**Brenig 47** submitted by Postman : Looking northish across the cairn with big comfy chair stone (Vote or comment on this photo)

Round Cairn in Denbighshire (Sir Ddinbych)

North west of the main car park at Llyn Brenig, maybe a ten minute walk.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that this isn't the same place as the Tir Mostyn kerb cairns, of which I have heard nothing. But then I'd not heard of Brenig 47 either until I saw them on Victor Lindsays fine website. Beautiful views south across the Llyn unless like me you get accosted by over curious and unafraid sheep. On the south side of the cairn is a big comfy seat of a chair stone
