Among the Ancient

'Gwal y Filiast' or its alternative name 'Bwrdd Arthur' is a burial chamber believed to be over 2,500 years old. It would once have been surrounded by an earth mound with these stones forming the enclosure for the buried body.

An incredible piece of our history located in peaceful isolation in beautiful woodland in the Carmarthenshire countryside about a 20 minute dive from home.

One translation of this site's name is 'lair of wolves', because it's thought that wild animals once made their den between these Stone Age slabs.
What a fabulous find in the woods and your panorama photo is beautiful

@30pics4jackiesdiamond Many thanks for your kind comments. This is my first visit; it takes about 20 minutes walk to get there from the roadside. Thankfully I took the right paths in the woodlands to get there!!! ( I could have been searching for a long time as there are a number of different paths!).

@haskar Thank you for your kind comment - it was quite cloudy & dark when I went, so I am pleased with my shot considering the dark of the wood too.
