Cwm Stone

Standing Stone / Menhir

postman Mar 15, 2008

There was no good parking place so I carelessly blocked a gate to the field and we dashed over, disturbing a flock of geese on the pond , it only takes five minutes to walk to it so we didnt get in anyones way. It’s a good stone, I liked it a lot, sure it’s waist high to a six year old but it seemed perfectly formed, like it had been born to be a menhir, and the view is superb even on a damp misty morning like today.
