(editted 5 july 2006)
I have had this image posted under Bryn Celli Ddu Gorsedd for some time. I have now decided to move the photo to Brynn Celli Ddu as well – as I used to consider it to be quite an important shot which could easilly be missed in its old position. Hope you get as much from it as I did and indeed still do – (but not anymore).
* This photo was taken from the top of the gorsedd, you can see the shadow of myself and Paul in the shot
* Notice how the shape of the shadow outlines the shape of the mound itself
After initial excitement about this photo, I have since read a brief account on the recent history of this site and its fair to say that the tumulous has had some reconstruction. This though does not detract the interest value and could be an insight into the minds of both the ancients and the modern restorers.
As a footnote the carved stone was found lying flat and the restorers stood it up.. but.. on the shadow there is a flat bit where the stone once lay.. mmmmmm

This stones lies in the field a couple hundred metres away, one of few on a windy path down to the river.
