Also known as: Bedd Arthur, Prehistoric Ritual Site

Bedd Arthur consists of a barely visible oval bank and ditch, with thirteen standing stones, none higher than 60 centimetres arranged inside along with two further fallen stones [1]. The stone layout measures around 20 by 10 metres [1]. The shape is not well defined and is generally described as sub-rectangular but has been described as a rectangle, a horseshoe, an oval and a pointed ellipse [1]. The site has not been excavated and is absent from authoritative surveys [1]. The site is in Eglwyswrw community, and is a Scheduled monument with legal protection from disturbance and is within the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park [1].
