A pretty obscure ‘odd couple’ of cairns upon the south-western flanks of Mynydd Mallaen.

A walk around Kemerton Camp upon the hottest day of the year. OK, more like a stagger....

A panoramic perspective of the southern cairn, northern Carneddau...

The approach to – and arrival at – the Bronze Age cairn upon Blaen Clawdd Du, high upon the Cwmdeuddwr Hills, near Rhayader.

Where Industrial South Wales meets The Brecon Beacons great things were always gonna happen....

Wouldn’t recommend a visit in high summer, however. Unless you’ve shins of iron....

Just one of the extensive series of monuments gracing this little Carmarthenshire hill...

A pair of neolithic chambers – one collapsed – forming but a part of the incredible complex of prehistoric monuments upon this mountain, ravaged by quarrying upon its northern flank. To be honest, I had no idea anything else was here until a perusal of the map. One of South Wales’ – nay, Wales’ – best kept secrets.

A dishevelled, yet nonetheless mighty Bronze Age cairn crowns this, the western-most 2,000ft summit of the wondrous Y Mynydd Du. The incumbent bees were not pleased with my return, but there you are. They did finally accept my presence, given time.

A selection of The Citizen cairn’s favourite lowland sites from the past 10 years (with reasonably presentable digital images, that is).

Hardly any cairns, too.

Drone footage of the site.

Some more wanderings of The Citizen Cairn when looking at piles of old stones in Wales. Yeah, I know. Come up and see me, some time?

A selection of (mostly) Bronze Age upland cairns to be found under 2,000ft in that wondrous country know as ‘Wales’. They said it couldn’t be done. Hey, but The Citizen Cairn laughs in the face of adversity.

A photographic tour of the upland cairns – and some lower sites – of Pumlumon, Ceredigion by The Citizen Cairn.

Another summary taster of some of Wales’ upland cairns.

15 mins in the company of some of Wales’ Prehistoric funerary cairns located above 2,000ft..

Citizen Cairn’s somewhat random selection of those enigmatic ‘old piles of stone’. Guaranteed not to have included your favourite. Sorry about that :-)

A 360-degree vista from Garn Fawr, near Tregaron

The path starts by an enigmatic rickety bridge crossing the Maesnant...

An audience with the piper dudes upon Pupers Hill, Dartmoor

A quick glimpse of a rather fine hillfort in exceptional countryside.

A pretty substantial round cairn some way to the west of the summit cairn.

Looking across to Esgair y Llwyn from Esgair Rhiwlan

Brief panorama of this remote spot, the key to a visit to numerous sites in the immediate locale... or just to admire the cascading Afon Ystwyth.
