Located within fifty yards of the fast flowing A55, either park near Mcdonalds and run across the duel carriageway, or park near the roundabout at the Caerwys junction then walk up the gentle hill, fences must be jumped from either direction.
Still quite a big barrow with great views across the Vale of Clwyd and the Clwydian range with all it's hill forts, the duel carriageway detracts somewhat depending upon your outlook.
