Llanfechell

Standing Stone / Menhir

Fieldnotes

Visited 10.9.12

An easy stone to access.
When you drive into Llanfechell look for number 15a Gorwel Deg.
To the left of the house is a stone stile – this allows you into the field where the standing stone resides.

The stone is approximately 7ft tall x 4ft wide. The stone is pretty thin.
It is clearly a popular perching place for birds judging by the amount of crap on it!
This is a good looking stone with veins of white quartz running through it.

While I was stood next to the stone it was a bit disconcerting to hear the fizz and buzz of the overhead cables cracking overhead.
I wonder what the ancients would have thought of it all?
