Bronze Age finds at Llangollen's Pillar of Eliseg
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-north-east-wales-15007707

Remains dating back to the Bronze Age have been uncovered by archaeologists excavating the site of a 9th Century monument.

The finds were made during the latest dig at the Pillar of Eliseg near Llangollen, Denbighshire.

Possible cremated remains and bone fragments are now being examined.

The experts said the finds had complicated the picture regarding the site's historical significance and make it worthy of more investigation.

1. Cool. I've been there and have seen the Pillar of Eliseg.
What a coincidence, since Wales is not a place I ever thought I'd be.
