flat stone on their points, in form of a Brandart, called in Welsh
_Trwbad_; but these are now thrown down. Towards the south-west proceed
two rows of flat stones, six feet asunder, and thirty-six in length. On
digging here a Druid’s celt was found, and several other things, with
human bones, the teeth very perfect.
There is a sum of £26 in the hands of the churchwardens, the origin of
which is not known. It was received from the executors of the late
incumbent, who died in 1829. The interest is distributed among poor
women of the parish at Christmas.
