Carn Wnda Standing Stone submitted by enkidu41 on 3rd Jun 2004. SM 9315 3901
A massive 7' high standing stone. It has an almost square cross section with a circumference of over 11'. There are 2 large slab stones lie close by so this may not be simply a standing stone.

Parc-y-Cromlech submitted by enkidu41 on 3rd Jun 2004. SM 9422 3907
Better known as the Penrhiw Burial Chamber this damaged tomb has a large rectangular capstone resting on 3 uprights. It was re-erected some years ago.
Shots from other angles would have been taken but a small herd of highly inquisitive bullocks is not conducive to creative composition or a steady camera hand!
