The Mynydd March stone, along with it's neighbours Buwch a'r Llo, has the easiest access of any standing stone in north Ceredigion. It's right next to the road, and there's no boundary fence.

The stone has two distinctive cracks running diagonal across it, presumably caused by weathering. From some angles it looks very strange, like some sort of a half peeled megalithic fruit. Of the three stones on the verge of the road, Mynydd March is the smallest and the easiest to miss as you drive past.
