Simple, beautiful shots in the January snow... with a classical accompaniment... at one of the most impressive Iron Age Hill-forts, Foel Drygarn. A familiar and striking feature locally, as it’s silhouette can be seen for miles around, dominating the East of the Preseli Hills.
The fortifications atop Foel Drygarn were built during the Iron Age, around two and half thousand years ago. But the most prominent features, top and centre, are the three Bronze Age cairns around which the fort was built. These cairns are over 3,000 years old, often referred to as ‘the graves of the three kings’. The main fort is made up of two roughly oval ramparts, stretching around to include a total of 227 hut platforms.
