It is 2 miles (3.2 km) from the Cardigan Bay coast.Craig yr Aderyn is the site of an Iron Age hillfort, showing two phases of construction. The earlier phase comprises an upper fort enclosure of approximately 0.6 hectares, measuring 100 by 55 metres; the latter, a stone-walled enclosure of approximately 1.6 hectares, measuring 119 by 170 metres. The site has been excavated three times: in 1874, 1921 and 1967. Finds from the Roman period were discovered during the 1874 dig.According to local tradition, there were two castle watchtowers on the end of the rock and watchmen would raise red flags in case of danger.The two prominent faces of the hill are known locally as 'Y Palis Mawr' and 'Y Palis Bach' (English: the large stockade and the small stockade).The ruins of Castell y Bere, built by the Princes of Gwynedd in the 13th century, are nearby."@en }
