Photo of Toby Driver standing on a low Bronze Age barrow in the middle of Pen Dinas hillfort with views over Aberystwyth.
Photo of the path up to Pen Dinas hillfort, a green strip cut into a heather clad hill with the south gateway of the hillfort showing as a cut on the right hand side of the photo and a Wellington monument showing on the skyline. The fort was excavated in the 30s and again in 2023
What a joy to be taken around Pen Dinas by @tobydriver.bsky.social as the first stop on the Society of Antiques Annual Wales field trip
