Image of Y Garn, Nantlle Ridge (Cairn(s)) by GLADMAN

I doubt if a great many prehistoric monuments possess such a dramatic backdrop as the northern section of the Nantlle Ridge. But then I’m biased, seeing as I’m beguiled by this landscape anyway. Seen here is the eastern cairn, with Craig Cwm-Silyn, rising right skyline, bearing another such monument.
