Pen-y-Gaer (Conwy) submitted by pab on 27th Sep 2008. Site in Conwy (Bwrdeistref Sirol) Wales: Pen-y-Gaer from due west. While on an opportunistic drive up unmarked lanes above Llanbedr-y-cennin this week, I noticed and photographed the fine profile which (from the Portal!) I subsequently found out was Pen-y-Gaer. This shot was taken from the slopes 0.6km due west.

Newbridge on Wye

Site Type: Standing Stone (Menhir)
Country: Wales (Powys)
Visited: Yes on 12th Apr 2007
Newbridge on Wye submitted by pab on 12th Apr 2007. Newbridge-on-Wye: Pen y bont Standing Stone.
Stopped at this today, 12 April 2007, and it seems to have settled slightly since Shropshire Traveller's picture in 2005. It is difficult to be absolutely sure, but the angle of the holes on this face certainly seem slightly more acute, and the surrounding ground is definitely showing the signs of livestock using it for shelter.
RCAHMW reports it as having been found in a hedge in about 1910, so perhaps it was moved to its current location ...
