The memorial consists of the remains of two chamber tombs from the Neolithic period (c. 4,400 BC - 2,900 BC). Chamber tombs were built and used by local farming communities over long periods of time. There seem to be many regional traditions and variations in shape and construction.
The two sub-megalithic burial chambers lie in rock-strewn open moorland on the sloping terrain northwest of Garn Llidi, at the westernmost point of the ridge. For more information, see e.g. More colorful
