This is a fabulous site. It is another where you follow the map and think you have missed the plot only to find this Welsh wonder.

I bumped into Robin Williamson locally and I told him I had been the previous week to see these stones, he casually replied that the Incredible String band used to live near here. Of course I knew that they had made a film and part of it was here (Be Glad etc)

What a great place to visit.

I’m going back soon and I’ll post some more. Chill out here look at the tin mine in the distance and dance around for a bit.

Fantastic.

Why can you buy postcards of Lanyon Quoit and yet in Wales nobody knows this exists except those in the know.

A classic of it’s kind with the fabulous cows looking on at all the strange visitors and their urgent visit to their stone neighbours.

Well worth a visit and much better for the soul than the nearby out of town shopping centres.

Visit relax and enjoy.

I found this by driving across Gelligaer common towards Deri and looking for the stone without a map, I looked along the horizon and felt the vibe and then saw the stone.

I’ll post some pics soon, Deri was Julian’s home town as a very young drude was it not?
