Gwern-y-Cleppa

Chambered Cairn

Fieldnotes

This fine old barrow is near Newport and can actually be seen as you pass junction 28 on the right.
If you come off at junction 28 take the A48 towards Cardiff,at the next roundabout turn right to Cleppa Park estate.As you enter the estate there is a roundabout,go straght ahead on the left is a lane.Find somewhere here to park and walk up the lane.After you cross the motorway there is a gap in the fence on the left.Go down the field through the trees and up the hill where you will see the stones.Well worth the effort.
