Lle’r Gaer

Enclosure

CARL May 5, 2010

I visited this site last year although to be honest there is nothing to see – very shallow ‘lumps and bumps’ in a large grassed field. When I visited there was a very weather-worn hand painted wooden sign near the gate leading into the field where the enclosure is. But by now it has probably fallen down! Not really worth the effort in my opinion.
