ARTHUR'S STONE, a cromlech on the N slope of Cefn-Bryn, 9 miles W of Swansea, Glamorgan. It comprises a mass of millstone-grit, 14 feet long, 7 feet 2 inches deep, and about 20 tons in estimated weight, resting apparently on nine upright supporters, but really upon only four; and all somewhat sunk in a hollow crowded with rough stones. It ranks in the same class of great antiquities as Stonehenge. See Cefn-Bryn.
