Inscribed Stone
SW 426 352
Follow the path from Boskednan circle to this lane. The stone can be clearly seen in a field on the right. Carry on past it as there is a stile by the gate at the far end of the field. The stone is 1.8m high and the granite pillar is inscribed in Celto-British to signify that the stone marks the grave of the “Royal Raven, son of the Glorious Prince” who fought a battle and died here. The stone is believed to be originally a Bronze Age standing stone. The name of the stone means “stone of writing”.
Carry on along the lane
to where a sign and concrete steps lead you to the Mên-an-Tol
stones.
