Nearby stone circle | Forum — The Modern Antiquarian

I'm thinking maybe something has passed me by, being new to this forum but not to the topic. Maybe someone can help.
Last week my beloved and I visited, among other places, Carreg Sampson in Pembrokeshire. On our way back to St.Davids, travelling down the road next to the coast, we saw what appeared to be a stone circle on a cliff-side hill on the coastal path somewhere near Abereiddy ( I think!). I thought it looked a bit dodgy, a bit ouit of place, and can't find any record of it anywhere. Am I being a div? Can anyone shed any light on this one?

There are a couple of forts to the west of Abereiddy on the coast path , one of those maybe?

It could be a modern Druidical Gorsedd circle. There's quite a lot of them about now.

Ok, I think I've found it ( at last ) on google maps. On the Fford y Felin road west of Trefin, travelling towards Llanrhian, the circle is on the right on a small headland. (Unless that's a circle of sheep!)
Any info would be most helpful.
