Visited June ‘25
One of those sites that has always been high on my list to visit. We were vaguely in the area, and I really really needed to get to see it.
After heading south from Llanglydwen we parked on the verge of the track which runs down from the north side of the site. I had to manoeuvre carefully along the path which was muddy/skiddy but mostly covered in places by several fallen trees (in an earlier storm?). After perhaps 20 minutes or so I reached the clearing, with the dolmen coming into view.
A big smile crossed my face, as I realised this is going to be as good as I’d hoped. This one will stick in the memory – I’ll easily feel transported back to that clearing.
I walked around trying to take in the wider site – some outlying stones, the orientation of the chamber – but just wanted to sit and soak it up.
Such a visually pleasing monument in a beautifully isolated place.
This one is still on my list, it always looks amazing.
That’s always been my thought too, and it became one of those places that kept gnawing at me to visit, and I made it my priority although we were staying a little bit away from the area. It was worth the journey.
