The shadow of the gorsedd is to me more important than the gorsedd itself. Visiting the site at the correct time is essential to see this phenomena.
Bryn celli ddu is an exact replica of the gorsedd shadow when the sun is behind you as you look towards the monument itself.
Similar to maes howe, new grange and stone henge the ancients have this way of perfecting light trickery..
Do not miss this when visiting it adds another dimension to an already facinating site..????

Hi Broen, my name is Alex Peach and I am just writing up my recent visit as a volunteer at the new dig at the Tyddyn Bach standing stone near Bryn Celli Ddu. While I was there I took a close look at the Gorsedd and other features in the landscape. I saw your picture of the shadow of the Gorsedd and it intrigued me. I wondered if I could have your permission to use it in my blog piece on the Gorsedd? fully attributed of course. No problem if you don't want to. My site is a not for profit hobby site, I already have over 20,000 words written on BCD across 5 posts. You can see my blog here.
