Croes Arthur Hillfort
Date Added: 8th Sep 2020
Site Type: Hillfort
Country: Wales (Carmarthenshire)
Visited: Yes on 8th Sep 2020. My rating: Condition 1 Ambience 3 Access 5
Croes Arthur Hillfort submitted by geoffstickland on 8th Sep 2020. There is little to see in this large open field. There is perhaps a slight swelling in the middle of the field. Set high on a ridgeway, the site would have afforded extensive views but lacks the defensive properties of many hill forts.
