Caer Lêb, Archaeological enclosure near Brynsiencyn, Wales.

The pentagonal enclosure measures 61 meters by 50 meters and features two defensive banks with ditches surrounding the central area.

Excavations in 1866 revealed Roman artifacts, including Samian Ware pottery, a coin from Emperor Postumus, and a circular hut with a paved floor.

The name Caer Lêb translates to 'Leaven Castle' and represents an integral part of Welsh archaeological heritage on the island of Anglesey.

Visitors can access the site through a dedicated parking area that accommodates 4 to 5 vehicles along the adjacent roadside.

The inner defensive bank remains notably intact, reaching heights of up to 2 meters, while the outer bank displays fragments on the northwest and southwest sides.
