Site Type: Chambered Tomb
Country: Wales (Gwynedd)
Visited: Yes on 11th Nov 2004
Penarth submitted by hamish on 11th Nov 2004. This is as close as I could get, you can see the herd of young cattle on the right well they didn't take too kindly to me so I hopped back over the hedge.The farmer was happy for me to risk my life but I declined his invite. He was though very informative about the area.

Mynydd Cefn Amlwch submitted by hamish on 10th Jan 2005. SH230346
I saw this as I was driving past, I stopped at the head of the drive of the farm and went back to see if it was indeed what I thought I had seen. It is quite beautiful in its setting,it is protected by a fence but this does not detract from the ambience of the site. The views around are a part of its delight.

Bachwen submitted by hamish on 12th Jan 2005. This is the last of my pictures of this Dolmen, if you're in the area pay it a visit it's worth it. I said before about the pub,but if you're of a mind you can also visit St. Bueno's well just down the street from the Church it is said to be refreshing.

Site Type: Burial Chamber or Dolmen
Country: Wales (Gwynedd)
Visited: Yes on 18th Sep 2005
Rhoslan submitted by hamish on 18th Sep 2005. This is a short walk from the road, I was a little worried about the ladies in the field with some young. I have had some worrying moments in Wales. The Burial Chamber is just off the footpath and seems quite secure despite a crack in one of the uprights.

Moel Goedog 2 submitted by hamish on 24th Sep 2005. As Paul calls it "The Stumpy Stone". From here you leave your car and walk towards the ng cairn, or goback and find the stoines along the road.

Maen Llwyd (Gwynedd) submitted by hamish on 21st Aug 2006. I thought I would post my picture of this stone. It is largely similar to Angie's picture but a little greener.I was going to try and get nearer but didn't want to be lacerated on the wire. This is with my limited zoom lens.

Lligwy Burial Chamber submitted by hamish on 11th Jan 2005. Site in Anglesey (Sir Ynys Mon)
This is impressive, the capstone is spectacular and if you are of a mind you can get into the chamber - I didn't try, my knees being what they are.
