Description
Cropmarks recorded on 4th July 2018 during RCAHMW aerial reconnaissance show a univallate circular enclosure c. 50m diameter to the south-east of Eisteddfa. Although the enclosure has the appearance of a barrow, its south-east facing entrance suggests it is a later prehistoric defended enclosure or farm.

Discovered during the 2018 drought.

Recorded during baseline aerial reconnaissance survey for the CHERISH Project. ? Crown: CHERISH PROJECT 2018. Produced with EU funds through the Ireland Wales Co-operation Programme 2014-2020. All material made freely available through the Open Government Licence.
