Cliff side burial chamber

Ancient tomb known as Barclodiad y Gawres which translates to Giantess' Perch.
The tomb dates to the Neolithic period from around 3,000-2500 BC.
Two male skeletal cremated remains were found in the tomb when first excavated.

In the inner chamber the stones have patterns on them but they are now protected by steel bars from my understand it is possible to get a key and access the inner chamber by appointment.

Inside the tomb it has a strange feeling of calmness maybe just me getting out of the strong winds.

It is a nice walk next to the sea so if you are in the area it is well worth a walk.
The thumbnail artwork I created is the best example I could create of what the tomb may of looked like.
