Description SN 1343 3048 These are 2 standing stones but emphatically not paired. This, the S stone, is the only one of the two which looks to be genuinely prehistoric. It is over 10' high and has been cut vertically in half so that the northern face (the opposite to that shown here) is a smooth plane on which what appears to be a memorial plaque has been attached. The plaque reads: "Waldo 1904-1971 Mur Fy Mebyd Foel Drigarn, Carn Gyfrwy, Tal Mynydd. Wrth Fy Nghefn Ym Mhob Annibyniaeth Barn." Translation anyone?

Waldo, a poet of great reputation, lived in Mynachlog-ddu roughly translates Wall round my boyhood, Foel Drigarn, Carn Gyfrwy, Tal Mynydd At my back in all independence of mind.
