Carnedd Llewelyn

Cairn(s)

Carnedd Llewelyn (Cairn(s)) by GLADMAN Archive scan almost looking into the sun (a rarity, this) from Foel Fras to the central peaks of Y Carneddau... quite possibly Britain's highest, most extreme Bronze Age cemetery? If there is a comparable grouping in Scotland I would love to know. Foel Fras, perhaps oddly, does not boast a burial cairn of its own. Whether it once did is a moot point. Whatever, the fact that people used to come up here to bury their dead blows my mind, it really does.
