What is recorded here
Carn Caca is a small upland peak in the Neath Port Talbot area, likely rising to around 200–300 metres. Its name, derived from the Welsh *carn* (cairn or stone heap) and *caca* (possibly a personal name or descriptive term), suggests a prehistoric or early historic origin, though specific folklore or geological details are not widely recorded. It contributes to the regional landscape character and may be part of a broader network of upland features in the South Wales coalfield area.
