Notes: Location near where original monument was found was formerly known as Pentre Poeth (to which the NGR refers). Its most likely find spot appears to be the pasture field centred at NGR: SN 8829 2645. The original location where it was sited may have been an ancient chapel, Capel Ilid, (NGR: SN 8903 2717). Original monument is now located in the British Museum.
