Rather vague question about a feature of the Swansea skyline 06:18 - Jun 3 with 1646 viewssquarebear

I was at Parc Morfa yesterday, travelling along Brunel Way in the direction of the stadium. Looking up at the skyline to my right (in a north westerly direction) I saw what looked like three uneven pillars on the horizon in the distance. Never noticed them before.

I didn't photograph them, I'm afraid, but I'm curious to know what they are, and how long they've been there. Is something in the process of being erected / demolished? Anyone know?

(Zero thread, probably).

It's the remains of a shelter built by John Morris for his workers during the copper age.

We shouldn't all be tarred with the same brush you know!

Wow. Cheers both. I'm amazed I'd never ever noticed it. Father-in-law, who's lived here since 1970, hadn't seen it before either. An unobservant family we are :)

Really?

How the hell could you have missed Morris Castle for 40 odd years ?
