The Mount

CARL Jun 10, 2010

I visited this site last summer – for what it was worth. On the plus side it is easy to get to. I parked at Pen-Y-Lan farm and looked out over the field in which the site stands. Unfortunately there was nothing to see – other than a ‘levelled off’ area in an otherwise non descript field. Not worth the effort unless you happen to be in the area and have a bit of spare time.
