Wiral Cairn
Wiral Cairn submitted by dooclay : With visible central disturbance (Vote or comment on this photo)
Cairn in Monmouthshire

From Coflein: A centrally disturbed cairn, 14m by 12m and 1.4m high. Period: Unknown. After much searching, I belive this to be what I was looking at, using Google maps I 'walked' the Offas Dyke Path to confirm location so hopefully this is accurate.
