Hello folks; Baz said there'd been discussions going on, so I've dug around and found it.
Below are copies and pastes, slightly edited, of what has been been discussed thus far.
Will we get a definitive understanding of what is going on here? Pooling our collective resources might achieve something; I've posted on The Portal Forums, too.

My source for so naming the "moelfre" feature was The Portal, and AndyB says the original source was the Burl books, 1976, 1993 (Rows), updated in 2000 and reproduced with permission.
A number of us have been banging discussions and research around, and it increasingly looks like that the feature labelled Moelfre - Stone Row / Alignment

is not. The grid ref is not right, CARN lists no such named feature, and the stones are E of the headland named moelfre. The evidence does not point in the right direction.
The matching find on CARN within 100 metres of the grid ref SH721746 is
