1. Battlefields Trust records refer to a battle in 1263 on the "Blorenge Mountains"; no further information is available but there may be a connection with the battle(s) (nprn 404986) mentioned below (Blorenge is some 3km to the south west of Abergavenny):
Peter of Montfort stoutly resisted a Welsh attack at Abergavenny, led by Gronw ab Ednyfed and the princes of south Wales, in late February 1263. Source: J.E.Lloyd, A History of Wales, vol II, 1912, p.731. Other sources suggest that Roger Mortimer and the Marchers counter-attacked and defeated the princes of Deheubarth at Abergavenny in March 1263.

2. National Grid Reference SO 272 111 is at the centre of a large walled enclosure annotated on Ordnance Survey mapping as 'Garn y Gorfydd' or 'Carn-y-gorfydd'. This has been translated variously as 'cairn of the battle', 'cairn of the victory', and 'cairn of the bodies', suggesting that there may have been a battle in the vicinity. The enclosure is also recorded as a post-medieval field system (nprn 67353); according to the Ordnance Survey (SO21SE1) there is much scattered stone in the enclosure but no visible antiquity.
