Pen-y-Wyrlod above the Afon Gwy/River Wye; the long barrow itself has been ploughed down, leaving these stones from its chamber exposed.
This visit May 2012.

Y Mynyddoedd Duon (the Black Mountains) in South Wales for today's #StandingStoneSunday
The wrecked Pen y Beacon stone circle, situated at the foot of the summit of the same name (Hay Bluff in English). Only one sizable stone remains standing, although there are numerous smaller stones buried in the turf. Tremendous views and sometimes an ice-cream van.
This visit May 2012 while walking Offa's Dyke Path.

Last stone standing in Pen-y-Beacon (Hay Bluff) stone circle for today's #StandingStoneSunday.
Rather forlorn next to a parking area now (although it does sometimes have its own ice-cream van), the circle stands at the foot of Pen-y-Beacon/Hay Bluff in the Black Mountains. It has great views all the way to Y Mynydd Ddu on a clear day.
This visit April 2010 on a walk from Talgarth to Hay-on-Wye along the northern summit of the Black Mountains.

A moody day in South Wales for #StandingStoneSunday.
This is Carreg Wen Fawr Y Rugos stone row (something of a rarity in this area), up on the limestone hills above Llangynidr, with marvellous views north across the Usk valley to the Black Mountains.
The row consists of a very long, tapering recumbent stone (if upright it would be over 2m tall) and at least 8 other smaller standing stones.
Visited on a drizzly day in May 2010.

Last summer I started on a long held ambition to walk the River Wye/Afon Gwy from Severn to source. After doing 70 miles of the #WyeValleyWalk a combination of train difficulties, worsening weather and finally Covid stopped my progress at Hay on Wye.
Delighted to be back on it today, a short 8 mile section of changeable spring weather and stunningly beautiful scenery between Hay and Boughrood, the Black Mountains an ever present companion.

Another of my very favourite standing stones for #StandingStoneSunday: Maen Llwyd (one of lots of stones with that name) may be the highest standing stone above sea level in Wales, at about 560m OD.
It's wonderfully situated in a natural amphitheatre, surrounded by ridges of the Black Mountains, below the Bronze Age cairn on Pen y Gadair Fawr.
This visit April 2010.

The eastern profile of Y Mynyddoedd Duon (the Black Mountains) in South Wales, on a winter's evening from the Malvern Hills, some 40 miles away. Temperature inversion fills the lower valleys with white mist. Pen-y-Fal (the Sugarloaf) is the lone peak far left, Pen-y-Beacon (Hay Bluff) the prow of the escarpment far right. In between are the summits of Pen Cerrig-Calch, Pen Allt-Mawr, Pen-y-Gadair Fawr and Waun Fach, the highest in the range.
