Pentre Ifan, overlooking the Nevern Valley in Wales, is a splendid burial chamber with a giant capstone perched on three uprights. Pentre Ifan means Ivan's Village and it is also known as Arthur's Quoit. This monument dates back to about 3500 BC. Local legend tells of fairies seen near the site, described as looking like children in soldier suits with red caps.
