St Winefrides Well
Date Added: 11th Mar 2012
Site Type: Holy Well or Sacred Spring
Country: Wales (Flintshire)
Visited: Yes on 1st Jul 2011. My rating: Condition 4 Ambience 3 Access 4
St Winefrides Well submitted by KiwiBetsy on 26th Nov 2004. Outdoor rectangular bathing pool containing the submerged St Beuno’s Stone which can be seen in the photo nearer to the front of the pool than the steps and hand rail in the rear left corner. The well chamber behind the pool is a fine example of late perpendicular architecture creating an almost square crypt covering the wellhead. Around the well, graceful columns rise to support an elaborate vaulted roof which in turn supports St Winifrede’s Chapel above. Once, steps led from the well up...

Cors y Gedol

Visited: Yes. My rating: Condition 3 Ambience 3 Access 4
Cors y Gedol submitted by TimPrevett on 24th Sep 2005. This was our last stop of the day, so lighting conditions were deteriorating rapidly. The best way I could get something out of this composite shot was to use a sepia filter. The collapsed chamber here (as so many in the area) is obvious. Fine views out to sea, and up into the mountains.

This is looking to SW. North Cairn just visible left hand edge.

Hengwm Ring Cairn
Date Added: 26th Sep 2014
Site Type: Ring Cairn
Country: Wales (Gwynedd)
Visited: Yes. My rating: Condition 4 Ambience 5 Access 2
Hengwm Ring Cairn submitted by TimPrevett on 18th Sep 2007. This is a delight not to be missed. If you visit the tombs at Carneddau Hengwm, this is just a few minutes walk away. Take it in, or you'll be kicking yourself. A small ring cairn, with outward leaning stones, and an internal ring recognisable in most of the monument. It appears also to be sited so as to give an impression of being on a ridge. Comparisons with Bryn Cader Faner, which is to the north on another good long, walk, are easy to make.

Caer-Dyni submitted by DavidRaven on 25th Jul 2004. Grid Ref: SH 511 383
A forlorn little burial chamber, near the railway line east of Criccieth.
The slipped capstone has a notch in it. There seems to be a significant number of smaller stones around the base of the rocks; almost as if it could've been the remains of a cairn?!
The stone that still supports the capstone appears to be a different rock type from the rest, like a coarse sandstone...

Country: Wales (Monmouthshire)
Visited: Yes. My rating: Condition 4 Ambience 4 Access 4
Virtuous Well submitted by Thorgrim on 20th Jan 2004. The Virtuous Well was formerly known as St Anne's Well. Situated in Trellech at SO503051, the well is one of nine that were once here. Each was reputed to cure a different malady. You should drop a pebble into the well and make a wish. If many bubbles appear, then your wish will be granted, if only a few then you will be disappointed.

St Martin's Church (Cwmyoy)
Date Added: 28th Mar 2017
Site Type: Ancient Cross
Country: Wales (Monmouthshire)
Visited: Yes
St Martin's Church (Cwmyoy) submitted by Sunny100 on 8th Oct 2011. In the church of St Martin near Llanthony there is a rare carved cross/crucifix. Christ is shown, quite clearly, in torment and agony, on the cross. The beautifully carved crucifix style cross was mentioned by the Monmouthshire Antiquarian J.M.Lewis in 2000.
The cross is early Medieval. It was venerated by pilgrims walking the pilgrims route to St David's. The church at Cwmyoy itself is of interest because it leans at different angles due to hillside subsidence.
Photo source: St Martin...
