Caer Noddfa
There is little to be seen of this earthwork on the ground (and not much more from the air). It is thought to be the site of a Roman fort and was excavated in 1909. The Knights Hospitaller established a grange here in the late 13th century which became a place of sanctuary in the Middle Ages. Noddfa means sanctuary.
The hill in the background is Pen y Pigyns.

Milestone in Carno
This milestone is not marked on the map but probably predates the wall.
It shows 11 miles to Newtown and 17 miles to Machynlleth. Mach is a commonly used abbreviation for Machynlleth but I have yet to hear anyone refer to Newtown as Newt.
Someone has cleaned it up and repainted it since 2006 https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/6038359
