Description
This burial cairn, probably dating from the Bronze Age, is situated some 400m north of Clogwn Llwyd. It is one of a number of cairns in this vicinity, the closest (NPRN 309946) being some 90m to the south-west.

The cairn is a Scheduled Ancient Monument, measuring some 9.5m in diameter and up to 0.6m in height. The cairn has been disturbed in the past: a stone cist is visible in its centre and the footings of a drystone building overlie the cairn on its north-east side.
