Following the partial destruction of a scheduled round barrow near Talsarn in the late 1990s, a geophysical survey was commissioned by Cadw in 2009 to assess surviving remains. The survey revealed that substantial below-ground features persist, including a sub-circular ditch with traces of an inner bank and mound, and possible further funerary features. Additional archaeological features were identified nearby, such as enclosures, pits, and ditches, although their date and function remain uncertain. Despite surface damage, the results confirm that important archaeological deposits survive, though they remain vulnerable to ongoing ploughing and other ground disturbance.
