Cae'r Garn Round Barrow
Cae'r Garn Round Barrow submitted by geoffstickland : The site is easily viewed from the field gate beside a lane. (Vote or comment on this photo)
Round Barrow(s) in Carmarthenshire. Archwilio gives an 8 figure map reference for this site but in reality there is little to be seen at the site, perhaps a slight swelling of the ground. Perhaps aerial photography shows more? The site is in the corner of a pasture field in an area of intense, fertile agriculture so maybe the barrow has been ploughed down? The site is easily accessible, being immediately adjacent to a field gate beside the lane. The Barrow is now only about 12' foot across and less than 1' high.
