Mynydd Meiros Cairn.
Meiros could derive from the Welsh meirw, thus meaning Mountain of the Dead.
To the right can be seen another structure which appears to have gone unnoticed by the archaeos.

West Kennett Long Barrow submitted by sem on 29th Aug 2012. Home to the roost
The only shot I got of one of the swallows bringing food for the young in the barrow.
Standing inside was a marvellous accoustic experience. Total silence until the swallow entered and then all hell broke loose!

There are four entrances to this ring cairn corresponding to the cardinal points, but they appear to have been created recently by sheep judging by the Coflein description of the site.
