Carn Llechart Megalithic Complex
Date Added: 11th Jun 2012
Site Type: Modern Stone Circle etc
Country: Wales (West Glamorgan)
Visited: Yes on 10th Nov 2007
Carn Llechart Megalithic Complex submitted by sem on 10th Nov 2007. Site 1: View from Carn Llechart
Map ref SN69670627
Taken from the burial chamber at Carn Llechart, something can be seen in the centre of the picture just below the skyline. Was this a stone or maybe just a cattle feeder ? Even a pair of binoculars failed to decipher the puzzle.
Returning home, forays on the Internet showed nothing of archaeological value in this area and, until returning a few years later, I had no answer.

This is shown on OS maps as a cairn ring and has obviously been robbed out at some point.

It's dimensions are given as length=55m, width=20m and height=3m, but it is not until you see the two people standing to the left that you realise the true scale and magnificence of this monument.

Carn Caca Cairn
Date Added: 11th Jun 2012
Site Type: Ring Cairn
Country: Wales (West Glamorgan)
Visited: Yes on 30th Apr 2008
Carn Caca Cairn submitted by sem on 30th Apr 2008. Caca cairn seems intact but is difficult to find (and photograph) in the vegetation. The "lumps" in the background are the result of medieval quarrying and the flat stone roughly marks the robbed cist.

This stone is set at 42deg above the horizontal and it has been suggested to me that it may mark a moon-phase of some sort.

Cae'r-hen-Eglwys
Date Added: 11th Jun 2012
Site Type: Standing Stones
Country: Wales (West Glamorgan)
Visited: Yes on 15th Feb 2004
Cae'r-hen-Eglwys submitted by sem on 15th Feb 2004. The "Fort of the Old Church", as the name translates, lies near Laleston, South Wales. OS maps describe it as the site of the church of St Cewydd who lived c490AD. However the stones look older and the name may imply that people were aware of it's pagan past. SS875809

Bwlch y Clawdd
Date Added: 11th Jun 2012
Site Type: Modern Stone Circle etc
Country: Wales (West Glamorgan)
Visited: Yes on 22nd Nov 2005
Bwlch y Clawdd submitted by sem on 22nd Nov 2005. I can find no reference to this stone and it looks modern. However there is an abundance of Bronze Age and earlier sites in the immediate area, but all are hard to find due to the terrain and recent conifer forestry.
It appears to be made of old red sandstone and the weathering on it is beautiful.
It is visible from the nearby viewpoint.
