Llanfechell Stones, Historic Sites and Archaeological Sites Llanfechell, Anglesey - Wales where to go, what to see and where to stay in Wales

The Llanfechell Standing Stones are located 600m north west of the centre of Llanfechell, in the North of Anglesey, North Wales. The three stones are set on the summit of a low hill and are visible from a wide area. They are an unusual group of three stones of similar size seemingly facing inwards toward each other. They appear shaped to represent the human form, but maybe that is my imagination. Indeed I think William Shakespeare must have come to Llanfechell as these are surely what inspired the bard to write : Macbeth: Act 1, Scene 1. Enter three WITCHES. When shall we three meet again? In thunder, lightning, or in rain? When the hurlyburly's done, When the battle's lost and won. That will be ere the set of sun. Where the place? Upon the heath. ......Double, double toil and trouble; Fire burn and cauldron bubble. The stones are found on a public footpath but I would recommend visiting the stones from the south (village) side of the pathway, as the path from the north cuts through a field populated with bullocks. On leaving the village towards the north turn last left and the footpath is after the 3rd house on the right.
