**Nant-Y-Maen Stone** submitted by geoffstickland : It is clear that the two pieces were once one solid stone. Coflein seems to suggest that it was a single stone as recently as 2014 and that the fracture was natural erosion along a fault line and not the result of vandalism. In its original state it was a very massive stone indeed. (Vote or comment on this photo)
