Tŷ Newydd Burial Chamber
The size and shape of the Tŷ Newydd Burial Chamber suggests that the four metre layout of the chamber was likely created in the Neolithic (New Stone Age) by a community of agricultural farmers.

It's an ideal part of a route of ancient monuments on the Isle of Anglesey as a pleasant and informative day out.
