Cefn Coch or Druids' Circle, in thick fog, Penmaenmawr

High on the hill tops, nestled between low hummocks of old landscape, sits the Druid’s Circle. As you summit the hill, ancient figures suddenly become stones, instantly frozen but characters nevertheless. If you tune in carefully, you can hear them speaking to each other, whispering about the new person in their midst. I am very aware that my presence is recognised and when I walk away in the fog, I know I’m being watched. As I disappear from view, they move once again.

Cefn Coch is an embanked stone circle of 10 remaining large stones from around 13 originals, high upon the hills ((396m) behind Penmaenmawr in North Wales, near a prehistoric trackway and three other stone circles. There is a ruined entrance around 2m wide on the west side. Despite the name, it long predates the Druids as it was constructed in the Bronze Age (3300 BC – 1200 BC)

There is a ruined entrance 7ft. (2.1m) wide on the west. The interior is free from stones, save for a small modern cairn.' (RCAHMW 1956, 89-90).

Excavation in 1958 revealed cremation deposits

ABOUT THE PRINTS:

Glyn's prints are all produced on soft-textured, archival cotton-rag paper, using archival pigment inks. The manufacturer's estimated lifespan for these prints is over 200 years when behind glass & viewed under artificial lighting.

Each print is signed & titled by the artist, and the editioned prints are obviously numbered as well. Glyn limit's his print editions to short quantities, so you are purchasing much rarer artworks than the mass-produced prints seen in furniture & home stores.

Editions range from 3 to 30 copies in the A2 & A1 size, and just 5 copies in the A0 size.
