Located in the SE part of the town centre park, the large, unhewn stones were installed for the National Eisteddfod held in Neath in August 1918. During this Eisteddfod, the Prime Minister Lloyd George received the Freedom of the Borough. The circle was also used during the 1934 and 1994 Eisteddfodau.
