Searching CARN Puncheston Stone is in fact Carreg Quoitan , and St.Brynach's Stone is more usually called St.Brynach's Cross because they stuck a cross on top . So those two grid references check out . Both SN coincidentally .
But the listing you would have seen on CARN is a pigging mess . On another thread was mentioned the confusion of Parc Carreg and its alternates all over Wales . Here they popped up again , and other multiples too . Some look like variants for the same site and some very slight differences in grid references seem down to the different databases used . But trying to track things down it does look a little strange that places on RCAHMW at the very late SM numbers often have 'duplicates' at very early SN numbers on the likes of TMA and TMP and Megalithia !
My favourite site on the list is the schizophrenic "Homer Longstone ; Longstone ; East Longstone ; West Longstone" !!
Here are a few non-RCAHMW alternates :
TMP Parc y Mean Llwyd SN164397 , Parc Maen Stone SN113283 , The Longstone SN146094
TMA Parc y Garreg SN152114 , Parc Gerrig Hirion SN008388 ( Dinas crossstone ) ,
Mega Longstone SM893073 , Carreg Wen SN399340 .
Cerrig Meibion Arthur SN118310 may also be a Ty-Newydd it seems .
