Llandegfan Standing Stone
on Anglesey.
Pen y Maen / Llandegfan Standing Stone SH553739
The Pen y Maen standing stone is close to the village of Llandegfan,
and is easily spotted because of the elevated position it enjoys.
I travelled on the A55 road from the Holyhead direction, turning
off just before the Stephenson tubular bridge, signposted for
Menai Bridge. Turning right at the top, I travelled a short distance
to Four Crosses roundabout where I went straight over onto the
A5025. After a little way I turned right immediately before Pentraeth
Garage, signposted for Llandegfan. After a short drive I saw
the standing stone on a hillside top to my left.
It is clear by the damage to the fence and stone wall that many
have gained access by this means, and I don't know the owners
of this field or how anyone should properly access the site.
Perhaps someone could let me know and I will post the information
here. It would be a great idea for CADW to provide an entrance
and signs to this quite impressive standing stone, which - and
I didn't have a tape with me is at least 8 feet tall.
