Rhyndaston-Fawr Standing Stone is a prehistoric monolith located in Pembrokeshire, Wales, and forms part of the region's significant corpus of Neolithic and Bronze Age ritual monuments. The stone stands as evidence of the ceremonial and possibly funerary practices of prehistoric communities in southwest Wales during the third and second millennia before the present. Its specific form and positioning within the local landscape reflect the importance placed by these societies on marking sacred or significant locations, though the precise original function remains characteristic of many standing stones where ritual, burial, and territorial demarcation may have overlapped. The monument is protected under the Cadw record as Scheduled Ancient Monument PE266, recognising its archaeological and historical importance to the understanding of prehistoric Pembrokeshire.
