Crug Hywel / Table Mountain

Table mountain is rather grandiosely named, being just an outcrop on the south side of Pen Cerrig Calch (SO2122 : Cerrig Calch). It was used as a hill fort during the Iron Age - it must have been the obvious choice for that purpose at the time due to its large level surface surrounded by crags on almost all sides! Crickhowell (SO2118 : Crickhowell Bridge), the town below, was named after the fort. The area surrounding Table Mountain to W, S and E is enclosed farmland.
