Hut Circle Settlement East of Cefn Bifor
Hut Circle Settlement East of Cefn Bifor submitted by TAlanJones : View to the east across the site. Note the more recent boundary wall that separates the huts. (Vote or comment on this photo)
This settlement consists of four hut circles in a line on the Northern shore of Llyn Cwmystradllyn. The four stone based huts are similar in form and dimension. They are thought to date from the Iron Age or Romano British period. A more recent stone boundary wall separates the huts i.e. 2 to the east and 2 to the west.
