Well I got the big papery map out and looked; Myndd C looks like its the end of the Presceli range, than you get the valley - Cwaum Gwaun and flattish land to the coast. You can see the coast by the way from the Presceli's. Forgot to say that a lot of the cromlechs near the coast are adjacent to, or focussed on rocky outcrops... Some information, no ones been on TMA to Cerrig Lladron, love to go back and do a week there - on horseback for getting around... Coflein "Remains of a stone row, situated within open moorland on a level terrace below Cerrig Lladron. The three stones are aligned from NNE to SSW, the row measuring 17m in length overall. The row is aligned with the large round cairn on the summit of Cerrig Lladron (PE298), which is about 200m to the SSW. The largest stone measures 2.5m in height, 1.9m in length and 1m in width. Its nearest neighbour, that to the NNE, measures 0.4m in height, while the stone situated to the SSW measures 0.7m in height. A further upright stone is situated immediately to the NE of the largest. It measures 0.6m in height and may have been displaced from the row." Reply | with quote |  3rd April 2010ce 14:33 In reply to: Re: Carreg Samson (tiompan) |
