Arthur's Stone

Maen Ceti

A Neolithic chambered tomb on the Cefn Bryn moorland, capped by a 25-tonne stone and overlooking both coasts of the Gower.

Arthur’s Stone (Maen Ceti) is a Neolithic tomb dating to about 2500 BC. A huge capstone of roughly 25 tonnes rests on several supporting stones, and legend says it is the pebbles King Arthur shook out of his shoe. Cefn Bryn is the spine of the Gower Peninsula and offers wide views over the north and south coasts. Semi-wild Gower ponies are often seen grazing here. Park near the village of Reynoldston, then walk for about 15 minutes. It is free to visit.
