Moth
You just have to have someone in shot, to show how tiny this thing is...even if they try to hide. Capstone’s a hefty bugger though!

While my back was turned taking photies, these numerous sheep were joined by several ‘lively-looking’ bullocks...
...at which point Moth fluttered off pretty damn sharpish, ending by hurling himself over the fence!

The larger and repaired dolmen/quoit/cromlech. Carrying on Julian’s tradition of pregnant women at old stones, here’s the ex-Moth partner Andrea with ‘the-bump-that-would-soon-be-Callan’....

There’s loads of stuff just south of this but I didn’t have time for any more....

The circle, looking more or less towards Lled Croen yr Ych (other side of fence)

A view from near Kammer & William’s ‘steep gradient’.... (No, the pics don’t quite match – sue me!)

Just above & right of centre. Spotted this strange bunch of rocks on a platform near Caer-dyni, but couldn’t get access without being just TOO obvious! (Doesn’t seem to be marked on Landranger for what that’s worth....)

I love photographing stones in the evening...you just can’t lose! (Tho crap scans don’t help much!)
Image credit: Tim Clark
The whole site is littered with massive stones that look like they were once part of the ‘monument’ or an associated one. There’s one faintly visible on the right of this ‘moody’ shot....
(Also note the slope – I wasn’t falling over, so it must’ve been like it!)

What can you say – there’s 4 of ‘em, they’re stones, they’re near Radnor, and they’re big buggers!!!

You can ‘feel’ where the circle would have been. Mostly I could ‘feel’ the rain trickling down me neck....

Gate from outside – the gateposts are more visible on Kammer’s shot from the inside, but here you can see the tops of them plus one in the wall....

Stones in wall – interesting even if not in original positions etc

Miserable looking me for scale – unfortunately tree hides top of stone but not top of me.....
Image credit: Tim Clark
The circle must have been a SERIOUS size – the flankers suggest an enormous recumbent stone
Image credit: Tim Clark
Looking east. Imagine a fully-fledged recumbent stone circle to the right of these flankers and the recumbent stone between them. It’d have been an absolute classic!

How can something that’s such a mess be so attractive?

First view of Bryn Cader Faner in the distance

If you see the Llyn Eidew-Mawr lake you’ve walked too far and should’ve turned left.... (worth the detour I reckon!)
Image credit: Tim Clark
The circle is on the way to Bryn Cader Faner. The sun was low as I made the walk in the evening light. This generally made for good photos, but unfortunately the circle was shaded by the hill....

Stunning view over the bay as you climb towards Bryn Cader Faner
Image credit: Tim Clark
Didn’t get closer. In the days when this was taken I didn’t like risking things like trespass. It’s become a bit of a hobby in itself nowadays....
Image credit: Tim Clark
Good job I never came here as a child growing up in Medway. I’d have got the blame for knocking it down.... “Oooh mum, I never touched it...Honest!!!”
Image credit: Tim Clark
The number of times I cycled or drove past this as a child or teenager is just scary. Never heard what it was so never went to see it – probably wouldn’t have been interested anyway.... Ironic that I should have developed such an affection for ‘dolmens’ in particular!
