Gorsedd Circle The Gorsedd Circle is a stone circle in Fishguard, Wales. The Gorsedd Stones are a Welsh tradition of modern stone circles constructed for the National Eisteddfod of Wales. These stone circles can be found at several locations, including Aberdare Park and Anglesey. They are typically 20 metres wide and have 12 stones on the circumference with a level stone in the circle. A further stone is usually set back from the circumference; the central stone is called the Logan Stone. Coordinates 51.996431,-4.975040 Stone Circle Gorsedd Circle is a typical stone circle but has 13 stones on the circumference with one inset. It was erected in 1936 and has the names of the parishes inscribed on each stone. Ceremony During the opening ceremony, the Archdruid stands on the Logan Stone facing the Stone of the Covenant. Two stones mark the entrance and are called the Portal Stones. These mar k the midsummer and midwinter sunrises. Gorsedd Circle (no edit) Archeology7...
Boscawen-Ûn/Nine Maidens
Boscawen-Ûn in Cornwall and Nine Maidens in Devon are linked.

Both are stone circles, Boscawen-Ûn is an elliptical circle with a diameter 24.9 by 21.9 metres (82 by 72 ft). (The Gorseth Kernow was inaugurated at Boscawen-Ûn in 1928).
There are 19 stones on the circumference with a further one in the middle.
Angles
Here, the difference from the base is multipled by the difference from the 90° angle.
41×3=123°-90°=33°
41°-33°=8°
This produces a difference from base equal to 8° (about).
When measuring the angles the stones make about a marker point of 41°. Here the following are produced by measuring clockwise from this angle.

The following is an example of what these numbers and angles could be interpreted as. It is from an Almanac of daylight duration and angle for every day and month of a given year. The example used is 1952.

Differences from the angles are 1,2,3 or 3,2,1, and are measured from the 59°,72°,15° and 42° angles from stones that don't pair up.
(After pairing off all stones at 180°, the angles produced are 59°,72°,15° and 42°, with 33° produced as a subtraction.
The 1,2,3 numbers
(72-15)-90=3
(59-(90-33)=2
42-41=1
are produced from a subtraction).

The breaks () are from the stones that don't align.
The numbers of stones that don't pair are 59°, 72°, 15°, and 33°. These may also link to the date, as 15° is also a 1-hour rotation, thus producing a 1.
Taking this average angle and converting to years.
4.5÷1.55=2.903

In the same way, there is a 5° to 11° separation vertically.
This shows that they are linked, as the error produces the number 123/321.

The Nine Maidens stone circle is partially intact, but the cairn and cist have been destroyed. This is also an elliptical circle, although more tear drop and offset by 10° to the vertical.

Almanac
The Almanac lists the hours and minutes from local sunset, evening twilight, and the Greenwich meridian, against latitudes and months throughout the year. Here, it appears to correspond with January to April, similar to the year 1952.
Or on page 2 of this document, against 'apparent right accession'/'apparent declination'/'semi diameter columns'.

Nine Maidens
Nine Maidens
It has been suggested for the Nine Maidens that several of the stones may have been used for buildings with no rituals linked to them.
The stones add from 2° separation to 9° separation from west to east. Between 4° and 5° is a horizontal marker; this is east/west 1985–2019, marking maximum tilt.
Taking this average angle and converting to years.
4.5÷1.55=2.903
2.903×1000=2903 years
In the same way, there is a 5° to 11° separation vertically.
For clarity, the numbers are 2°, 3°, and 4°, (),5°,6°,7°,8°,9°.
And 5°,6°,7°,8°,9°,10°,11°. The link isn’t the numbers but what the numbers imply, which is measuring variation year on year with gradual changes. So by itself it doesn’t mean very much, but with Boscawen-Ûn links, the two, one simple and explanatory, and the other producing the numbers.
So, using the numbers from both adding together.
72×33÷59=40.27
40.27×15=604.07
2903+604.07=3507.07
So does this equate to
5.436° or 8.513°?
So (using 8.513°) calculating for obliquity.

So (using 8.513°) calculating for obliquity.
Obliquity/year×(3507+1985)
0.0000585366×(3507+1985)=0.321
0.0000585366×(3507+1985)=0.321
Using obliquity/year from above × (2903+1985) gives 0.29. A number that was in the wrong location is split as 2, 9.
This shows that they are linked, as the error produces the number 123/321.
The 123 or 321 indicates the correct direction of the interpretation.
(Almanacs are currently used as a reference)
It is also possible that the monuments were built shortly after 3507 bc, but 2903bc is more likely (the numbers were used for past reference).
This possibly gives the monuments a past referential interpretation along the lines of "complex could be mixed with simple."
Another Boscawen-Ûn standing stone is located a short distance from Boscawen-Ûn, at an angle similar to Nine Maidens in Devon. It probably only gives direction to the other henge.
