Harold's Stones

Standing Stones

Folklore

As hamish mentions, there is a story that Jack o' Kent hurled the stones from the top of Ysgyrd Fawr in a competition with the devil - I just thought I'd point out that this is the Welsh name for the anglicised 'Skirrid' - which links with the idea above that the stones may be aligned on this mountain.
