Carn Caca

Cairn(s)

Carn Caca (Cairn(s)) by GLADMAN I must admit I found the monuments upon the western flank of Carn Caca a bugger to locate... for example these stones looked very suspiciously 'artificial' to me. However further investigation revealed no discernible arc... the actual cairns are behind the camera, uphill through a gap in a dry stone wall. In other words the Bronze Age people didn't want to take advantage of this rather fine view of the Neath Valley, setting their monuments back from escarpment edge. Incidentally the town is the industrial Resolfen, the distant peaks (skyline right) those of Fforest Fawr and Pen-y-Fan/Corn Du.
