Additional Information submitted by Drew Parsons in September 2010: There may be a third stone in this set, fallen but incorporated into the wall which contains the second stone. If you imagine it still erect then aligning the two at the wall from the free standing stone the line of sight is to Maen-y-bardd. However, this is not mentioned in the Coflein entry:https://www.coflein.gov.uk/en/site/303083
