Couplands visited on 16th Oct 2023 - their rating: Cond: 4 Amb: 3 Access: 4
I came across them whilst out walking in mid October 2023, couldn't find any record of them online and submitted the info to Dyfed Archaeological Trust, who confirmed there being no record of them and have added it to Archwilio here.
Note: Two newly discovered standing stones - well done Couplands!
