Sat01Feb2025Fri28Feb2025Ruthin Library 15, Record Street, Ruthin LL15 1DS
A selection of material from a significant archaeological site recently excavated at Bryneglwys, Denbigshire.
The ritual monument developed over a long period of time, although the major phase within the early Bronze Age. Deposits of cremated bone were made, often accompanied by pottery sherds and, in some cases, flint tools.
The investigation of the ring cairn arose from the curiosity of the landowner and was undertaken by
the Clwydian Range Archaeology Group (CRAG).
Excavation of the ring cairn has been completed although work continues on analysing and recording
the findings from the investigation and on exploring the wider landscape.
The display shares some of the early findings with people living in the area for whom this is part of their
cultural heritage.
CRAG is a group of volunteers mentored by an experienced, professional archaeologist. -
