Tregwehelydd Standing Stone

Stryd y Facsen, Anglesey

Location Guide

View across grazing lands towards Maen-y-goron

Photo by Eric Jones

Maen y goron (= crag of the crown) is the white house across the valley. The restored
Melin Llynnon Mill at Llanddeusant can be seen middle ground and, in the
background, left, is Mynydd-y-garn (hill of the cairn).
These fields are used mainly for the grazing of sheep.

In this photo the stone should be to the left, and it may be the stone that can be
 seen on the left, with two sign board by it, that at first appears to be a cow

A single bronze age standing stone that has split into three sections and is held together by bolts and clamps.

There are no photos on Geograph, Flickr, or Google images, not in Wikipedia, and I can't can see in aerial photos.

The Cadw website has 2 images of it, but you have to wait long enough for it to load.

It is shown on one site as flat stone about 5ft high with two metal bands around it.

A CADW book says it is an east west ridge and stands out from surrounding fields.

If you have a photo of this stone please let us have a copy.
