St Digain (Llangernyw)
Date Added: 23rd May 2022
Site Type: Ancient Cross

Visited: Yes on 15th May 2022. My rating: Condition 4 Ambience 5 Access 4
St Digain (Llangernyw) submitted by TimPrevett on 23rd Sep 2007. At St Digain's, Llangernyw, there are two ancient cross incised stones on the south side of the building, both crosses fave west. The design on the western stone is near impossible to make out without a guidebook to hand. There are also two rough, unshaped stones which appear out of place amongst the memorials nearby. St Digain's also has a yew reputed to be 4,000 years old, which is worth a look.

Maen Penddu submitted by TimPrevett on 5th Oct 2004. This stone appears to copy the contours of the hillock to its west. Significant, or accidental?

Ysbyty Cynfyn Stone Circle submitted by Johnny on 10th Oct 2001. Ysbyty Cynfyn "Stone Circle" (SN 752 791)
This readily accessible site is situated alongside the A4120 running south from Ponterwyd towards Devil's Bridge. The circle is not marked as an antiquity on recent OS maps but the church itself is easily found. Despite recent dissenting opinion, it has generally been accepted that this is an example of the early Christian Church adopting an ancient site, in this case an embanked Bronze Age stone circle, presumably in an attempt to "des...

Bryn Celli Ddu Cairn submitted by AerialCam on 20th Jul 2018. The Late Neolithic/Early Bronze age cairn from the air. Copyright: Adam Stanford
The new results also show that there was activity at a huge burial mound to the south of Bryn Celli Ddu, some 500 years later than the pit circle. The effort put into building this burial cairn must have been immense, as some of the stones used in its construction would have weighed over one tonne. The activity at the burial cairn shows the continuing importance of this landscape to prehistoric people over 1000...

Visited: Yes on 22nd Jun 2019. My rating: Condition 2 Ambience 4 Access 4
Caer Leb submitted by TimPrevett on 14th Apr 2004. Caer Leb is a rectilinear settlement enclosure, with double ditches and banks defining an area 200 feet by 160 feet. Some have interpreted it as a mediaeval homestead with moat (indeed, some of the ditches get very water logged). However, finds of a 3rd Century AD brooch, a 4th Century denarius of Postumus, and Roman pottery and quernstones date the site much earlier than mediaeval. Like the Din Lligwy Settlement, the CADW guidebook says it possibly has its origins earlier than the 3rd Century, ...

Site Type: Cairn
Country: Wales (Anglesey)
Visited: Yes on 23rd Jun 2019. My rating: Condition 2 Ambience 5 Access 3
Trwyn Du submitted by TimPrevett on 23rd Apr 2007. The visible remains of the Bronze Age cairn, on top of a Mesolithic camp and flint scatter site. The only excavated mesolithic site in Gwynedd now looks out on the Estuary in front of the Aberffraw Sands. In 7000 BC, this would have been looking out onto a river valler, with sea levels considerably lower. This is a top spot - the elements and nature up here were great. Even on a very windy, dull day, as the SE of the country baked in sweltering heat!
