Tŷ Newydd Burial Chamber, Neolithic burial chamber in Anglesey, Wales.
The capstone of this megalithic structure measures 4 meters by 1.8 meters with a thickness reaching 1.2 meters, supported by three stone uprights.
The excavations in August 1935 revealed a chamber measuring 2.8 by 1.2 meters, containing charcoal deposits and a hearth at its eastern section.
The discovery of Beaker culture pottery fragments and flint tools demonstrates the continued use of this burial site from the Neolithic into the Bronze Age.
The burial chamber remains open to visitors throughout the year, with access requiring a short walk through a stile near Tŷ Newydd farm.
The capstone surface contains prehistoric artwork in the form of cup marks, providing evidence of ancient artistic practices at burial sites.
