Description
Coed Clwyd cairns compromise two cairns, one visible as a stone feature, the other as a low earthen mound situated in an area cleared of trees. Earlier maps and records show that these two cairns were part of a large cairn cemetery with ten cairn sites recorded. The cairn at SJ16026127 appears as a low mound and is approximately 0.5 meters high. The cairn at SJ 15986132 measures circa 15 meters in diameter and has an outer ring of earth and stone. There are indications of a central stone cist.
