A Bronze Age funerary cairn upon the western ridge of Mynydd Pen-y-Fal, the mountain more usually known locally as the ‘Sugar Loaf’ due to the profile it presents to Abergavenny. Having never seen such a loaf I’m afraid I couldn’t possibly comment....
Coflein has the following to say:
“Remains of two burial cairns....on the west-facing slopes of Mynydd Pen-y-fal. The westernmost cairn” – this one – “is situated downslope of the first. It is roughly circular on plan and measures about 8.5m in diameter and up to 0.5m in height. A stone built cist is visible within the centre of the cairn, measuring 1.35m from north-east to south-west by 0.6m transversely and about 0.5m in depth.
