Found on the way back from a brilliant coastal walk from Rhosneigr to Aberffraw.. Nipped over the gate to bag the trig, but this was a sheep field and that was as good as it got.

Metal plug [indented letters]. Private. On land of property Pendefig, enclosed by roads just off A4080 near Llanfaelog. Probably a smallholding. Trig close to narrow lane at back. Disappointing location at edge of uninviting field - very dirty [horses], gate fastened with wire [need to climb over]. At least FB faces into field, so easily accessed.
