Long Cairn

Fieldnotes

It took ages to find this longcairn mostly because of the long pipe filled dirt track which i presume will soon become a gas line from some far off no where, but just for today it was quite and all was well with the world . The warmest April since records began it was a warm and clear day, the barrow when I found it was covered in bluebells and when i tried to sit on a log a rabbit shot out of hiding and I nearly had a baby.
There are quite a few stones protuding above ground but only one big one, the barrow isn't on the hilltop which is only 80 yards away, if not for the big mature tree we would have splendid views to the mountains,
Mynydd Troed and Twmpa.
