On your map the name 'Carn Meanllwydros' is quite close to the location, could this be the name of these stones

Someone has changed the title, these are not the 'Carn Ferched Standing Stones' they are called the Preseli Standing Stones.

    The Preseli area is huge, most sites are normally named after the closest geographic feature or village.
