This is in the field by St.Non’s chapel, facing out to the west and the sea; there seems to be another stone in the banked hedge..

Carn Treglemaes – 3 tombs or cromlechs lie within a kilometre of this impressive rocky inland outcrop
Capstone seems to be pointing to the small island of Carreg Trai
this second capstone is fallen but Glyn Daniels thought that it might rest on the ledge shown in the picture..
facing down into the valley
View of both chambers.
the two horizontal stones that point towards St.Catherine’s valley.
Probable barrow on Kelston Hill -see notes
This is taken from the path above, looking down into the barrow as they would have come down from the ridge.
WKLB and Silbury hill on the path down from East Kennet
A leafy view of one of the largest longbarrows
Barrows seen from WKLB, except for the one hidden behind the hedge.
Lansdown camp, presumed Civil War defence (17thc) remains of all the Bronze Age barrows stacked against its side. 22.10.05. all these stones have now been removed presumably as hardcore for a carpark the race course is building!! slow attrition.
Barrow at east entrance of fort.
Littledown Fort; bank and ditch south.
Maes Knoll seen from Stanton Drew Great Circle.
Probably a nautilus fossil. Its on the adjacent entrance stone opposite the ammonite.
“The Wheel of Time or the Perpetual Calendar of the Druids”
This stone stands at the crossroad at Llanrhian. Four kilometres south west of Carreg Samson.
The stone incorporated in the wall, was probably moved from the field adjacent, which lies under Kelston Hill.
Remains of dumped barrow. This barrow which lies on the edge of a field, must have very near Kelston Round hill. On the ridge above there is another much larger barrow, that was excavated in 1911, this particular barrow seems to focus itself on the Kelston hill.
Barrow at entrance to Littledown iron age hillfort.
Pair of barrows NE of entrance to Littledown fort
Another “lost” stone, strategically placed at an old crossroad, that takes the path from Bath down to the river and Swineford (Bladud and his pigs). This “green” (roman, probably earlier) curves round Kelston Roundhill
This stone hidden in an old sheepwall, was probably pushed down the slope from above, a bronze age burial ground.
The ridge of Carn Llidi. Near this ridge is another tomb, Coetan Arthur, whose capstone is said to resemble the ridge shape. This tomb is 1.75 kilometres from car park.
Information taken from Neolithic sites of Cardiganshire Carmarthenshire And Pembrokeshire by Geo.Children and Geo. Nash.
This is a photograph of the double chambered tomb (or two separate ones) that lie above the coastal path half a kilometre from Whitesands carpark (SM7352 2789). WW2 platform in front. One tomb abuts the rocky face, and the capstone that has fallen could have rested on the rock face. Behind me is the view out to sea, so the tombs would be facing towards Carn Llidi.
