Gweddillion Cylch y Naw Carreg sy'n dyddio o'r Oes Neolithig neu'r Oes Efydd. Erbyn 1914 pum maen mewn hanner cylch oedd wedi goroesi ond yn fuan wedyn fe'u difrodwyd ymhellach gan ffarmwr lleol wrth iddynt gael eu diwreiddio. Pan ymwelwyd â'r safle yn 1968 tair carreg oedd ar ol a dyma'r sefylla heddiw. The remains of Cylch y Naw Carreg (trans. the nine stone circle) which dates from the Neolithic or Bronze Age period. When visited in 1914 five stones remained in a semi circle but, soon after, the site was further damaged with the dislodging of the stones by a local farmer. In 1968 only three stones remained and that's the situation today.
