A circular arrangement of 28 stones, including 27 blue stones and a single central stone of red sandstone, surrounded by a low wall of earth and stone, situated in a peaceful and serene landscape.
Even though the stones are not an ancient monument and like other reviews not a lot of information about the formation at the site I came home and googled it and found this which is quite interesting on Wikipedia... "Gorsedd Stones are groups of standing stones constructed for the National Eisteddfod of Wales. They form an integral part of the druidic Gorsedd ceremonies of the Eisteddfod. The stones can be found as commemorative structures throughout Wales and are the hallmark of the National Eisteddfod having visited a community." Also the stones are in a lovely green space with a lake, great for families and dog walking you could spend a good few hours walking and enjoy a picnic, ice cream on site and parking fees are reasonable. Great day out.
A lovely spot within open coastal park just outside Llanelli. Easily accessible and great for walkers, cyclists and dog walkers both kids and adults.
Standard small stone circle situated within Sandy lake area. Nice to have a little walk to from our hotel nearby.
On the excellent coastal cycle route.
Very little information (could use a plaque) but lovely view of the lake makes this a lovely place to picnic, if you brought a blanket. If you are traveling on the coastal path this is a great place to take a break and watch the swans, herons and many species of duck.
Lovely walk along the sea front
Wheelchair-accessible car park
Wheelchair-accessible entrance
