I think this is the National Monument Record for it: http://www.coflein.gov.uk/en/s[...]9/details/CERRIG-Y-DERWYDDION/ "ion" is a plural suffix in Welsh, pronounced "yonn". So it seems probable that "Derwyddion" is the correct spellling. Something to do with oak trees presumably? Stone of the oak trees? ("Derw" = oak; "ydd" appears to be an archaic form of "yr" = the; ion = plural suffix). Reply | with quote |  30th June 2011ce 19:16 In reply to: aka Cerrig-y-Derwyddion? (Kammer) |
