Roman-letter inscribed Stone, Trawsmawr, Newchurch

This late 5th - early 6th century inscription was first noted near the highway in the 17th century . By 1829 it had been removed and was eventually set up in the front court of Trawsmawr Farm where this photograph was taken. It is now in Carmarthen Museum. Amgueddfa Cymru has a cast of the stone in its collection.
