     Is it in the little harbour formed by the breakwaters and the island just north of the pier in Menai Bridge?

You are spot on again Gwynant,     $good$ 
 it's near the boathouse on Ynys Faelog and the island I believe was up for sale last year.   The boathouse was in need of a lot of TLC but the boat was well past that.

It is the Cornish beam engine house at the Dorothea slate quarry, been there many times. 😊

You're spot on ME,       $good$

 it is the engine house at the Dorothea Quarry.   On the one occasion we have been there we were able to get the key to the engine house and have a look inside it.

A very good try Hollins but it isn't there.    You may have seen these stones if you have done this walk.     $walesflag$
