SW Benllech; this sad and sorry chamber is nearly covered with vegetation swallowed up! The pictures say it all, really. Accessed by a footpath, and the chamber is to the left.

Lligwy Burial Chamber submitted by Jimwithnoname on 8th Sep 2011. Amazing dolmen and very unnerving sat underneath the 25 ton capstone. It's perched on very little it seems on the one side. The warden approached us as we sat eating at the site. He asked if we were thinking of stopping the night, which we were, but as he said. that's a no no. We respected him and moved on after our picnic. He was quite pleasant and only doing his job. Many people wild camp as he said, and set fire to crops or drive through hedges!

Log Text: I parked in a big layby on the next corner to the footpath and the nice farmer directed me to the stones. There are about three stone wall stiles that involve a bit of a climb. Then the stones just pop out at you on the left, and are pretty impressive.
It seems to me that this is only part of a monument- I suspect there were originally more stones in the adjacent field, which is now at a much lower level, the possible stone circle having been truncated by the later stone wall and half removed/ploughed out.
One of the stones is distinctly 'bent' in profile and has quite a male presence. It has quartz veins running through it which seemed to me to be significant.
Really pleased that I made the effort to see this-even though I was chased out the last field by a herd of bullocks!

Pentre Ifan submitted by Horatio on 22nd Jun 2020. A year later and back at Pentre Ifan for the solstice sunset, all on my own some (apart from a 13yr old Jack Russell this time) I Was expecting at least to see one other (person not Jack Russell) at this site for the sunset.
That morning I'd gone to see the sunrise at Gors Fawr stone circle and even left my house in the rain knowing there was zero chance of seeing a sunrise, I definitely was not disappointed, crap weather but I enjoyed being amongst the stones as the solstice sun rose, the cu...
