The mound of stone blocks on top of a high stand alone hill that is right alongside of the Blue route 476? It is alongside of the south bound side near the Radnor area.

Looks to be some sort of Indian burial mound and I pass this alot but can't seem to find anything out about it.

There is also a decorative landscaping artwork section on the north bound side near this area sa well.

Just curious.
Don.

Stone monuments, including a large stone cairn atop a hill and a large crushed-stone image of a mythological Griffin on a hillside, were constructed at the Route 30 interchange to commemorate Radnor's history as part of the Welsh Tract.
