Description
An oval cairn lying in the valley bottom close to a small stream, recorded as RC204, page 112 in the RCAHMW Brecknock Inventory, Part I, published in 1997. It measures c. 6.5m northwest-southeast x 5.3m and up to 0.5m high with a flat top. The cairn is largely composed of small rounded sandstone. A modern cairn, NPRN 246478, has been constructed on top of the cairn towards its north side. When visited during Uplands Survey in October 2008 it was largely turf covered but exposed on the northwest side.
