Its not first time ive been here, but way back then
I was a bit underwhelmed, I dont know why, I really liked it this time.
The sun was as high as it gets this time of year
and the light seemed to be almost alive, sparkling in the water in the ditches, Ive not seen many square lowland hillforts, and maggie being a good dog and not wandering off.
Often overlooked by the nearby perfect burial chambers, but lumps and bumps can be cool sometimes too.
Although Caer Leb is a bit eroded and silted up it's still worth a look. A roughly square site with a lone stone stump just off centre.
I've read that Caer Leb was first thought to be a Medieval moated site but after excavations Roman coins were found so it was then attributed to them instead. Now after excavations at a similar site at Llansadwrn have shown it to be 2nd Century BC, Caer Leb is now thought to be originally Iron Age, and used at various times through the centuries.
