Date Visited Wednesday 3rd May 2000
These two sizeable stones, likely barrow remnants, situated a couple miles west of Porlock, and several miles east of Lynton, are easily accessible.
Heading west from Porlock (the hill coming out of Porlock is VERY steep and not for the faint hearted!), keep an eye out for a fork in the A39. When you see the fork, keep going along the A39; to the right there are two car parks; take the second car park, as this puts you within one ...

Counted 30 stones, many under the heather & some lying loose on the ground. It is a large diameter circle making it impossible to photograph as a whole. There are four larger stones at the top end of the circle and four more the same at the bottom end.

SE from Combe Martin, along the A399, west of Parracombe, lie a group of standing stones. Off the A399, turn right onto Down Lane, which has a broad green strip up the middle for as far as you can see. We parked in front of gate, (a wind pump should be to your front left) to allow for space for other vehicles; however, we wer...

Quartz stones are everywhere, scattered around loose on the ground. Thanks to the book Ancient Exmoor I was able to follow these quartz rocks on through the hedge at the back of the photo, across the road and into the field the other side, and for several hundred yards distance after the road.

Heading east from Ilfracombe, through Combe Martin, along the A399, an unclear left turn is needed! If I remember correctly, there was a signpost for Silver Dale Nurseries, which takes you along the required road. As is often the case, the road is steep, narrow, and very bendy! After a while, there will be two lanes either side of the road, in short succession. First to the left, then to the right. V...

Due to the explicit request not to go off the path, I did not get much evidence of the stone row. This was maddeningly frustrating, given its imminent proximity! However, having studied the map, I went back to where the car was parked, turned left further up the track, and then left up another track, where it intersects the stone row (fenced off with barbed wire). Two stones were just visible to my left through the dense ov...

Bodfeddan Inscribed Stone

Bodfeddan Inscribed Stone submitted by TimPrevett on 3rd Jul 2002. Bodfeddan Inscribed Stone SH356745
Visited Tuesday 26th September 2000
This stone is behind a wall, immediately opposite a white bungalow on east side of A4080. We parked on a very wide verge further down the road.
The inscription is on the north side, and can be made out on the photo if not actually legible. The CADW guide to Gwynedd gives the inscription as CUNOGUSI HIC IACIT, meaning (The Stone) of Cunogussus. He lies here. It may have been a prehistoric monument, but is thought to be ...

E Rhosneigr. Heading north from Barclodiad, turn left off A4080; it's a short distance up on the right on the Llanfaelog to Bryngwran road. Parking is on a narrow grass verge, followed by a short walk. From the road, this dolmen looked like a thin slab on top of two brick columns; in fact it is an enormous lintel stone, with some original supporting stones - but blatantly held up by these red brick uprights! Despite the o...

South of RAF Mona; left off A5. This stone is another that had previously eluded me, but was pleased to have got it this time! A large layby on the left, so parking was easy. Take the gate into the 2nd field, and turn right. The stone(s) are parallel to the hedge on a rise.
Two large stones lie a short distance from each other; I could not ascertain if they were once together but given their prostrate position, they ar...

This settlement, NW from Moelfre and not far from the Lligwy burial chamber is huge! A short walk from parking space for maybe 3 cars, through woodland, this location can occupy a considerable amount of time exploring the nooks & crannies of this probable 4th century AD settlement.

Just east of Pentraeth; off B5109 Pentraeth to Beaumaris Road. These three stones were in a quagmire of a field when I visited shortly after several days of unusually heavy rain (even for Anglesey 2 inches in 24 hours!). The Three Leaps are visible over a wall decorated with barbed wire; and The Three Leaps is somewhat of a misnomer The Three Hardly Visibles would be more appropriate! If anything, the stones are no more than knee h...
