PeriodBronze Age
Description
An erect monolith or standing stone set on a rock outcrop and now at the centre of a modern clearance cairn. The stone is about 3.3m tall, 1.0m wide and 1.25m thick, tapering into a distinctive point from its base. It is not depicted on early editions of OS County series (Anglesey XIX.13 1889-1917).
Stones such as this are usually considered to be prehistoric, often Bronze Age ritual or ceremonial monuments. However, a more recent date and a more mundane function are also possible.
