The ring cairn is to the right of the fence, and the two kerb cairns are to the left of the rightmost tree, and far right the big barrow.

Follow directions for the standing stone.
Two kerb cairns only ten metres apart and fifty metres from the ring cairn, one of the kerbies only has a semi circle of five stones one is much bigger than the other four, the other kerby has eight stones forming slightly more than a semi circle again with one stone bigger than the others.
When I found these two little beauties I was over the moon, especially when I spied the ring cairn not far away, the view over towards Moel y Gamelin takes in some of the rocky cliffs that the area is renound for, it is indeed lovely, BUT!! it’s on extremely private property and a visit requires letters to be written to the landowner and the CCW (like DEFRA)
