Description
' ... early plans show the houses, disposed around a large oval-shaped enclosure, facing a central green'
Dodgson in the Cardiganshire County History I (1997), 357
Called 'Talessarne Green' by Leyland (early sixteenth century), the settlement plan shown by OS County series 1st ed. (Cardigan. XXV.12 1888), hints at a curvilinear enclosure in the region of 80-100m across.

Can be linked, or associated with the possible llys at Trefilan (NPRN 401517) - with the Talsarn enclosure relating to a maerdref (bond settlement)?
