10 - Prehistoric Monuments
Henblas Cromlech
Three colossal boulders , the largest being 4 x 3.5 x 4.5m high.
This is a cluster of natural Glacial erratics rather than an outsize megalithic monument.
The stones may have acted as a natural cromlech,
attracting burials from the Bronze Age to the Roman Period.
