Pentre Camp, aka Pen-y-Castell aka Pen-y-Gorddin. From nearby this looks like just another grassy dome. You have to get into the air to appreciate that once there was a settlement here, and that's how I first spotted it - flying over my own house not 500 metres away. This photo taken from the top, looking down the Vynrwy valley towards Meifod on a glorious late spring evening.
