Description
Llech Golman is a large erect and rough stone set upon a slight hill. It is 2.4m high, 1.7m wide and 1.1m thick. Stones such as this are usually identified as prehistoric, often Bronze Age, ceremonial or ritual monuments, however, a more recent date and a more mundane function cannot be ruled out.

The stone is first depicted on the third edition of the OS County series (Anglesey VII.15 1921) on which it is not depicted as an antiquity. There is a small disused quarry some 50m to the north.
