Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The cairns of the sons of Owen Four substantial tors along the ridge are said to mark the graves of the sons of Owen Glendower, waiting for the call to rise up and fight for the land of their father.

The site is described more prosaically as follows in Cadw's Archaeology in Wales website http://www.dyfedarchaeology.org.uk/

'Carnedd Meibion-Owen historic landscape character area is a craggy out-lying hill surrounded by enclosed farmland. Towards the summit of the hill, at 244m, the several eponymous rocky tor-like outcrops lie in open bracken, gorse and heather moorland. To the north, west and south this moorland runs down to below 150m. On the western side there are some redundant hedge-banks. Woodland is beginning to recolonise the lower, northwestern slopes. Surrounding the moorland, and also providing some subdivision on the southern side are large stone-faced banks. There are no hedges.'
