Mynydd Carningli

A 347-meter volcanic peak in the Preseli Hills near Newport, Pembrokeshire, hosting one of the largest hillforts in west Wales, covering approximately 4 hectares (400m x 150m). The summit crags are enclosed by rough-built defensive walls with twelve gateways -- an unusually high number for a hillfort. The earliest phases comprise three conjoined enclosures, likely reflecting multiple periods of occupation and enlargement from the Neolithic through the Iron Age. Lower slopes contain about 25 Bronze Age hut circles and cultivation platforms. The 12th-century name 'Mons Angelorum' (Mountain of Angels) derives from 6th-century saint Brynach, who reportedly encountered angels here. The site is a designated SSSI.
