wide. Not as much lichen as other stones, but characteristically decorated by the local bird population.

This is the first view you get of the stone from stile that is located in a houseing estate. The stone has a narrow and wide side, quartz fragments can be seen on the wide sides. 07-09-09.
