Dinefwr Castle (Castell Dinefwr), while on the site of previous castles, is a thirteenth century structure. A round tower within the curtain wall and another in the inner ward remain, some of the buildings have been partially restored. The location is about one mile west of Llandeilo with views over the Tywi valley. The castle can be reached by footpath through the park of Newton Mansion known as Dinefwr Park and is about a mile south west of Llandeilo, Carmarthenshire, Wales.

Garn Goch (the red cairn) is the largest Iron Age hill-fort in Wales giving commanding views over the Towy Valley and surrounding landscape. A good supply of sandstone on the hill made it possible to build two forts close to each other-Y Gaer Fawr (the large fort) and Y Gaer Fach (the small fort). The stone ramparts on both are visible today. The  remains of previous Bronze Age activity remain including the large stone cairn on Carn Goch thought to be about 4000 years old. The site is situated on a road off the A4069 between Llandeilo and Llagadog. It is close to the village of Bethlehem where there are signs for the narrow road that takes you to the site.

Nant Tarw consists of two circles, a larger and smaller one, which are both are made up of about eighteen remaining small stones. There are a number of larger fallen stones near the circles, plus a separate group of stones near the largest circle. The site is located off the A40 at Trecastle between Brecon and Llandovery. The road leads to the Usk Reservoir and forestry plantation.

Trecastle Mountain (Y Pigwyn) has two circles made up of small stones. In the centre of the larger circle, which still has over twenty stones standing, is a small mound. To the southwest of the larger circle the smaller one is made up of five surviving larger stones. The site is close to the remains of two Roman forts and is located off the A40 between Brecon and Llandovery and via a lane just past Trecastle towards Cwmwysg and close to the Roman Road.
