Gorsedd Circle, Bailey Hill This Gosedd Circle was laid out in 1922, for the proclamation ceremony heralding the National Eisteddfod visiting Mold in 1923. The circle is on a levelled area of Bailey Hill's outer ditch, originally built as part of its defences in the twelfth century. Gorsedd Stones (Welsh: Cerrig yr Orsedd) are groups of standing stones constructed for the National Eisteddfod of Wales. They form an integral part of the Druidic Gorsedd ceremonies of the Eisteddfod. Each stone structure is arranged in a circular formation typically consisting of twelve stone pillars, sometimes from the local area and sometimes, the stones have been brought in to represent the Welsh counties. A large, flat-topped stone, known as the Logan Stone. <span class="nowrap"><a title="http://news.bbc.co.uk/local/northeastwales/hi/people_and_places/nature/newsid_8659000/8659622.stm" rel="nofollow ugc noopener" href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/local/northeastwales/hi/people_and_places/nature/newsid_8659000/8659622.stm">Link</a><img style="margin-left:2px;" alt="External link" title="External link - shift click to open in new window" src="https://s1.geograph.org.uk/img/external.png" width="10" height="10"/></span> - BBC North east Wales <span class="nowrap"><a title="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gorsedd_stones" rel="nofollow ugc noopener" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gorsedd_stones">Link</a><img style="margin-left:2px;" alt="External link" title="External link - shift click to open in new window" src="https://s1.geograph.org.uk/img/external.png" width="10" height="10"/></span> - Wikipedia
