Description
This circular structure or enclosure on the northern slopes of Mynydd Carningli measures about 10m in diameter and is set centrally in an irregular bell-end, generally 50-62m across and open to the west. This is probably a later Prehistoric settlement centring on a substantial roundhouse, although other interpretaitions may be entertained. It survives only as low earthworks that probably cover tumbled drystone walling. It lies within an extensive relict field system set on the northern slopes of Mynydd CarnIngli (NPRN 308761).
