Description
OAN field survey, located by GPS to an accuracy of +/- 1m. Heather covered cairn located on the gently sloping valley side to the west of Aber Sychnant about 70m south of Offa's Dyke footpath. It is approximately 7m in diameter and stands up to 0.6m high with a central depression up to 0.65m deep. The cairn could possibly have a ring around it as there is evidence of a depression to the south west. 12m to the south east is a large highly weathered squat sub-circular stone of about 1.1m diameter, this may be associated with the cairn or could just be an erratic. 2002/10/10/OAN/NW
