Tips from the Community

Zoe Evans
April 3, 2026, Gwal y Filiast Burial Chamber

This Neolithic Cromlech is just outside the small village of Llanglyydwen, west Carmarthenshire near the upper reaches of the river Taf. It dates from around 4000 B.C and consists of a 13ft capstone supported by four uprights with an opening facing the river below. The literal translation of its Welsh name means 'Lair of the grey hound bitch' but was more likely named after a 'Lair of Wolves'

September 20, 2022, Whitland Abbey Ruins

Between the 12th and 16th centuries, this was the site of a Cistercian monastery. Today, the abbey's foundations are the only part of it still visible, but well worth taking a look at nonetheless.

September 20, 2022, Whitland Town Centre

If you're interested in settlements with long histories, Whitland has plenty of intrigue to offer. Originally a Cistercian abbey was here, which survived until Henry VIII's Dissolution and the ruins can still be seen to the north east of the town. In 930 AD, it's thought that the first ever Welsh assembly was held here, featuring a group of lawyers and church officials.
