Description
A pair of levelled areas, the example at the SE is about 6m in diameter and an entrance is marked by a large stone at its S. It is enclosed by a wide earth and stone bank between 0.6m and 1m wide. 20m to its NW is another similar site, more oval in plan and about 4m x 8m. This site has been cut through by the building of the incline connecting the Cefn Coch and the Berth-Lwyd gold mine works. Probably medieval platform house sites.
