Hut Circles in Gwynedd

"Three hut circles in the form of circular/oval platforms, two of which are embanked, are located in the lea of outcrop exposures on the SE side of Mynydd Mawr. All are overgrown with bracken.
1.SH13912564: 7m in overall diameter, 3m internally, earthen bank 2m wide and 0.5m high.
2.SH13972564: E of 1, as above but more slightly embanked to 0.2m high, platformed to 0.4m high.
3.SH13962567: N of 2, platform 7m (NNE-SSW) by 5m overall, 3m across internally, terrace 0.75m high.

Although not especially well-defined, these huts appear to be relatively undamaged."
