RCAHMW/1925, 249, quoting Lhwyd's unpublished Ms. states that the site was `Near St. Owen's Well in Arberth parish, P-kshire', but it proved impossible to locate this spot. However, in amongst sketches made for two unpublished 18th century books, another drawing of the stone came to light from `Stoneditch' in this parish. Stoneditch lies about 500 yards south of the castle ruins. It is possible that during the 18th century `St. Owen' became contracted to `Stone' (Westwood/1882, 41; RCAHMW/1925, 249--250).
