Ty'n Y Pant Cairn submitted by Bladup : These stones are found between the two cairns at SN92976331, Coflein says that they are a "stone setting" and that two recumbent stones NW side Gro Hill track. Stones orientated NE-SW. Largest approx. 2.5m long x 1m wide x 0.60m deep. Other stone at N corner of larger stone, approx. 2m long x 0.60m wide x 0.40m depth. In the background is the little and in my opinion modern Ty'n Y Pant stone.
