The Hendre Waelod Dolmen is a Neolithic burial chamber. It is superbly situated on the gentle slope of a spur that runs down to the Afon Conwy (River Conwy). There is public access via the footpath which passes the site.

It has two tall portal stones at the eastern entrance which faces up the slope. One stone of a facade that adjoined the entrance can be seen next to the southern portal stone. The enormous chunky capstone has slipped however it is possible to inspect the chamber (and even get inside if you dare!) from the rear of the dolmen. Small earthfast stones around the monument are all that remains of the cairn that would have originally covered the tomb.

There is another possible tomb reported close by on private land. See your favourite archaeo database for details.
