Uncover the fascinating story of Neolithic chambered tomb at Barclodiad y Gawres as part of our series celebrating coastal heritage.
Join Dynamic Dunescapes and Adele Thackray from Cadw for a light overview of the Neolithic chambered tomb of Barclodiad y Gawres (The apronful of the Giantess) in North Wales. This talk will explore the folklore around this important archaeological site, and discuss the excavation, and the links across the Irish sea with the artwork.
