BLESSING STONE

Local history and culture

On the banks of the River Teifi, the stone called "Blessing Stone"is known to have been used in pre-Christian times and may have been extracted from a cromlech. Legend has it that the spirit of the river appeared here in the form of a fish. When the monks settled in the village, they recycled the aura of this stone, blessing the fishermen before they set out to sea.

Today, we see nothing but flat stone, sheltered by shrubs forming a plant niche around it. Very nice view.
