The county gaol in Carmarthen was designed by the architect John Nash, and built in about 1790
It's been demolished, but fortunately, photographers from the National Building Record captured this image of the front entrance in 1933

A return visit today to take photos from a different angle has confirmed without doubt that this is the lost Great Orme #menhir. Compare my photo (LH) with the 1951 image (RH) on #Coflein for site NPRN420360. coflein.gov.uk/en/sites/420... #GreatOrme @stoneclub.bsky.social @megalithic.bsky.social

@forestcollectiv.bsky.social - Hey - got a more accurate location for this, or the cadw/coflein link? Trying to work out where it is :-)
#StandingStoneSunday is always funny when the stone is *much* smaller than it looks in pictures
for reference this barely got up to my waist
great sunset for it though 🌅

Last properly surveyed by @rcahmwales.bsky.social for the 1986 Brecknock Inventory, but no serious analytical work done since. Worthy of a fresh look. No excavation

Archaeologists don't just care about what's in the ground, they care about the ground itself too!
This beautiful plan was made during the excavation of Pen Dinas, Aberystwyth, in the 1930s. It labels the different types of soil found in different parts of the hillfort

I may have found a long lost #menhir during a trip up the Great Orme earlier. This stone at 53°20'20.6"N 3°52'00.6"W seems to fit the description of #Coflein NPRN 420360 coflein.gov.uk/en/sites/420... @megalithic.bsky.social @stoneclub.bsky.social #standingstonesunday

A few examples are utterly convincing as later prehistoric or Romano-British like these; others are more problematic

Initially, this might look like an unfortunate soul being pursued by a monster. However, the carvings might represent Adam and Eve. Either way, they don’t look thrilled about the situation
