Description
Remains of a cairn, probably dating to the Bronze Age, situated within open moorland in a prominent position on the summit of Foel y Geifr. The stone built cairn is circular in plan and measures approx. 12m in diameter and is 1-1.2m high. The site is grassy with quartz stones breaking the surface. An Ordnance Survey triangulation pillar has been erected on the cairn (NPRN526027), which could have led to some disturbance.

Surveyed as part of the Upland Survey Iniative in 2012.
