Eglwyseg Kerb Cairn B
Date Added: 18th Sep 2010
Site Type: Cairn
Country: Wales (Denbighshire)
Visited: Yes on 4th Feb 2006
Eglwyseg Kerb Cairn B submitted by TimPrevett on 4th Feb 2006. Not as defined as its neighbour, the Kerb Cairn B is still obvious. Have taken it with the tree in for point of reference, but the trees up there were largely dead, or on their way - so this may not be there for much longer.

Country: Wales (Denbighshire)
Visited: Yes on 4th Feb 2006
Eglwyseg Mountain submitted by TimPrevett on 4th Feb 2006. Megaraks in the mist... the visibility up here varied from second to second, literally. I went to explore the panel on a large stone, turned around and my companion was disappearing, along with the standing stone. See main entry for details.

Brenig 6
Date Added: 18th Sep 2010
Site Type: Cairn
Country: Wales (Denbighshire)
Visited: Yes on 20th Feb 2006
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.

Tyfos
Date Added: 18th Sep 2010
Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: Wales (Denbighshire)
Visited: Yes on 24th Feb 2007
Tyfos submitted by TimPrevett on 24th Feb 2007. Be warned - this ram can seriously ruin any attempts at decent photography, archaeological curiosity, or having some moments of reflection. Whilst visiting this morning, I unwittingly secured the misdirected amorous intentions of a lone ram. Having gained permission to visit, I entered the enclosure, whereupon the ram approached, sniffed my leg, and demonstrated that he would like my leg to have his babies... I've never encountered anything quite as comedic from a sheep. For 10 minutes I was da...

Gop Caves
Date Added: 18th Sep 2010
Site Type: Cave or Rock Shelter
Country: Wales (Flintshire)
Visited: Yes on 19th Feb 2004
Gop Caves submitted by TimPrevett on 19th Feb 2004. The Gop Caves are surprisingly close to The Gop Cairn, from which they can be accessed. Discovered in 1886-7, the caves recess some way into the limestone of Gop Hill. On top of evidence of hyaena activity during the last Ice Age, a square enclosure had been constructed, enclosed by rubble, and contained the remains of at last 14 humans, dating across the Neolithic. Evidence of burning at high temperatures was found nearby. Usage of the caves continued for some time, with an additional 6 burial...
