Pont Sarn-las

Ancient Village / Settlement / Misc. Earthwork

thesweetcheat Jan 19, 2014

Formerly an extensive settlement of at least 8 roundhouses, only three now remain. Finds indicate a continuation of occupation into the Roman period.

The name appears to translate as something like “Bridge of the blue causeway”(?)

Further details of the site at Coflein.
