Rolleston Cross submitted by Anne T on 21st May 2019. Close up of the stump of the Rolleston Village Cross. Pastscape tells us it once had shields carved into it, although these are no longer visible, and they do not tell us who these belonged to. Dated to the 14th century, the local stocks were once said to be nearby.

Moel Ty Uchaf submitted by DJMace on 9th Nov 2020. Very nice example of a cairn circle in a spectacular location and well worth the hike. A straight walk up the hill along a rough track after passing through two metal gates. Continue on up and the circle is on left hand side. You won't be disappointed.
