New Evidence slowly unfolding
Jul 21, 2018, 09:29
A landscape slowly unfolds, the pages of prehistory become thicker as the archaeologists toil away!

Oooooh, exciting. I'm off there (Anglesey, not Bryn Celli Ddu) for me hols in September. Read this free to DL book when I was there last year 'The Megalithic Remains Of Anglesey E Neil Baynes' https://archive.org/details/cu31924029933011
when I was there last year. The part on lost megaliths/tombs suggested that there were a couple of long gone tombs next to Bryn Ccelli Ddu, some of which, the stone was broken up and used for a bridge and field wall. Fascinating little book, well worth a perusal.

Fascinating little book, so many cromlechs, Anglesey heaved with them. And I note the Reverend John Skinner has written something as well, luckily he wasn't on a 'lets excavate everything in sight' mood.

I'm so lucky to live on the edge of Bodmin Moor quite close to Minions where Megalithic remains abound. I guess the folk living on or near Anglesey feel the same way.
