Disgwylfa Fach Stone 3
Disgwylfa Fach Stone 3 submitted by Geraint1 : Disgwylfa Fach Menhir 3, (recumbent) (Vote or comment on this photo)
A recumbent menhir. Approximately 2m x 1m x 0.5m. This, along with Disgwylfa Fach 1 (chambered tomb), Disgwylfa Fach 2 (small, still standing menhir), and Disgwylfa Fach Menhir 4 & 5, lie along a strip of land approximately 60m wide and 130m long.

Taking into account these 3 recumbent menhir have fallen - either via natural forces, deliberately by those who erected them (or their descendants), or vandalism, these may not be in their original positions so a more accurate alignment may once have been.
There are several other broken and recumbent menhir noted on Coflein in this area.
