Coflein NPRN number; 403096.
On the side of the lane from Trecastle to Dan yr Ogof, next to a pull in, is a flattened circular platform. In the centre area is a ruined Cist. It is visible by an upright slab and a rectangular cavity, the rest of the platform mostly empty now, all evidence of any covering Cairn long gone, just a few small stones around the edges.
Extensive views to the East and the Central Beacons.
Just down the lane is the Tawey valley and its other Neolithic monuments.
