Ffos-yr-Haidal 1, Mynydd Eglwysilan submitted by Dodomad on 1st Sep 2023. A man who filmed himself damaging a monument up to 4,500 years old has been ordered to pay for its restoration. Heritage officials said Julian Baker ruined part of the artwork beyond repair.

Log Text: Easily overlooked and in danger of being damaged by tractors, this cup-marked stone sits in an unassuming location on Senghenydd common. It is easily overlooked and using the exact co-ordinates on a GPS enabled device is recommended.

The cup marks are evident, even in flat light, but a visit when the sun is low in the sky is recommended to add some contrast.

Log Text: An amazing site, but clearly one that is under threat from modern visitors deciding to have a go and hammer their own stones off. It was very upsetting to see that people are not giving this site the respect it deserves.

Site Type: Standing Stone (Menhir) Country: Wales (Conwy (Bwrdeistref Sirol))

Bwlch y Ddeufaen N

Bwlch y Ddeufaen N submitted by Supersequin on 15th Mar 2025. View looking north. This stone is smaller and more angular than the southerly stone. Lichen has turned it a lovely green colour. Unfortunately, the adjacent pylon detracts from the ambience.

Log Text: Smaller and less imposing than the southerly stone. The overall impression is somewhat spoilt by the adjacent pylon.
