Summary edit

Description
English: Cylch yr orsedd Ty Ddewi This stone circle could easily be mistaken for an ancient site although it might have presented a hazard to wartime bombers landing and taking off from the former airfield. In fact it was erected in 2002 for the bardic ceremony at that year's Welsh National Eisteddfod which took place here. The stones are significantly orientated:

'The central Logan Stone is used as a platform from which the Archdruid conducts the proceedings. Facing it, at the east cardinal point, is the Stone of the Covenant, where the Herald Bard stands, and behind this are the Portal Stones that are guarded by Eisteddfod officials. The portal stone to the right of the entrance points to midsummer sunrise, while that to the left indicates the midwinter sunrise.' See http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/celynog/modern_circles.htm

The foot of a rainbow seen in this easterly view adds an especially numinous dimension to the scene.
