Description
Image showing the excavation of test pits forming part of the Carneddau Scheme. The archaeological investigation, which has been undertaken with volunteers, is a collaboration between the Eryri National Park’s Carneddau Scheme, funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund, and Gwynedd Archaeological Trust, funded by Cadw. It aims to identify the extent of the Neolithic axe-working landscape about Penmaenmawr and Llanfairfechan. The workings were previously thought to be focussed only on the area of Graiglwyd axe factory.
