Standing Stones of Rhayader

Roger Hulm suggested putting some information about standing stones in his area on the Mid Wales website after visiting the BBC Bus in Rhayader in May 2005. Here are the pages he's put together for us.

Maen Serth

Maen Serth Maen Serth a single standing stone stands on the top of a hill called Esgair Dderw.	Maen Gwyngweddw Maen Gwyngweddw, the 'stone of the white widow', is made from crystalline quartzite.
Maen Gwerncynydd Maen Gwerncynydd stands beside a 1st century Roman Road running from Rhayader to Castell Collen.	Newbridge on Wye This standing stone at Newbridge on Wye may have marked a drovers crossing of the Wye.
Cefn Llech Farm This standing stone at Cefn Llech Farm is one of two stones in the Dulas valley.	Drum Ddu It is likely that this stone marked the ancient track across the 'bwlch' between Drum Ddu and Y Gamriw.
Llanwrthwl Church The stone in Llanwrthwl churchyard close to the south porch.	Banc Du Stone Circle Banc Du Stone Circle also known as Fowler's armchair after a one time squire of Cwmhir.
