Brenig 6
Date Added: 8th Sep 2014
Site Type: Cairn

Visited: Yes on 24th Aug 2014. My rating: Condition 3 Ambience 4 Access 3
Brenig 6 submitted by TimPrevett on 20th Feb 2006. The small cairn of Brenig 6. Also reconstructed in situ, with posts denoting where posts contemporary with the cairn were discovered. Its low position in the landscape is puzzling. Most cairns sit high on ridges on spurs with good visibility in at least one direction. This does not. This view looks to the South West, with Maen Cleddau below the ridge.

Foel Fenlli submitted by TimPrevett on 27th Sep 2004. The north side of Foel Fenlli hillfort, a few minutes walk from the parking for Moel Famau.
The white dots on the lower slope are sheep, helping give a sense of the scale of the place. The road to Ruthin (from Mold) exits the picture lower right hand corner.

Moel Ty Uchaf submitted by DJMace on 9th Nov 2020. Very nice example of a cairn circle in a spectacular location and well worth the hike. A straight walk up the hill along a rough track after passing through two metal gates. Continue on up and the circle is on left hand side. You won't be disappointed.

Log Text: What a great chamber to visit.5 minute walk from where the car was parked in Rhoslan village.
Visited on a glorious sunny day, and despite it being a sunny week the inside of the chamber was still incredibly boggy/waterlogged which made it impossible to get 'under' the impressively large capstone. Despite this it was still a great visit.

Log Text: Easily accessed. About a mile North of Bronaber on the busy A470 there is a small layby on the right. Opposite is a small gated road signed Bryn-Re. Walk down here for about 5 minutes and there is a passing place on the left with a couple of gates into the fields. The stone can easily be seen ( a couple of minutes walk) from the first of these gates.
Stone is only about 1.5m high and leans to the south west.
About 2m away is a much smaller stone.....perhaps part of the site.

Bedd Porus submitted by TimPrevett on 18th Apr 2007. Looking east into the wilderness of The Arenigs.
This is a late Fifth or early Sixth Century Christian memorial stone, removed from its original exact location, but still in the vicinity. It is unusual in being away from any church or churchyard, instead, it is in the wilderness, near ancient routes, both Roman and Prehistoric. (Sarn Helen runs nearby, as well as the huge Llech Idris Menhir). Presented in a caged enclosure, with a crumbling cast of the original (which is in National Museum...

Log Text: Whilst you can park a lot closer to it,i walked up to it from the Bronaber holiday village (about a 30 minute walk)
The site was overgrown and decaying,with the replica of the inscription not only almost illegible but also with bits of it crumbled away......The word 'Porus' had dissapeared with only the lower part of the 'O' being possibly still there.The middle line was only just legible and i couldn't make out any of the lower line.
The memorial stone (inside it's iron railings) is in a glorious (if not it's it's original)position!
With Llech Idris visible to the southwest,it was still worth visiting Bedd Porus despite it's poor condition.
