Palaggiu alignement

Palaggiu Alignement submitted by nicoladidsbury on 3rd Sep 2004. Alignements de Palaggiu
The alignments stretch across the countyside like a battleground of soldiers. The site is close to the sea and there is a theory that the statues were some sort of magical deterrent to invaders.

Penrhos-Feilw submitted by nicoladidsbury on 15th Feb 2007. Small stone near to Penrhos-Feilw
We biked away from the standing stones of Penrhos-Feilw, to see if we could get to the "Cytiau'r Gwyddelod" huts marked on the OS map. We spotted a small stone next to the boundry wall of a nearby house. OS Ref SH22828106. Possible ancient standing stone?

Stobo Kirk standing stone

Site Type: Standing Stone (Menhir)
Country: Scotland (Scottish Borders)
Visited: Yes on 14th Oct 2007
Stobo Kirk standing stone submitted by nicoladidsbury on 14th Oct 2007. Stobo Kirk
There is a very long stone in the fabric of the wall of the chapel. There is also a smaller long stone, which is the same colour. Could this be a fragment of the larger stone. And could this once have been a standing stone. There is a similar stone in the other wall. This is a very ancient site, and it is possible that St Kentigern chose is for his church because of its pagen importance, so it could be a standing stone. 2 miles to the NE are a pair of standing stones.
