Bedd Arthur

Such arrangements of stones are also found at a site known as the 'Churchyard' on Skomer Island, and were adopted at Stonehenge, for which and Bedd Arthur has been speculatively suggested as a prototype.

[2] It is one of many sites in the British Isles to be claimed by local folklore as the burial place of King Arthur.

A 2011 study of a particular group of the Stonehenge bluestones made of a Rhyolite material identified a geological match with an outcrop at Rhosyfelin, 3 kilometres (1.9 miles) north of Bedd Arthur.

[5] On the other hand, a 2015 archaeological studies at Rhosyfelin failed to identify any signs of quarrying, which appears to promote the possibility of the stones as glacial erratics carried east on an ice-flow, rather than a neolithic cultural link between the two places.

The site is in Eglwyswrw community, and is a Scheduled monument with legal protection from disturbance[7] and is within the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park.
