Rhydlewis Standing Stone Pair is a Neolithic or Bronze Age monument located in Ceredigion, Wales, comprising two upright stones that form part of the prehistoric ritual landscape of the region. The stones stand as evidence of ceremonial or funerary practices conducted during the later prehistoric period, when such monuments served communal religious and burial functions. The precise dating and original context of the pair remain subjects of archaeological study, though their form is consistent with standing stones erected across Wales during the third and second millennia before Christ. The monument is protected under the Cadw scheduling system as a site of archaeological importance, designated SAM CD217.
