Calling Caealun

close

These photos of the cairn at Maen Penddu are fantastic, but are they actually the cairn?

On this web page, "Tal y Fan - A Lost Community", there are photographs and a description of the same site, but here it's described as a Peat House dating from the Middle Ages...

The only cairn I can see on Coflein (SH73847359) is described as, "a turf and heather covered cairn 7m diameter and 5m high with a slight depression at its centre". This doesn't seem to fit the photos on TMA.

If Caealun's not about, can anyone else shed some light on this?

Hi Kammer

Can anyoneShed some light on this was probably a good turn of phrase! As these are old peat drying sheds from the Iron Age.
