Cleiteadh

Chambered Tomb

Bovine excavation job: cows clambering on to the top of the mound have revealed the stones of the mound. The destruction will presumably get worse as this untended monument is left in the hands of farmers and the hooves of cattle.

Burial Chamber

Oops, shutter went off too soon! A bit of hair in the way, and the possible ex-cromlech stone is half cut out on the right. Sorry about that. This is the southern cromlech.

Eithbed

Dolmen / Quoit / Cromlech

Extraordinary stone, and a likely capstone. Long and broad but comparitively thin, similarly proportioned to the Pentre Ifan capstone. The black thing is a camera case put on to give a sense of scale.
