What is recorded here

Trostrey Castle Excavations reveals a prehistoric pit circle, long cairn and shrine buried beneath Monmouthshire soil. The marks suggest people gathered there long before written history, shaping stone and earth for rituals now forgotten. What they worshipped or feared has vanished, leaving only the shape of their devotion preserved in the ground.
