Lle'r Neuaddau
Lle'r Neuaddau submitted by postman : Looking west over the Rheidol and off to the misty hills. (Vote or comment on this photo)
A lovely little circle in the same form as Dolgamfa and Hinant, both physically and geographically. There are 18 or 19 stones none higher than a foot and in the circle's centre is a depression made by treasure hunters ? or the removal of a cist ? or something.

Not much of a view to the north as it's rising ground but very good ones to the south towards Hinant and further to Dinas hill fort, and the Afon Rheidol squeezes itself prettily through a narrow gorge very close by.

Another good site off the beaten track.

It is a short walk but it's not on a footpath, access is sought at the farm of the same name to the north east. Beware of dogs.

Cairn 400m N of Lle'r Neuaddau
Cairn 400m N of Lle'r Neuaddau submitted by HarryTwenty : Looking SE over the cairn. A big pile of boulders has been dumped on the southern side of the cairn. There is a lot of stone underneath the vegetation that points to it being a cairn and not just a dump site for the farmer and it is also in the area pointed out by Cadw so overall I am not 100% about this but I'd give it 99%. (Happy to be corrected). (Vote or comment on this photo)

Cairn 400m N of Lle'r Neuaddau submitted by HarryTwenty : Not 100% sure of this but it fits the bill and is in the right area, so I'd say 99% (happy to be corrected on this). Looking north at the western end of the cairn. Some stone is visible near the base of the mound. (Vote or comment on this photo)

Coflein "1. A kerb-ring, made up of 18 (formerly 19) uprights, defining a sub-circular cairn, 7.0m NE-SW by 6.5m; the kerb stones, up to 1.0m high, are somewhat dissipated; a hollow, showing possible cist elements, lies in the SW part of the interior."
