I swear I had nothing to do with this, even if I wish I had. Anyways, Corbyn is a prick. Duw ffwc aye!
A fine 'playing card' stone for today's #StandingStoneSunday (Aubrey Burl's term for a standing stone which is a thin, flat slab): Waun Leuci, partway up the side of hill in Y Mynydd Du, an area rich with prehistoric archaeology.
Nearby is the wonderful Cerrig Duon stone circle with the Maen Mawr outlier and stone rows, round barrows and an enigmatic stone setting. It stands above the nascent Afon Tawe.
Visited June 2010.

A little stone in Bannau Brycheiniog for today's #StandingStoneSunday
Lower Neuadd stands in reedy grasses close to the Lower Neuadd reservoir, in the upper reaches of Cwm Taf Fechan (one of the sources of Afon Taf). There are some fine cairns further up the valley, as well as the magnificently placed monuments on the summits of Corn Du and Pen y Fan.
This visit on a very hot circuit of the mountains, May 2010. Portrait, needs a click.
