What is recorded here
The National Monuments Record of Wales records Cyfarthfia as Wreck from the Ôl-ganoloesol period. The saved point comes from the official national record. Inclusion does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
The Cyfarthfia was a vessel recorded in the National Monuments Record of Wales as a wreck from the early medieval period (circa 10th–11th century). Its remains, likely associated with coastal settlements or trade in the region, were identified through archaeological surveys, though details on its loss, cargo, or any lives lost remain unknown; it is significant as a rare example of early maritime activity in Welsh waters.
