The Carneddau Hill Cairn is 19m in diameter, much robbed of stone and now only up to 0.8m high, but with depressions. The site was probably chosen for its commanding position with panoramic views. On top of the cairn are a stone shelter (NPRN 509837) and a modern marker cairn (NPRN 509838), using material from the cairn.
