Pont Scethin Double Cairn
Date Added: 5th Oct 2019
Site Type: Cairn
Country: Wales (Gwynedd)
Visited: Yes on 6th Mar 2019
Pont Scethin Double Cairn submitted by w650marion on 6th Mar 2019. Hunting for the Pont Scethin Double Cairn is good fun for a while - it does not appear to be a double, and is not in line with the square walls of Tynewedd, a little further to the East. But scouring the area, this is the only obvious candidate! So I hope it is right!

Cup Marked Stone, Gwerncaernyddion
Date Added: 5th Oct 2019
Site Type: Rock Art
Country: Wales (Gwynedd)
Visited: Yes on 8th Jun 2019
Cup Marked Stone, Gwerncaernyddion submitted by w650marion on 8th Jun 2019. We walked past this massive squarish flat-topped boulder at the side of the road, only to find later that it was in the Archwilio archaeological record as a cup marked stone! We dashed back with high hopes and gently brushed away the sheep droppings, but the cup marks were not easy to see. A few drops of drinking water filled the ones we found, and made them more easy to photograph.
Clockwise from top left -
1. Massive stone at the side of a road which meanders through a sheepfield

Log Text: Coflein led me to believe that there were four mounds from a bronze age cemetery nearby on this side of the road. I don’t believe it! I think the aerial mapping project just saw a trick of the light, and invented them!

Log Text: Lovely ambience at this cairn due to the unusual but clever situation. It’s encircled by low rocky outcrops, then in the distance, surrounded by a bowl of mountains. The builders took great care over this. We didn’t want to leave!

Log Text: Path from Eisingrug the wettest I've seen in 30 years visiting. Waterproof boots, gaiters and bog prodders essential. Return journey was via the hut circle settlements on the slopes above the path. Much easier!
