Set upon high ground to the south of Merthyr Mawr Warren and its plethora of historic and prehistoric human settlement sits the probable ploughed out remains of a causewayed camp.... presumably discovered by air survey.

Hence nothing tangible to see at ground level, but I guess the fact that it can still be determined is enough.
