A friend went up on Penmaenmawr on Friday and saw the ring cairn that you claim to be Circle 278:

and I agree with you: your photo is of Circle 278 and the others are of another feature (though I know not what).

In Prehistoric Wales (Lynch/Aldhouse-Green/Davies) there is a sketch plan of Circle 278 which shows it as a ring cairn with a wide bank within two circles of stones.

So, the next question is (as you indicated), "What the heck are the others of!?"

I suppose it would be useful if someone found it and took a grid ref ... I would offer, but I'm a bit far away :-)
