Standing Stone / Menhir

This lonesome stone has a great view... I know not nothing else about it. I’m guessing at the name and it’s not on the OS map, if anyone knows it’s real name, post it here please.

Ffridd Fedw

Standing Stone / Menhir

Kammer Jul 14, 2003

A quick look at CARN tells me that there’s some sort of question-mark hanging over this site. Gwynedd Archaeological Trust list it as a possible standing stone, the RCAHMW don’t list it at all. That usually means that nobody can agree on exactly what the site represents.
